My son has been driving me crazy to take him and his friend’s paintballing for the longest time. For the last couple of months I had been dodging the proverbial “paintball” by offering up other exciting activities, like tickets to a NY Knicks game or ATVing.
Unfortunately, I ran out of excuses when he was invited to a Paintball Party by my good friend’s son. What made matters worse is that I was volunteered to chaperone along with a couple of other dads.
When we arrived at the facility, the staff split us up into three teams and each parent was assigned a platoon of kids to lead. For my son’s sake, I didn’t want to show my reluctance so I put on my best ‘Rambo’ face and headed out into the trenches.
Our very first contest comes to a close, along with one of our busiest weeks. We set up the $100 Visa Gift Card contest to coincide with the debut of “Couponology Corner” on the PIX11 Morning News, and getting both done at once was hectic to say the least.

If you haven’t started already, you have to get to working out. I know, I know; it’s rough getting back into the routine. After all, we’ve all been hibernating since early November. That’s five straight months of sleeping in, slothing around, and eating more than our fair share of indulgent foods.
It’s ok, though, with some dedication and determination, we can turn our doughy exteriors and harden them up. Well, with those things and some help from the pros over at AFG Fitness. There you can find all the cardio equipment to help you get into the shape you want for summertime.
Personally, I like cardio more than I like weight lifting. It doesn’t bulk up your muscles, but it cuts your fat and tones everything, not to mention brings up your endurance like crazy. If you couple that with some lifting here and there, you’ll be in prime conditioned in no time.
