Fame But Not Fortune

October 12, 2012
282,050 pushups completed
717,950 pushups to go
3,846 pushups ahead of schedule


Greetings Pushups Fans!  Time to circle the wagons again and take stock in my pushups quest.  The  pushups continue even though the blog posts have become sparse.  Since my last entry I have made my annual appearance for "walk to school day" at Lowell Elementary School in Wheaton, IL. 

Click on the link below to see a video of the appearance - be sure to make it to the 3 minute mark to see "The Interlude Dance". 

And yes, that's me, Thunder John underneath the lucha libre mexican wrestling mask.  Some say I've never looked better... and then they get pummeled.  Enjoy.

 
As you can see we have a lot of fun.  Hats off to Maryanne Minser, Phys. Ed. teacher at Lowell. She is a wonderful teacher and really gives her all for these kids.  Mrs. Minser is also Thunder John's most active promoter... when I go pro, she'll be my agent. 
 
Do YOU want to help kids?  Well here's an easy way to do so:  donate to Thunder John's Nothing But Nets Team!  You'll get a certificate suitable for framing delivered straight to your Inbox. 
 
 
Well, gotta go.  Point Break is on cable, and the little hand says it's time to rock and roll. 
 
Peace out,
Thunder John
