No tornadoes here, although we did have a little snow Saturday morning, and sleet at noon on Saturday. The surrounding mountains were mostly snow covered until the sun got doing its job in the afternoon.

Bit of a tornado, here. Met an Argentine gal, part of a group negotiating with Austral. 50 or so, black hair, blue eyes, trim, loves horses and has the body to match. She may be a skoosh older lady, but she's really loud. Think something could happen here. She's from San Carlos de Bariloche and knows where I live in Chile.

Pray for me. I may be in the best place I could ever be - in over my head. Her name's Estelle and she's an Alfieri-Delapenna. Woof !! John

Cook for her John. Then she's yours!

Back from Rochester, my Cho Dan test and the tournament. A long hot shower, a beer and a change of clothes have me sinking into a weary, yet happy delirium.

I will be formally presented with my first Dan (first degree black belt or "Cho Dan" in Korean) in Tang Soo Do early next month. For now, it's 'unofficial', but I passed.

Tournament today-I placed first in open hand forms, first in sparring, second in weapons.

You know, guys, getting a trophy for kicking some other guy in the ribs and head isn't half bad.

Good job dude!

I'm heading up to Vancouver this weekend to cheer on a friend who's fighting in the Kyokushin tournament.

Mrs. Chickenboy and I have been experimenting with 'atypical' cuts of meat lately. A couple weeks ago it was beef tongue. Totally underrated. A tender, lean, tasty cut of meat.

This weekend it was beef 'cheeks'. Browned in a pan with olive oil, herbs and sea salt and then slow cooked in a crock pot with stock, stewed tomatoes, potatoes and carrots for 4 hours. Beef cheek stew = melt in your mouth goodness.

Tongue is very much valued in Russian cuisine. I think I ruined it for myself as a kid because I just had to see what it looked like raw, and it killed it for me.

The mushroom soup is one of her LESSER recipes! Why do you think I have not been able to lose weight!

To turn the screws a little bit, since he lives in LA I got to see the master in action. He's working on a new program and the show was a "dress rehearsal" type of thing. Really fascinating to watch him try different jokes and even ask the audience what worked.

She's good. Has a new gig with a high end CPA firm here in the Valley. Makes as much as me now, which is nice.

Hola. Hmm, well, not much to tell, really. I got a new gig too, same company, different department. But the old job isnt letting me go for 3 months. As you might imagine, I'm just sitting here marking time.

Did you move yet?

Welp, got the result of my MRI. I have a herniated disc that's pressing on two major lumbar nerves, which explains the mindboggling levels of pain. Physio tomorrow, doctor on Friday and then I'll hopefully have some sort of plan to get out of this.

Fingers crossed that therapy can relieve it without surgery!

Not yet. Working on getting stuff packed and putting the house in 'showing' condition. Painters will be here later this week and things will really go to hell in a handbasket then. Hope is for getting the place on the market early June. We won't move until after we've sold this place.

Here in Middle Tennessee we had enough rain to keep the energy level down so that once the storms moved into our area all we got was T-Storms and lots of rain.

The folks south and west of us, not so much. Be thinking of the folks in Central Mississippi, NW Alabama, and Lincoln County, TN. Double digit lives were lost and lots of damage done.
