My brother Paul Madsen sets new weightlifting record!!!

My brother Paul Madsen is getting ready for his junior year Colorado State for his football team.  It seems like just a few years ago Paul was my “little” brother…..now I’m afraid of him breaking me in two!!  Paul even set a new school record for the power clean this summer in the weight room with a power clean of like 380 pounds.  From what I’ve heard, most NFL teams don’t have their players max out with power cleans because it’s “too dangerous.”  (With all due respect to the NFL, I like that college football programs still let their athletes push themselves to the highest level under close supervision in cases like this).  CSU is gong to be great this season so watch for them!!!

On another random note, I was sitting here tonight going through my Gmail account and I saw that there was a little phone icon sitting in my Gmail account. I clicked on it and I saw that Google is now allowing free phone calls to the US and Canada for the rest of the year! I guess all you need is a computer with a speaker but it is SO COOL!!!! Here is the link:

I think I’m going to make most of my calls from the Internet now and not deal with the spotty AT&T reception on my iPhone.    Today I had one phone call that got dropped like 3 times!!  It was crazy!!
