318,625 pushups completed
681,375 pushups to go
5,920 pushups ahead of schedule
That's right. Three months since my last update. But you can't rush genius. It took Picasso 47 years to paint the Sistine Chapel. "Roam" by the B-52's wasn't built in a day. Shakespeare took several weeks to write the Magna Carta. And Thunder John doesn't come when called. You'll get these blogs when I'm good and ready if you please.
Good news - We have a new member in the Thunder John "Nothing But Nets" Team. Lynette Ackman, a co-worker and one of the smartest actuaries I know - has generously donated to the cause. Lynette is on her own personal pushups quest - to do 20,013 pushups in the year 2013.
In January, Lynette entered into a "pushups duel" with a hirsute
Contrary to this screen print, Lynette is no "loser", and I know she'll reach her pushup goal in 2013 (and gentlemen, I think she's single). HEY MYSTERY MAN - WANT A REAL CHALLENGE? THUNDER JOHN IS UP TO THE TASK. YOU NAME THE TIME, YOU NAME THE PLACE... I'VE DEFEATED JAPANESE ROBOTS IN PUSHUPS CHALLENGES (see blog entry 12/6/2010 - man, I used to be creative!) - I DON'T SWEAT YOU.
Well, that's all I got now. Got to get my beauty rest. I'm coming down with a cold. See you in another 3 months. If you don't hear from me by then... just wait longer!
