State of the Nation

It appears that the new Team Leaders haven't wasted much time in asserting their authority.
The BBD's seem to have found time to learn the required computer and typing skills in between sleeping, eating and 'playing', very smart......
This current takeover may not be 'temporary' as first thought, however other Team members can assure readers (and fans) that it won't last forever.

The Teams current Periodized training schedule has been restructured considerably by the BBD's. After many hours of research, consultation and sleeping the following guidelines are to be adhered to until further notice:

October: Any anaerobic exercise must be performed on a wheeled device of no more than 90min in duration.

November*: Eating

December*: Drinking

Note that combining Nov. & Dec. activities may lead to team issue clothing not fitting in January.

Willis Laughs at 'Prank'

The theory that grown men are scared of alligators has once again proved as a myth by none other than 'John McLean'...

Bruce Willis' co-star played a prank on him by leaving a live alligator in his trailer.

Bruce stars in new action movie Red alongside Mary-Louise Parker, Dame Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman. Mary-Louise was determined to test Bruce's reputation as a Hollywood tough guy and decided to try to scare him by placing the reptile in his trailer on the New Orleans film set.

Mary-Louise persuaded actor John Malkovich to take Bruce out for lunch, while she put the alligator in a cooler and hid in his shower to wait for his reaction.

However, Mary Louise was disappointed to discover the animal was so small it failed to frighten her rugged co-star.

"It was more like a bloated lizard," Mary-Louise told the New York Daily News.

In fact rather than shock Bruce with her stunt, the 55-year-old action hero was thrilled she had gone to so much effort for him.

Bruce, Laughing
