Clowning Around in Paris

Title story:

So once again I am going to do something very Castanza like, in my eyes. Instead of focusing on law school here in Paris like I am supposed to be doing, I am going to take classes on how to be a clown. Yes a clown. I feel that because it is actual classes it is much to organized of a thing for Kramer and could easily see George quitting his job to do this. Although it won't be circus clown classes (rather French theatrical clowns) it should still be fun and something completely random that I could put on the ol' resume just to get weird questions about it.

Thankfully the Bears have a bye week:

If you haven't read this story yet, I suggest doing so. But I have always wondered why terrorists have not attacked a football stadium, especially one like Michigan. How many other times can you find over 100,00 plus people compacted into a small area. Isn't that an easy target? Symbolic? High number of fatalities? I mean I am not wanting someone to do this, but I guess I am surprised they have not taken a page out of Tom Clancy's Sum of All Fears.

Maladies in France:

Anyone that knows me, knows that I am constantly sick. So I decided to list all of the things I have had go wrong since being here in France (have been here not quite 2 months):
Cold
Sinus Infection
Kidney Stone (2nd one in 3 months)
and my favorite Arthritis in my foot...this is the same foot that had surgery on it 6 years ago and is now developping arhtritis from the surgery according to my podiatrist. Yes I have a podiatrist, in fact I think I could staff an entire hospital with all of the medical personal I visit.

And yes I am still under 25 years of age.

Weight Loss:

Current weight loss is at 11 kilos or 24.2lbs. I still say the best diet for a guy (only guys) is to come to France. It has nothing to do with the full squid (not cut up into indistinguishable pieces), purple rice, seaweed soup, weird mushrooms, or steamed prunes that I am forced to eat; I just always lose weight in France.
When I came here I had 3 goals about my weight. One was easily attainable, one that I expect to do but will be more difficult, and one that will take some work but would be awesome if I can do it. Here they are:

1. Reach 100 kilos. When I got here I weighed myself at 214.5 kilos, I am now at 103 kilos...almost there. Hopefully will be there at the end of October.
2. Be under 200lbs, this is roughly 93-95 kilos (I am too lazy to do the math right now) I think I can reach it but it will be close.
3. Be at 185lbs. This is going to be really tough and if I really press myself I think I can do it, but then again I am lazy. We will see how the first half of November goes.

For those that were curious 114.5 kilos is equal to 151.9lbs and I am now at 226lbs in a month and 20 days.
