P90X-tasy

I DID IT!  I completed all 90 days of P90X.  Okay, maybe that's a bit of a stretch.  I allowed myself to miss one day of each phase, so technically I did P87X.  Either way, I'm pretty proud of the fact that I actually carried through without too much cheating, especially because I also took Step 2 and did my ACE rotation during the past 90 days.  So if I can do it, anybody can!


My non-flexing before and after pictures aren't all that impressive (whoa, just noticed I'm wearing the same underwear today as I did the day I started).  This is mostly because I don't think I ate healthily enough to maximize the benefits of the course.  I mean, how could I possibly resist late night Gus burgers and/or Chistian's pizza?  JUST LET ME EAT WHAT I WANT, OKAY??  At least I lost that pooch that was causing me so much stress.

And now, to reward myself, it's Super Lake House Fun Time!  I'm eating at least eight hot dogs.

Round 8: Potpourri (2pts each)
1. One, two, three, four, five, everybody in the car so come on let's ride... You know how it goes. Name four of the girls that Lou Bega could use a “little bit of” in his 1999 hit “Mambo No. 5.”
2. Are you smarter than a 5th grader? Believe it or not, there are five oceans that cover 71% of the Earth’s surface. For two points, name all five of them.
3. The Beer Olympics are loosely based on the Olympic Games. For two points, what are the colors of the five Olympic rings?
4. What two chemical elements of the periodic table are named after continents? You must spell them correctly.
5. Massachusetts, I’m real happy for you and Imma let you finish, but Virginia is the best commonwealth of all time. What are the other two commonwealths in the United States?
6. Harry has a stag, Ron has a terrier, and Hermione has an otter. For one point, what spell did they cast to make these animals appear? For another point, in which book did Harry first cast this spell?
7. Since 1903, when they were first sold for just five cents, Crayola's box of 8 crayons has included blue, orange, green, yellow, black, red, and these two colors.
8. For one point, in which country will you find such delicacies as Bunny chow, Biltong, and Mageu? For another point, what is bunny chow?
