Teppy, from my yoga teacher friend:
Oh, lisah, thanks! I didn't expect a yogi-produced response so quickly! I'll try using a yoga strap when I do that stretch, and try holding the stretch longer.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have the world's most jacked-up-but-still-flexible-and-working shoulders. One of the krav instructor perqs is tailoring your warmup so it includes your PT exercises. Not sure if the sudden increase in shoulder shrugs and rolls was noted by the students.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Googling jar jar amphibian produces 267,000 matches. jar jar reptile produces 347,000.
Google and the internets have spoken!
Although it'd be fun to start an internet campaign of "Jar Jar is an amphibian, dammit!" to try raise the amphibian numbers above the reptile numbers. Fun, that is, if I had nothing whatever to do with my time....

Well, we are Constant Communicators and she's got all the info in her head! She's really a great teacher.

I think it was using the yoga strap for a while that really helped me out. My problem was that I could get my arms over but hands would fly apart. But now I can hold the stretch pretty well and my hands are getting nearer and nearer to the ground.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I was mostly amused by the Dragon*Con costumes. A lot of them did seem to be excuses to wear as little as possible without getting arrested ... with mixed results (the guys wearing "300" imitations really shouldn't have - really). There was a costume at the end of that series of photos that was all blue-green and peacock feathers that I thought was very attractive.

Teppy, that one exercise you linked to (facing into a corner) is one my PT recommended for when I'd been hunched over a keyboard for too long. It's really good for those days when my back is hurting right between the shoulder blades.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Note to self: go back to these stretchy posts when not consumed by stupid work.

Oh, but their helmets were KFC buckets, and their shields were pizza boxes! That was hilarious!

There was a guy dressed in brown cardboard boxes, kind of shredded at the bottom, and carrying a gun. Written on one of the boxes was "Chew-box-a."
