Every Wednesday, Uncle Farkus tries to help you through your “hump day”. It is necessary to barely survive this day fore as we all know, if one survives Wednesday, one will surely survive the week. In this weekly post, Uncle Farkus will post random stories, pictures, videos, etc from the internet to give you the energy you need. It’s just a public service.

TERRORISM ADVICE

If your lungs and stomach start talking, stand with your arms akimbo until they stop.

If you are sprayed with an unknown substance, stand and think about it instead of seeing a doctor.

If you have set yourself on fire, do not run.

ENJOY YOUR HUMP DAY!

“We are geeks, no doubt about it. But, geeks are cool now. This is our time.”

Sometimes laughter is a great response to a post. What was your response?

Hahah dit is natuurlijk niet goed voor een Star Wars geek zoals ik…we zijn niet allemaal zo hoor…maar goddamn wat een geweldige clip…props!

Jeremy Flynn, ex profesor de esgrima, abrió el Jedi Gym en la localidad californiana de Torrance para permitir a la gente convertirse en personajes de las películas de Star Wars y en cierta manera mejorar sus vidas, si es que tienen alguna chance de lo más remota de ir para arriba haciéndote llamar Lando Calrissian o usndo un casco de stormtrooper. “Star Wars se trata del viaje del héroe, tal como es el ejercicio”, cuenta Flynn. ”Sales de casa, enfrentas tus demonios, y con suerte regresas más fuerte”.  Vean cómo funciona esta fábrica de mejores personas que usa la Fuerza como combustible. Vean el video completito.

Former swordplay trainer to the stars and Star Wars fanatic Jeremy Flynn recently opened “Jedi Gym”, a fitness center in Torrance, CA where members channel characters from the Star Wars film series to work out, meditate, and improve their lives.
“Star Wars is all about the Hero’s Journey, and so is working out,” says Flynn, ” you leave home, battle your demons, and hopefully return home stronger.”

Flynn is frustrated with his students’ lack of commitment and focus, but when a 7-foot man in an incredibly authentic Darth Vader suit arrives at the gym, Flynn thinks he’s found his dream student.

Instead, Flynn and his students learn, first hand, about how powerful the Dark Side can be…

Currently I’m a member of a local gym, but this exercise program looks like a perfect fit for me, LOL.

This video is somewhat humorous, then a small twist in the story happens around the 4 minute mark which makes it really great. The guy who plays the Lando Calrissian character is worth the time waste as well.

Ok. My first post. I gotta start with this. You know who made my childhood totally awesome then ruined it? George ‘the turd’ Lucas. Yeah ‘the turd’. That’s what I said. I like that word. There are probably a million or so articles debating Lucas’s Episodes 1-3 so I’m not going to go on how he fucked the whole thing up….ah I take that back. This man has wronged me. I need to vent.

The Short ‘Jedi Gym’. Hilarity.

Such a brilliant puppet. No bouncing lightsaber nonsense here. Praise Irvin Kershner and Leigh Brackett.

Ganze sechs Minuten lang geht unser heutiger “Shorty am Mittwoch” und kann mit über 350.000 Views inzwischen als Classic im Netz bezeichnet werden. Die Story: Schwertkampf-Trainer Jeremy Flynn hat vor kurzem ein “Jedi Gym” eröffnet und bietet dort Star Wars Work Outs an. Eines Tages kommt es zum Besuch von Darth Vader… Was langsam anläuft, mutiert nach einigen Minuten zu einem der schönsten Slasher Clips im Netz!

Hopefully, next week I won’t be so lazy (not that that would effect these blogs, it’s more of a personal goal)

Grace and Peace.

If you’re a YouTube surfing bum like me, then you’ve probably seen this short movie.

I know it’s just a short silly movie. But there’s a great quote that comes from it.

“It only makes me stronger. And giving up is not an option. I have to move on. Move on to something bigger. Something better. We’re starting from scratch, but that’s life. You know, you don’t give up. What if Michael Jordan gave up when he didn’t make his high school sophomore team. What if Abraham Lincoln gave up when he lost his first election. Actually, if Abe Lincoln gave up, then Michael Jordan would never have had the chance to give up anything.

So no, I won’t give up. Not ever. Not ever.“

Way to go..!!

This Guy introduced me to this guy who had the video below on his blog.  I’m inspired to start working out immediately.

Nothing like following your passion in life.

What are you that passionate about?
