Hey there folks...
Sorry for the lack of posts lately, and thanks for humoring us with all of our past musings. The truth is, ever since that last olympic-distance triathlon in Folsom a couple weeks back, Marvin's training has ramped up considerably. It's not a Phelpsian regimen by any stretch...but it's definitely enough to tire out even the most fit person!
This is a "rest/recovery" week in the program, so we're hoping to do some more blogging very soon(including some post-race coverage of Folsom). In the meantime, we hope your week is off to a great start!
Here's a random morsel of news to share. Maybe you can share it with someone who is contemplating a marriage proposal, or is in need of an ultimate apology gift.
Enjoy!

LONDON - Miners in the southern African kingdom of Lesotho have found one of the world's largest diamonds, a near-flawless white gem weighing nearly 500 carats, mining group Gem Diamonds said on Sunday.
The diamond was discovered in the Letseng Mine on September 8, the company said in a statement. It has been analyzed by experts in Antwerp and found to weigh 478 carats, with very few inclusions and of outstanding color and clarity.
"It has the potential to yield one of the largest flawless D color round polished diamonds in history," the company said. Video of this amazing discovery below.
