One of the books that I have read concerning the Appalachian Trail has really hit home for me. This book is “Appalachian trials: The Psychological and Emotional Guide to Successfully Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail” by Zach Davis. As its title suggests, this book deals more with the TRIALS of the trail versus being a play-by-play […]
OK, so Steve has gotten REAL serious about getting in shape and losing weight, hiring personal trainers to yell at him and all……… I walked 4 miles yesterday and had planned on resting until like…..October……….so that my body could recuperate from the trauma of yesterday’s walk. Then, Steve takes the gloves off, so I have […]
Only 1091 more days until we hit the trail, and Steve has cranked up the training competition a notch or two…. Steve knows that most of the calories I burn in a typical day are burned while sitting here typing at the computer on one of the 3,951 blogs in my Idiot Empire. Steve also […]

So, where did this crazy idea come from? Since you asked……. This past Christmas, I got a Kindle Fire for myself with Christmas money that I had accumulated from various relatives. My wife will tell you that I am VERY anti-modern technology and that she never thought she would see the day when I would […]
Second day of a new blog and I think it has more readers than my other four combined. There are advantageous of being a friend of The Idiot (mere coincidence that I am one too)! Or maybe we have triggered a few folk’s sense of the ridiculous. Either way, the response we have already received is quite […]
I’m not crazy. Honest. (My Mom had me tested) Yes, I am disabled. It’s true that ever since March 2, 1999 I have dealt with a number of neurological issues related to the Medical Malpractice error that my quack Spinal Surgeon blessed me with during my supposedly “routine” back surgery. Yes, the circulation in my […]
March 20th, 2014 Two broken down, middle-aged Idiots are going to stand atop a mountain in Northern Georgia, will laugh, joke, and will then “high five” each other, before turning and starting to walk north…..
