It's the Final Countdown.

There are less than 24 hours to go in the National Challenge Competition. Are we going to get a step on the podium or what?

I was in the gym last week and I found a home-burned CD that had fallen under the weight racks titled "Powur lifing Mix". Oh, this should be hilarious! I took it home and popped it in the player but I already knew what to expect. There was plenty of stuff from groups we haven't heard from in a loooong time like Winger, White Lion, Quiet Riot, but of course it ended with the grand-daddy of all power-posing anthems; "Final Countdown" by Europe. What is it with bodybuilders and this song anyway?

So do we need a final motivational song to push this contest over the edge? Will one more blast help you push an extra mile? Let's turn back the clock to the 1980's. Put on your acid wash bike jersey, tease up that hair, and crank those little computer speakers to "11".




(Someplace out there is a bodybuilder sad about his lost Winger tunes.)

Yikes! Why is it that at the time you feel so cool wearing the hip stuff (big hair, shoulder pads, leather, etc.), but when you look back on it years later, you ask yourself "What WAS I thinking?"
