RIP, Valleywag

(Originally posted May 1, 2009)

Valleywag, Silicon Valley's gossip site (and sort of pretend tech and startups related site) was always a fun read. After the staff was trimmed, it became a little less so. Ok, maybe a lot less so.

But today sounds the death bell. Owen Thomas is leaving Gawker Media (Valleywag's parent), and moving to NBC. There's no one left.

Rest in peace, Valleywag.

Tuesday's Workout

Tuesday's workout was more about maintaining discipline and not missing a workout - my knee was still hurting after basketball, and I was tired.

Each part, 2 exercises of 4 sets each, for a total of 8 sets per part.

Played basketball today - lots of enthusiasm, but little skill.

Playing on a cement court is hard on my knees. Its going to make cardio difficult the rest of this week.
