Three Personal Highlights

It's Friday afternoon, so I hope my readers will indulge me a bit of gloating over three recent moments of personal triumph:

  1. Playing the 12th hole at my regular course, I made a shot from about 80 yards out.  Unfortunately, it was for par.  :-(

  2. This past Saturday I walked the Indianapolis half marathon in a personal record time of 14:57 per mile.

  3. After setting up my new subwoofer, I put in the Return of the King DVD and zoomed ahead to the Minas Tirith battle scenes.  Seconds later, my younger daughter ran upstairs and cried, "Daddy, your movie is shaking the whole house!"

All three of these were moments of great personal satisfaction.  The third one was the only one to result in maniacal laughter.
