The Chicken Chase is coming
It seems like my A is in for a rude awakening when he runs the 1st Annual Stephen TheDog’s Chicken Chase. I have noticed he has been coming home limping a lot and seems to be having issues with his feet.
Recently he bought a new pair of running sneakers but I fear he is going to have a really bad day on the 25th. I don’t think he is anywhere near ready. Perhaps instead of sponsoring a race and signing him up I should have tried to get him on the Biggest Loser. I am pretty sure I could have gotten him up to at least 400lbs. Really if I got him to quit all activity I am sure I his weight would shoot way up. Maybe I should contact NBC and see what their thoughts are on me prepping my A for their show. I wonder how fat I would have to get him for NBC to guarantee a spot.
I am sure my A would be happy to eat subway, chew gum, use a Brita filter and load up on Jenny O turkey. Apparently that is what you have to do if you are going to be on the show. It is kind of sad that the show is really 1 hour with an hour of product placement oh well it is nice to see ridiculously fat people shrink down to somewhat normal size. Too bad it can’t just be about losing weight but instead has to be some sort of a game. I think the game causes some people to miss the point. Umm excuse me you are 400lbs perhaps it might not be worth it to eat 20 cupcakes. Really once you cross the 400lbs line I don’t think there is any reason on god’s green earth why you should eat 20 cupcakes.
On a completely unrelated note my A in working on some mad scientist project in the basement. I talked to him about it the other day and apparently he is trying to build a bat detector. I guess the idea is to take pictures of bats in flight. Personally I think it would be easier to just hit them with a tennis racquet and then take their picture. If he really wants them in flight he could throw them up in the air again.
Hopefully he will stop working on this thing soon. Yesterday I caught him trying to cut down the lines of code on the microcontroller , he kept mumbling something about it being too slow the stupid thing runs at 16mhz how can that be too slow. Anyway it was pretty fun to watch him fry a laser the other day though. He hooked it up backwards and all this blue smoke came pouring out and the next thing I knew I was being sent outside. I am a little bit worried about him yes there are a few bats that fly around our house but they are like 15 feet up in the air. How is he ever going to get that to work. I want to see him succeed but really wouldn’t trying to get a picture of the dog be a little bit easier. Perhaps a dog detector “Hey look there’s a dog”. See it is not that hard, I think he would be far more successful at trying to take a picture of Wonder Woman’s invisible jet.
On the plus side the bat detector project seems to be keeping his mind off the huge embarrassing failure I fear he is destined for at the Chicken Chase. Let’s just hope he does not decide to test the bat detector on the 25th I don’t think he can handle that much failure.
