Thunder John Stikes Again! Lightning strikes not once, twice, thrice but 4x!

February 11, 2012
217,200 pushups completed
782,800 pushups to go
5,809 pushups ahead of schedule

Sorry for the sparse updates to this website.  Been a little busy keeping up with the Kardashians lately.  Can you believe that Chloe?  I cannot believe it either. 

Also, May Patrick and Jane now have another rival for my affections.  On January 19 at 1:35pm, what the Doctor thought was a routine gastric bypass for Mrs. Thunder John netted us one more mouth to feed.  Colleen Lynne Adduci is now 24 days old and doing great. Best practical joke EVER. 

Momma Thunder is marvelous and healing from her fourth Caesarian section... Little known fact:  English Bulldogs are always born via C-section, just like all 4 of my kids.  

I have three business trips scheduled for the next 11 days - not sure how I'm going to sleep in that soft, pillow top hotel bed without the steady serenade of an infant's mewling.  Mr. Sandman has his work cut out for him, what with the feather pillow cradling my head and the thermostat set to my exact specifications.  How can I be expected to harvest a decent night's slumber without a cascade of older children piling into our bed during the 6am hour?  We all have our crosses to bear, indeed.

Colleen will be reading Shel Silverstein by the time I complete this pushups odyssey.  Our Honda Odyssey will probably be scrap metal.  Will cars have wheels in the year 2020?  Probably, but will they have DRIVERs?  Futurists predict that companies with Google Maps-like apps will allow us to program a route into their car computer and sit back while the car communicates with other cars on the road wirelessly and drives itself.  Imagine setting the car to drive to Detroit and going to the backseat for a snooze... sounds great as long as you don't mind waking up without hubcaps.  Will the Cubs be chasing their 7th straight World Series crown?  Will dolphins learn to talk?  Will the Mayan prophecy of 2012 have made all these points moot?  We'll just have to wait and see.

Here's a picture of the little poop factory:



One more thing:  please, please PLEASE click the link below and join the Thunder John team.  Just donate $1, that can't possibly mean much, that's half a starbucks coffee.  I don't care about the amount but let's get the roster for Thunder John's Nothing But Nets team into the double digits!


Peace Out,

Thunder John
