500,000 Push-Ups

I plan to do 500,000 push-ups for $0.10 each in order to get out of debt. Moving to Europe and my school loans are still haunting me! My day job already has me pulling hours to get the start-up off the ground so there’s no brain left for IT side-jobs.

For every purchase I will post an uncut video of my pain...and there will be pain. My arms are qualified to type this but nowhere near setup to pop off 150 push-ups (let alone a half-million).

Buy some push-ups: get your video, shout-out and link!

Experiment #2 - Inclined to Eat Too Much

#701-800 - brought to you by the AMOOCON Tech Conference (twitter)

After really going to town on a huge portion of pasta and bolognese sauce, I figured that was the opportune time to try another experiment. It proved successful but my stomach wasn’t thrilled about it.

AMOOCON is a conference I’ve attended the past couple of years and they were cool enough to sponsor this round. It’s coming up on the 4th of June in Rostock, Germany and should prove to be another interesting/festive gathering of the VoIP folk. I have to be honest, top on my looking-forward-to list is probably the wine tasting proposed by Randulo of the VUC!

The max order is now 150 and getting your shout-out and twitter or site linked to is much easier! Thanks for the suggestions.

The Push-Up Showdown

#601-700 - brought to you by Herr Maxim

Another gray Saturday watching podcasts… The most interesting thing I can point out in the background is an aptly titled episode of Diggnation, “The Push-Up Showdown.” The hosts try to do two-finger push-ups after being inspired by this video of a two-finger handstand + flip.

I can’t imagine risking my letters-456rtgbv+left-mouse-button abilities for that stunt but it’d probably worth more than $0.10 per repetition. Maybe I’ll have to come up with my own stunts for purchase. Let me know if you have any ideas.

Fans in the Bedroom

#501-600 + an extra ten for the wait - brought to you by Señora Rosanna (gracias!!)

My most important fan, a fan, in the bedroom. For some reason my apartment was on fire when I got back from work to record this and I was burning after the first few up-downs. You all like looking at my dirty laundry? It’s awesome, I know… Once the weather changes, I’ll have a better backdrop.
