Long Hard Times to Come October 17th, 2012 @ 10:25 pm PDT

I just finished a 7.01 mi run with a pace of 9'38"/mi with Nike+ Running. http://t.co/QIMJqr5W #nikeplus — David Vincent Gagne (@davidgagne) October 18, 2012 That was my longest run in quite some time. I was wrecked by the time I finished; I was really pushing myself the whole time. Just for the heck of […]

Pop-Up Video Debate October 16th, 2012 @ 10:45 pm PDT

How hard would it be to produce a VH1 Pop-Up Video version of a presidential debate? How awesome would that be? It wouldn’t have to be real-time; I can’t even imagine how that would be possible. But imagine how epic it would be if instead of Saturday Night Live, for example, NBC simply aired tonight’s […]

Somewhere Across Forever October 15th, 2012 @ 7:41 am PDT

I managed to hit my new goal of 3500 Nike Fuel points on Sunday, so I feel pretty good about that. (I did the P90X Shoulders & Arms workout in the middle of the afternoon.) After an early dinner at Lakeside Golf Club, my wife and I watched this week’s Saturday Night Live, part three […]

Counting Down the Hours October 11th, 2012 @ 7:34 am PDT

I just finished a 6.08 mi run with a pace of 10'00"/mi with Nike+ Running. http://t.co/KKOfC7HH #nikeplus — David Vincent Gagne (@davidgagne) October 11, 2012 Clearly I need to write more here to avoid this turning into simply a log of my running. It was chilly and misty at six o’clock this morning when I […]

Never Going Back to New Jersey October 9th, 2012 @ 9:30 am PDT

I just finished a 5.85 mi run with a pace of 9'43"/mi with Nike+ Running. http://t.co/w99yWKCV #nikeplus — David Vincent Gagne (@davidgagne) October 9, 2012 I had a good run this morning. I added a few detours to stretch it a bit. I think on my next trip I’ll add another loop so I hit […]

Death and All of His Friends October 5th, 2012 @ 9:29 am PDT

I just finished a 5.47 mi run with a pace of 10'00"/mi with Nike+ Running. http://t.co/MaWGhsAh #nikeplus — David Vincent Gagne (@davidgagne) October 5, 2012 About a tenth of a mile after the five mile mark, I tripped on a crack in the sidewalk and went flying. I was able to break my fall with […]

Hate September 14th, 2012 @ 1:43 pm PDT

I have a friend who always snaps at anyone who dramatically uses the word “hate”. If someone says, “I hate the layout of this website,” or, “I hate getting stuck at this traffic light,” he will respond, “No. You don’t.” “You don’t hate this layout. You hate cancer. You hate communism.” He’s right, of course. […]

Gator Helvetica T-Shirts September 5th, 2012 @ 6:42 am PDT

I’m sure you’ve seen the Helvetica t-shirts. The classic one displays “John & Paul & Ringo & George”. (The creators of that shirt have a pretty good website detailing its history.) Someone needs to make some of these for classic Gator combinations. Here are my suggestions: I know, I know. I forgot to include Percy […]
