• The Challenge (Game on!)

  After a great weekend of food and fun at Mount Snow, Richard and I have embarked on a quest to redeem ourselves of our glutenous ways.  Why are you two up to this time, one might ask?  Well, after a weekend of nachos, philly cheese steaks, slices of fresh pepperoni, bags of marshmallows, and loads of spicy pasta, our bellies have grown considerably more noticeable.  I believe earth's satellites have analyzed images of New York City and have indicated that there seem to be two tumors growing near the financial district.  So in order to alleviate the damage we have caused on our digestive system, we have decided to take on a challenge to lose 10 pounds.  But what's the fun and motivation in that without a little wager.  Here are the conditions:

  1. First to lose 10 pounds is the pending winner.

  2. Once one of the participants has lost the 10 lbs, the other participant has 24 hours to hit the 10lb mark.  If he does, then the game ends as a tie.  If not, the first participant is declared the official winner

  3. Loser must do winner's laundry once a week for a one month period.  This includes washing, drying, and folding services.  Failure to do so will result in a can of whoopass. 

  4. No supplements or unhealthy methodologies shall be used at anytime.  Diet pills, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, crack, bulimia, anorexia, and starving are deemed to be cheating and will result in forfeit of the challenge. 

  5. Weigh-ins will be performed according to a pre-set schedule during the hours of 10-11pm on established dates. 

  6. Both participants must be present during the weigh-ins.  Weigh-in will not be documented unless this condition is met. 

  7. Sponsors and motivators are allowed and even encouraged. 

  According to the official weigh-in held at 10:35pm last night 3/17 at Gold's Gym on John Street, the weights are as follows: 

  *  Joseph Y. Kim (aka Jumbo): Height 6'1"  Weight 194.3 lbs  <---- Projected Winner (source: CNN)

  *  Richard S. Chun (aka Mr. Sleep): Height 5'7"  Weight 180.2 lbs  

  I would just like to take this opportunity to say some encouraging words to my opponent:  "Separate my whites from colors.  Cold wash for colors, warm wash for whites.  2 sheets of fabric softener with every load."
