Just completed #OneChipChallenge@paquichips the heat was hot, after effects was much worse. Made it 1 hr & 45 mins without drinking. Phase 4 & 5 got me!
Iโm often asked about the pegboard scene in VISION QUEST. That was all me. No stunt doubles or safety measures. I trained for a long time and had to climb it several times to get all the angles. The โtrickโ is not to over extend, so youโd be pulling up your entire body weight. You have to keep it compact. Arms and elbows tight. ๐ช๐ฝ

Every day at 7PM, taps is played over the loudspeakers at Dallas National Cemetery, just beyond the outfield wall at DBU
During every gameday at 7, they pause to honor the fallen troops buried just beyond the wall
One of the best traditions in sports
I always laugh at yo-yoโs who donโt have the 1st clue what information the President had that forced this decision. Even politicians who despise him but were briefed on the situation seem to agree with this operation. I guess lotta podcasters know better. ๐. Gotta keep the lights on somehow. Borderline traitors if you ask me. Iran is a terror nation with a long history of some of the worst human rights atrocities in the world. Nobody disputes that fact.They hate Americans. They hate Israel. They hate all Jews. They hate the West. They would kill us all if given the chance. They just murdered tens of thousands of their own people. The rest of the Middle East is on our side. The Iranian people are on our side. It isnโt that complicated to support our Troops and our country this morning. We are on the right side here. God Bless America . ๐บ๐ธ
โWhen we were first invited to Milan for the Olympics, we said no. It felt like more than we could handle. But we kept thinking about what John and Matty would say if they knew we turned it down. We knew the answer.โจโจJohn loved representing his country. From the time he was little, he dreamed of competing at the Olympics. In that final summer, he was working harder than ever, pushing himself with everything he had to earn a spot on that roster. He was going to be there.โจโจSitting with that knowledge while watching these Games was not easy โ but being present for them, surrounded by people who truly cared about John and Matty, made it something we will always treasure.โจโจEvery person we encountered took the time to ask about the boys โ who they were, what they meant to us, the kind of people they were away from the ice.โจโจWhat struck us most was realizing that John and Matty's impact reaches so much further than we sometimes see in our own grief.โจโจThey are carried by so many people โ in locker rooms, in conversations, in quiet moments we will never even know about. That means everything to us.โจโจAnd then Team USA won gold. When Zach, Auston, and Matthew carried John's jersey around that ice, we were overwhelmed โ they made sure he was there. And then to see Noa and Johnny โ on Johnny's second birthday โ carried out onto the ice to be part of that gold medal photo โ there are no words for what that felt like.โจโจJohn and Matty should have been there, and in that moment, they were.โจโจThank you to every member of that team for loving John & Matty - and for making sure they were part of something historic. And thank you to everyone at @NBCOlympics and @usahockey for your kindness, your generosity, and for bringing our family to Milan to witness it.โจโจYou gave us a gift we didn't know we needed.
With love and gratitude,
The Gaudreau Family"
