Good grief! 4 Luna-Tics on the DDC board and only 2 TimbukTooians. :(
Will we ever beat you at anything? :cry:

We love you guys!

And speaking of doing two things at once: We were at the park yesterday watching a juggler. He had Tim and Ben mix up a Rubiks Cube, and then proceeded to solve it while juggling. He used his one hand to move the cube squares around, and even had the cube actively involved in the juggling. And he solved it! And didn't drop any of the juggled objects! I couldn't believe it.

Hi, I just joined up with Luna-tics. If I was supposed to ask someone specifically, please let me know.

I've had my Model D for just about 2 months now. I'm trying to keep with a 5k meters a day routine (5 days a week). I figured that this will help keep me from slacking off.
I see that you post everyone's meters on a daily basis. I actually upload my meters once a week, since it's a pain in the @ss to unplug the laptop in the office, and bring it to the basement every day.

- Brian

Hi, and welcome, Brian. Signing-up is all it takes, specifically!

Quite a few people post their meters when it's convenient ... you're just noticing the daily-posting-over-achievers of the group ... :D

Facebook C2 Profile Box Users

Post by DuluthMoose » August 27th, 2010, 4:03 pm

I see that in the near future Facebook will no longer support the Concept 2 profile box on a Facebook home page. Facebook is promoting bookmarking a C2 logbook page as the replacement for this convenience. Although I did the bookmarking thing on my Facebook home page, I have second thoughts about doing so and am seriously thinking about rescinding the link. The link to my C2 logbook seems to be direct and without going through my C2 username, password procedure. And I would guess that anyone who has access to my logbook could make edits and deletions??? Anyone else have thoughts on this?

Well, school started this week - I know, almost 60 and going back to school? :roll:

The EMS course is going to take a lot of my time. Combine that with the ongoing Fire Department training and I have to make some serious time management decisions.

Sure, I won't be able to spend two hours or more on the Erg every day, but I will make as much time as I can when I can.

So keep your eye out for my dust on the horizon and rest assured that if not logging metres, I'm doing something for the public good.

Just so long as I stay ahead of Bart, I'm good :D

I think we all have way too much personal information on Facebook already (I stated my birthdate there as January 1, 1900 ... that'll fool evil-doers ... hah), so I just went ahead and deleted the link to Concept 2. The link was a novelty for the first 5 minutes, but after that I never looked at the box, and I doubt anyone else did. So, it's gone!
