I have been taken hostage by the social media shitstorm and given in to Twitter. My twitter name is aejonesleggo, because some putz took aejones before me. I am not angry at that person, their first name probably starts with "A," their middle name probably starts with "E," and their last name is probably "Jones." They have a right to it as much as I do. Now if Randall Stevens took the name, well, I might be a little weirded out. Here's a link to my twitter I think: http://twitter.com/#!/aejonesleggo

The primary reason I have started to twitter is the first annual "Who is the better human being?" competition (sponsored by Dani Stern). The first two contestants in this competition are Aaron Jones (me) and a very famous canadian (lowercase, for extra disrespect) poker player name Mike "Timex" McDonald. This competition will prove that I am a slightly better human being in all aspects of life.

Thusfar the competition has gone as follows:

Arm Wrestling: Timex (I think I got hustled here, he suggested it and seemed to out strategize me, I haven't arm wrestled in the 21st century)
Pull-ups: aejones (15)
Chin-ups: aejones (15; I almost got 16, and his 15th was a fake one, so he can count this a tie but I will lol-break his soul if we do this again in 2 days)
Push-ups: aejones (71, I could have done 10 more probably but I'd already beat him by 5 or something so decided to make my chest hurt like 6% less tomorrow)
IQ Test: Timex (150 to 141 based on some 20 minute IQ test online, I am not going to give them my CC number so I can't figure out details, but there's a chance I lost based on him finishing a few minutes sooner than me, I'm not sure)

So I lead 3-2 going into day 2 of what will probably be ~40 day event.

We have each forfeited the following: I am not doing any weight lifting with my legs because I haven't done anything for 8 weeks on my ankle, not that I was any good at deadlifts or squats before that. I'm also throwing in the towel for cardio or distance running for the same reason. I think he plays some kind of racquet ball and even though I don't play I might be better than him in a few weeks if I started to. He mentioned Chess but I don't play.

I believe he has forfeited pool although we may still do it, and he's forfeited ping pong based on the words of people in the house but we may still play my left hand vs his strong hand. He doesn't want anything to do with basketball of course and also said he sucks at swimming. I suggested backgammon but he doesn't play.

I'm also not going to play anything that involves luck.

I think next on the slate is HU monopoly or Trivial Pursuit. It seems like we'll be able to find random competitions throughout the summer, but if anyone has anything feel free to suggest it. He outweighs me by ~15 pounds, fwiw. I don't think it'd be a good idea to box or wrestle because of the weight difference and my fragility, but I would definitely be up for fencing or just good old fashion sword fighting.

The Leggo Party will be at the end of June this year on the 30th. It'll be at the same place as last year, with full details being posted ASAP. I know a lot of training sites were canceling their parties, but this is what everyone at Leggo does best, so how can I possibly do that? Don't blame me if I buy a few less drinks than last year though!
