I woke up this morning and stepped on the scale to finally see 2 more pounds gone. If you read my entry from the other day, you know that I was a little frustrated, so today is a happy day. I really want you to see this today and know that you have to just […]Read Post ›
Good morning, Whippers! I just came in from a bit of practice after some step aerobics. I am trying to come up with a smooth routine that I may possibly be able to share with my readers, demonstrating what I mean by “meditative” cracking. I’m having a hard time figuring out how to smoothly transition […]Read Post ›
Ohhh, riled up are you? Good. Now listen up. Health at every size is a lie. This entire movement with overweight people screaming oppression is made up of people scared to fail. You are scared.

I’m not sure if you are an avid follower of the awesome Paracord Planet or not, but when shopping for ideas the other day, I noticed a new product in the 550 paracord section for metallic cord. WOOO!

Hello whippers! I just wanted to alert my readers to a couple of things on the site. First, I am finally able to post some art whips. There is one in there now and more will be coming as I am able to finish them. Also, a new section under Practical Whips: Off-The-Shelf Practical Whips […]Read Post ›
If you read my blogs at all, I am sure you know about Willow. A sentimental kind of whip, in which I had used a finished piece of diamond willow, made by my dad, as a handle. It was the last piece he had made before he died, and I made a whip from it. […]Read Post ›
