Then you get that baggy-bunchy look, and it's not very attractive.

Yes, pants should hang naturally about the ankles.

Did you save the receipt? You might be able to return them for a smaller size. Isn't it wonderful to say "I need a smaller size"?!

I've lost 10 lbs since the beginning of March and am in way better shape.

5 more and I'll be very happy. 10 more and I'll be ecstatic (and hopefully finally lose the love handles). Although it might be tricky to keep the weight off once I start training in earnest for my 100 mile bike ride in September. "6-8 hours of constant biking including hill climbing" and "reduced calorie intake" doesn't sound like a clever combination, so the "eat less" half of my patent-pending "Eat Less, Move More" weight loss program will have to be modified. But of course it will come with in increase in the "move more" half, so who knows. And if I do put a few pounds back on I'm totally okay with that being the reason.

With you, less is always better. Keep up the great work!

I'm going to the Kings game tonight! :D

Look for me in the 6th row, center ice- just to the side/back of the penalty box with a clear view to the ice.

Today I rode what I believe is the best new theme park ride in decades, Transformers: The Ride 3D at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Craps all over Spiderman (which was my previous favorite dark ride anywhere).

Detail all around, excellent pacing, and 3D blended with physical sets absolutely brilliantly.

Oh, I wish I could have ridden with the group of Imagineers I saw entering as I was heading away from the building.

It's in 'technical rehearsals' from now until official opening on May 25.

Head there early on a weekday for best shot - just keep in mind that it's subject to close at any time.
