This week was off to a good start. I’m repeating month 3 of AX1 and I’ve been pushing myself. Somewhere in the back of my head has been David Goggins 40% Rule. I think I first heard of him a year or two ago. He has an impressive and inspiring story. He’s also one tough son of a bitch and is crystal clear anyone can be the same. I’m not sure I’m ever going to be that tough, but he made me realize there is a significant gap between what I’m doing and what I can do. He’s got a book and website if you’re interested.
I celebrated my birthday last week and birthdays always get me contemplating where I am, where I’ve been, and where I’m going. There are usually mixed emotions. I’m pretty critical of myself but make it a point to focus on accomplishments as well. Looking at only one side of the ledger is a sure way to have a ridiculously skewed view of yourself.
With Goggins’ words in my head, on leg day I went for it. I hit a personal best for squats, and I did it as part of doing supersets that simply kick my ass. I finished my leg work out walking gingerly and feeling proud.
The next day my mid-50s year old body had a surprise for me. It wasn’t my legs. Sure, I got up and felt yesterday’s workout. Candidly, I was feeling really good about myself for getting it done. I was sore but still got my conditioning workout done. Then it was time to shower before work.
I don’t know what I did but I screwed up my left shoulder in the shower. My best guess is I overextended it while washing my back. So much for Friday’s workout. Yes, I know this has become euphemism central. Have at it in the comments.
F***ing thing keeps reminding me it’s there when I move in certain ways. I’m sure nothing is torn, it’s probably just a strain, but hot damn this thing hurts. I’m just going to assume it’ll be okay by Monday and get back to it.
Enjoy your football and snark today. Have a great week and get to it.

It takes me about 3x as long to lose weight as it does to gain it. Almost got rid of the Thanksgiving stuff, now if I can keep Christmas feasting under control, I’ll be on my way to be in non-embarrassing shape for summer.
Round is the shape of heavenly bodies.
The Thanksgiving/Convention weeks put me ~7 pounds back up. I still think I’ll be able to make my goal by April.
I hope this doesn’t dox Neph.
Fake picture. No brewery/beer related clothing.
You’re keeping at it. Good work Not Adahn.
“ My best guess is I overextended it while washing my back.”
I jacked up my back a few weeks ago twisting to grab the bar of soap. I hate getting older.
Not long ago, I made breakfast for me & Jugsy before church. I twisted to grab a plate, and felt something kinda pop under my shoulder blade.
Had a knot & pain for a week.
It beats the alternative.
Of course I can’t think of a month where I didn’t didn’t twist/roll one of my ankles
“I woke up this morning and rolled a fat joint. My ankle has been killing me all day!”
/be here all week
‘It beats the alternative.’
My standard line.
I’m nearly down to the weight I was try to reach. Still a lb to go, eating venison, less carbs and a little work cleaning the snow out of the yard. Then Christmas comes and gifts of candy/cookies/fruit cake. As a cheap guy I will not let that go to waste. Too cold to exercise in the garage, takes too long to warm it up. Quiet times.
Owww! Sorry to hear about your shoulder. My right shoulder has been wonky since my senior year of high school (I call it “my old mime injury,”) so I have to be careful about upper body work. Not usually much pain, but it makes disturbing noises if I move it certain ways.
Missed my Thursday cycle & sculpt session for a holiday event, but whatcha gonna do? Still trying to get treadmill time in on the days between and not worry too much about the number on the scale.
Just keep at it GT.
“… and not worry too much about the number on the scale.”
Yeah. Just do the work. Every day and every week and every month.
You’ll be pleased with the number on the scale. But, do the work.
With Goggins’ words in my head, on leg day I went for it. I hit a personal best for squats
Excellent.
I am still doing more stuff at the gym. I moved from the elliptical to the stairmaster for my cardiovascular work. I don’t feel up to interval sprints on the Airdyne bikes that I was doing before the leg pain started. I am now up to 20 lb kettlebells for my kettlebell swings. 17.5 lb dumbbells for the dumbbell RDLs that my physical therapist wanted me to try. The physical therapist, when he discharged me from PT, wanted me to start both at 10 lbs and work up slowly. I’ve done what he said to do.
Last weekend the pain acted up. A lot. Over the course of the week, the pain died down. Yesterday after I did my physical therapy work, I iced my leg and I was pain free. I have a little pain today but nothing like last weekend. I have yet to do any physical therapy work. I’ll probably just do some stretches and icing.
I bought new mattresses. I never liked the memory foam mattress I had. It was a knock-off, not the Tempur-pedic. It was always hot and I’d often wake up coated in sweat. After the herniation, whenever I propped myself up in bed to read I’d feel a painful stretch in my right leg which faded over time. Now with the new mattress (a hybrid of inner spring and gel infused memory foam), I never wake up coated in sweat. I prop myself up to read and I’ll feel a brief burst of pain as I get into position and then I’m pain free. The mattress has a bit firmer feel than I’d like, but the mattresses I tried out which had the feel I like did not provide the support I want. I could feel my midsection sink into the mattress too much. If I could get something mixing the two sets of mattresses that would be perfect, but the store had nothing like that in stock.
I noted Saturday that my weight is going up. I need to cut back on certain things to get that to go back down. I’ve undone all the weight loss I in the run up to when I had the MRI showing the herniation.
I think I might be up for a trip to Pennsylvania to visit family over Christmas, assuming also good weather. I think that will be a good test of how much I’ve improved as I haven’t driven more than 40 minutes or so since I found out the source of my leg pain.
My follow-up with the doctor is January 15th. We’ll see if it is just a consultation or if it involves another painful cortisone shot. I am strangely hopeful, which is odd as I’m a cynical fuck.
DEG. Where is the herniation? I thought it was in your neck but this post makes me think I’m wrong.
L5/S1. Bottom of the lower back. Bilateral herniation which impinges on both S1 nerve roots. The herniation is worse on the right side.
My right leg is the one where I have the pain.
I have had virtually no symptoms of a nerve impingement on my left side. I remember a few bits of glute pain when standing on my left side. At the time I didn’t know what was causing the pain in my right leg, and figured the pain in my left glute when I stood was some sort of compensation. Later after I saw the MRI results, I said, “Oh, that explains the pain in my left glute which I don’t feel anymore.”
With the Old Guy Syndrome I wake up several times a night. When I return to bed I sleep on the other side, alternating several times during the night. I actually don’t mind waking up, a little incidental stretching and not quite so stiff in the morning. I usually go back to sleep easily.
I didn’t eat well for a couple of days. On the 12th hole yesterday, I could feel a hamstring starting to cramp. I downed my water but had no salt or anything to eat. I stretched and waiting, and the adrenaline completely got to me: I was afraid to swing, hit two pathetic shots, and picked up two strokes on an easy hole.
I got to feeling better, walked it off, and managed to hit 11 greens, so not a bad day, but I’m not going out without Gatorade and a snack bar again.
Instead of Gatorade, look for Nuun tablets. They’re an electrolyte replacement that you drop into water. Smaller footprint and easier to carry. In an emergency you can eat then straight… I do not recommend eating them straight.
I knew there were things out there.
The weird part was just being malnourished for such a trivial (for me) effort.
Back to tablets, if they need water we’re really looking at the same footprint as Gatorade: I’m carrying it or the water. Of course, knowing me, you know I’m toting plenty of extra stuff in my bag anyway.
I figured a water bottle was part of the standard kit.
ah, gotcha: priced in
we agree
Nuun is excellent stuff.
I’ve got a tube stashed in the saddle bag of both of my bikes, on top of a large supply at home. Watermelon is my favorite standard flavor and the lemon/lime for the caffeinated ones.
I’ve never heard of it. Where do you buy it?
I get mine from . If there is a better source, I’d like to know.
Whelp… somehow I fucked that up and it still works.
I order mine on Amazon. They have some variety packs you can try.
Mrs. Dean uses them. Whole Foods carries them.
I’m up to 205 now. Turns out I wasn’t eating nearly enough protein. Once I fixed it, things started falling into place pretty quickly.
When I hit 210, I’ll throttle back, but it’s going to take a while.
I’ve fairly standardized on NewWife’s protein drinks and snacks. They’re around and available in chocolate.
Oh, and the whole point of this was to injury-proof my back. I’m almost there.
Once I am, I can start doing useful lifts with muscles I’ll actually use in real life.
Well. That was … exciting.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
That’s what I was doing for most of the last two quarters. A glorious nap. I needed a nap and the Broncos delivered!
I’m on RedZone now since my local games always suck. Slept through the 2nd half of eight games anyway.
I’m hoping this is about the Chiefs game.
That or Mr. Mojeaux has lost his mojo.
It was, indeed.
Yay! We won!
The most exciting part of it was the snow.
It’s a lot easier to watch a boring game when your team is making it boring by piledriving the other team into submission.
Right? I am never bored when MY TEAM is winning.
Bring back stop and frisk. And interrogation room sodomy.
Barnard College freshman Tessa Majors was allegedly in Morningside Park to buy marijuana when she was fatally stabbed by a group of teenage robbers, the head of the NYPD sergeants’ union claimed Sunday.
“What I am understanding is that [Majors] was in the park to buy marijuana,” Sergeants Benevolent Association President Ed Mullins told radio host John Catsimatidis on his AM 970 show, The Cats Roundtable.
“Here we have a student murdered by a 13-year-old, we have a common denominator: marijuana,” said Mullins, referring to the 18-year-old Majors and one of her alleged killers, 13-year-old Zyairr Davis, whom neighbors have said smokes weed.
——-
Mullins said Sunday that lax police enforcement, both with respect to marijuana and in general, has the city trending in the wrong direction.
“We don’t enforce marijuana laws anymore. We’re basically hands-off on the enforcement of marijuana,” Mullins said.
“I understand the mayor made statements that this is surprising on how this can happen in New York City,” he said. “I really have to question what world he’s living in to think that this is surprising, when we are watching the city slowly erode, with shootings, stabbings, an increase in homicides and, most importantly, a hands-off policing policy.
“Something needs to change and it needs to change quickly or it’s gonna be very difficult to put the genie back in the bottle.”
These people are better than you. That’s why they deserve unfettered power.
Maybe if she bought marijuana in a store with security cameras instead of in the dark under a bridge, this wouldn’t have happened.
You don’t fear for your life when you walk into a liquor store?
I only fear for my bank account.
*high five* ✋
#meetoo
Or at least have it delivered like everyone else. As a bonus, you’re not hanging around the most dangerous park in the city – in the dark!
“Maybe if she bought marijuana in a store with security cameras instead of in the dark under a bridge, this wouldn’t have happened.”
Maybe if she didn’t buy illegal stuff from criminals in the dark under a bridge this wouldn’t have happened either.
At least that’s my message to my grandkids.
Not everyone is as blessed as to have and use common sense.
I had that conversation with the niece. “Your mom isn’t mad that you have pot. She’s worried what would happen if you get caught with it.”
I expect someday to have the same chat with one of my grandchildren, best guess is #2 Granddaughter.
My lefty friend from NY is a pothead. He told me how happy he was that, now that pot’s legal, it will be inspected and certified safe. I tried to explain to him that he’s been buying pot for 40 years, it’s gotten better and cheaper the whole time, except for once. The one time it was tainted was paraquat, put there by the government. Anyway, the price has gone way too high here because of taxes, so now people are back to the alleyways. It turns out, the legit sellers still grow some illicit dope to cover the whole tax bill. Basically there is no truly legal weed here. Thanks government.
I’m back at the gym these days, though with greatly reduced weight after I hurt my back a month ago.
I’m sitting in my backyard lifting 25 oz Dark Swan in the sunshine, and laundry,
Bella says Arf!
Ruff.
🙂
I’m watching the Browns shit the bed and thinking about walking home at the half. But there’s been a really good nitro coffee Stout, and several other good beers. Wings have already been ordered.
RedZone is completely ignoring that game. I guess because America’s Team™ is playing.
Just made a killer steak soup for lunch that used up most of the rest of the 4lb tri tip from Costco that I cooked last night. I added some spud, but if you wanted to it could be made totally paleo/keto. I’m a big soup fan, especially in winter. Easy to make, just get a good pot throw some butter or olive oil or both in, add mirepoix for a few minutes till onions go translucent, add healthy bit of chopped garlic, and your spices, I used bay leaves, Kirkland No Salt Spice Mix, anchovy paste, tomato paste, salt and pepper. Add some beef stock and when it comes to a boil add the rest of the veg you have in the fridge. I used red bell, mushrooms, jalapeño, potato and frozen corn, everything finely diced. Dice up the beef and add when the veg is almost cooked through. Before serving squeeze half a lemon or a few dashes of wine vinegar and chopped cilantro or parsley.
Too much work, chili cheese dogs,Arf!
And a Tums for dessert.
I am doing a NY strip roast today and thought some green bean casserole would go nicely with it so made cream of mushroom soup yesterday. That was my pre-nap snack and it knocked me out. White and crimini mushrooms, shallots, lots of butter/roux (thyme and ?), chicken stock and cream. I thought it needed more protein so added ground beef. I will add some grated habenero jack from a local dairy to it when I mix in the beans for the casserole.
That sounds tasty. Add a few shitakes to the mix next time.
I passed my Krav Maga Belt test today. It was 5 1/2 hours but I passed. Now I will do no exercising for about a month,
The good doctor gets two cheers.
Superb!

Yesterday was back and leg day. So I deadlifted 8 carboys off the ground and set them at counter height in the brewing room.
My kind of workout,
Salute!
I’ve gained 20 lbs back of the 60 I lost. But it’s mostly muscle, or at least half of it, and I have even more stamina and strength that I did back at my peak weight loss. So I’d like to get back there, but not if it means losing lean muscle. So, I’m at about 190 now, I’d just like to lose 10 of it back and it all be fat and no muscle loss. Hard to do at 59. But I’m happy, I’ve actually gained on the distance I can run at one time and I feel stronger.
Anyway.
IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK!
How long until the Russians hacked our democracy, Britain style? Because it can’t possibly be that the people decided an election by voting how they wanted to.
It is known.
Two questions for you Hyp. First, what are you doing that you are concerned you’ll lose it? Second, why aren’t we hearing what hot Brazilian wife thinks?
But it’s mostly muscle, or at least half of it, and I have even more stamina and strength that I did back at my peak weight loss
That’s good.
Gun nuts
Dozens of U.S. Navy pilots have written a letter demanding Capitol Hill lawmakers and top military brass allow more pilots to carry arms on bases, and allow those standing watch at flight schools across the country to be armed in the wake of the deadly shooting at Naval Air Station Pensacola by a Saudi officer training there.
The letter, obtained exclusively by Fox News, is a form letter the pilots hope their colleagues will use to write lawmakers to get what they say is much-needed attention — preventing further shootings on U.S. military bases, in part by increasing deterrence.
“It is reprehensible that a military installation, much less its warfighters based there, be at the mercy of off-base, civilian law enforcement when faced with an immediate threat to their lives,” the letter says. The letter was sent to Fox News by two U.S. Navy instructor pilots from NAS Pensacola, in Florida, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to speak with the press.
——-
The author of the pilots’ letter blames a 1992 law, which “caused military bases across the United States to become ‘soft targets.’ On-base security is often provided by contracted civilians whose physical fitness requirements and specialized training fall far short of the standard servicemember’s,” according to the letter.
Some pilots say it is inexcusable that a weapons expert like one of the three shooting victims was killed while standing duty unarmed.
“ENS Joshua Kaleb Watson was a small-arms instructor and captain of the rifle team at the United States Naval Academy. Yet when charged with standing the watch, he was equipped with nothing more than a logbook and a pen,” the letter says.
The pilots hope their effort “will discontinue what has become a severe irony burdening our servicemembers: that they can be entrusted to fly multimillion-dollar aircraft over hostile territory, command companies of infantrymen into battle, or captain ships around the world, all while holding the nation’s top security clearances, but when back home are not trusted to carry a simple pistol in order to protect themselves, their families and their fellow servicemembers.”
No guns allowed. That makes it a safe zone.
In the future, all wars will be ended by declaring war free zones.
allow those standing watch at flight schools across the country to be armed
Like the Pearl Harbor shooter?
Btw, in addition to his service pistol, he also used a M4. Funny how there’s now an actual use of a burst fire (or full auto, I have no idea which version the squids use) capable weapon for a shooting and it’s crickets.
https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-navy/2019/12/14/shipyard-co-theres-no-known-motive-for-pearl-harbor-gunman/
JFC. I had no idea whoever stands watch is unarmed. That’s ridiculous.
It’s called watch duty not guard duty.
To my simple civilian mind they are the same thing… or should be.
Like the Pearl Harbor shooter?
It’s almost like it’s impossible to offer a 100% effective guarantee of safety to anyone, anywhere.
Niners are tied with the Falcons at 10 apiece, and Dallas Broncos are thumping the Rams 28-7. And I’m drinking Anderson Valley Bourbon Barrel Stout.

It pays to be married to a massage therapist; got the knots in my back (right between the shoulder blade and spine) worked out today. I’ll be in great shape until I hit work and the tension starts re-accumulating in its usual spot.
Is she Robert Kraft type masseuse or the angry Swedish kind?
Yes.
So she feeds you cheese and yells “HOW DARE YOU!!!” ?
Maybe.
My stress collects in my ass cheeks. Poor massage therapist hesitated when I very hesitantly told her that and then she went there and went, “OMG you were right.”

I went back to doing bench presses, dead lifts, and squats for the first time in a long while. I got that good kind of soreness. The only hiccup was when I bent over to tie my boots, my stomach muscles seized up. Took a few minutes before I could straighten out again.
You know you’re getting old when you bend over and think: is there anything else I can do while I’m down here?
I usually use a Smith machine and the sissy pad (keeps me from tearing out back hair) , but not that time.
I went 3 days without beer this week. I’m trying to put the plug in the jug. Beer is just a disaster for my waistline.
My hat’s off to fit people. It takes a lot of self-discipline to maintain the right habits.
Or: enh, I’ll pick that up later.
Unless you have an injury you need to work around, squat without the Smith machine. You have lots of supporting muscles that aren’t getting used when you use the machine.

How’s Lou Reed’s leprosy doing?
Started strong, but kinda fell off at the end.
He talked to the Browns to have it treated in Oregon.

Imma let someone else take on her name.
“Shelby Gash”. And would.

On second thought, and living at home at 24, maybe not.

Melbourne Childcare Centre Replaces Santa With ‘Sustainability Pirate’ For Christmas Party
Peak Derp is like Planck Temperature – it exists, but it’s so absurdly high that there is always bound to be something even stupider than the stupidest thing there is right now.

Somehow these people never call for the state to consume less.
Sustainability is when the government consumes and everyone else starves
‘Member the banana taped to the wall performance art? Not to be outdone, Dearborn’s Arab American National Museum displays shawarma taped to wall.
I approve and I would definitely eat that.
Ditto. I’d yoink it right off the wall, honestly, I love a good shawarma.
I could go for one right now.
Damn. The Falcons beat the niners with two seconds left and the Dallas Broncos crushed the Rams.
The time of football is done. With the terrible loss today, I can write off the rest of the season. (Although I still hope we beat the Ravens).
Packers are in the playoffs, which is what matters.
Not here in the Land (or the CLE if you prefer). I have no idea what the hell was going on with the defense today, and my only guess is the team really wants Kitchens gone (considering stories that unless the Browns shit the bed the last three games, Kitchen’s job was safe).
That’s now 3 games in a row that’s been decided with 2 seconds or less remaining. 2 of them losses. Jimmy G. needs to find a rhythm if they want to get anywhere in the playoffs. And where did their defense go?

I’m waiting until Crusty posts that one to read it.
At least we still have Lou Reed, even though he has leprosy.

He’s been going through some ch,ch,ch,changes.
Mr. Steyer, your campaign has all the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?

Comments are turned off.
So nobody can compare what he wants to do with Trump’s use of executive power to deal with the immigration emergency.
Call me crazy but I suspect Steyer stands to make a mint from climate change legislation somehow.
Crazy!
He made his billions in coal and then switched over to green energy. Just another climate grifter like Al Gore.
Mr. Bloomberg, your campaign has all the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?

So did MY link give an Error 1011 or did yours?
The owner of this website (totalpackers.com) does not allow hotlinking to that resource (/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/packers-titans-santa.jpg).
I honestly dont even know how they know that.
I will spare you the big long explanation why I thought Ted was poking at me for a screwed up link, but that’s what I thought. LOL
See if this one works. It wasn’t in my cache, so there shouldn’t be any issues.
Poor guy. ?
I didn’t get any error messages. Unless you weren’t intending to post to a photo of a “lonely Broncos fan”.
Obviously, I need to use the same caution with your links that I use with HMs.
I’m not THAT bad!
Well, you are the Wurst.

Florida cop
https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-officer-indicted-exposing-woman-forcing-minor-disrobe
This is what happens when you inculcate a “just follow orders” attitude in people.
And I don’t see the cop’s mug shot.
Thank G_d he got home safely that night.
“Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said in a statement Friday that her office “did not have sufficient evidence to ethically file state sexual assault charges” but commended the FBI “for successfully gathering enough evidence to make these civil-rights charges possible.”
That blue line is thin, Kathy. Christ, what a cunte.
He had thin blue balls?
Sounds like he tried his damndest to drain them. What an utter POS.
That would be the same state law that got a guy slapping a reporter on the butt arrested? I’m sure there are more state laws that the cop violated as well, yet was not charged with because reasons.
Qualified Immunity
thought experiment- what if the runner that slapped Mary Jane Rottencrotch on the behind was a cop?
Still charges ?
I recall some Hawaii vice cops complaining about not being allowed to have sex with whores as part of their undercover work.

It was an asshole move but that seems to be just a bit of an overreaction.
Like arresting kids sexting and putting them on sex offender lists. Speaking of which, if he’s convicted of sexual battery, I assume this guy will be required to register as a sex offender as well.
(And i was mistakenly mixing FL and GA)
Yeah, he could well get more time than the guy who broke Rand Paul’s ribs because he didn’t like Paul’s political views.

I watched the movie Gantz: O against my better judgement. I wasn’t a big fan of the anime and wasn’t sure if the motion capture CGI approach for the movie was going to better. Reason I gave it shot is liked the voice actors for the two lead roles.
Recommendation – PASS!
OT: rewatched that interview with the white separatist/nationalist/whateverist from last night, with the sound on this time. Wasn’t paying attention to the video and without that, sounded like two Japanese guys speaking. Also, his shoe shaming at the start got a laugh. Just because there isn’t a genkan, doesn’t mean you can wear shoes inside.
I’d never heard of him. After straff mentioned he grew up in Japan I looked him up on Wiki. He was born and lived in Japan until age 12. So I’d imagine his speaking proficiency is near native or native.
The Wiki article isn’t very flattering, but I’d like to know a bit more about him. It’s certainly the first time I’ve heard the words 黒人 and 白人 used repeatedly… Not normally something comes up in a conversation in Japanese.
Funny enough I’m off to Skype with my friend in Japan. I’ll check back here or the next thread in an hour or so when we finish our language exchange.
Speaking of 人, time to fix a drink.

What does hito have to do with drinking? 😉
His pronunciation is really good. Not sure of his general vocabulary, but my guess is that he has picked up a ton of vocab useful in explaining his racial theories. It’s possible he’s very weak in other areas of vocab. That he doesn’t use any grammar patterns I’m familiar with probably means that he’s not exactly native level. I’m not, and every conversation I have with a native invariably includes some new pattern I’d never heard or noticed before.

GF opened her new bottle of Thistle Finch black coffee rye.
I tasted it. It’s very interesting. http://www.thistlefinch.com/products
Less spice than their PA rye. Coffee notes are strong. Slight cocoa aftertaste.

Monday morning off. Drinking coffee and eating a doughnut. Can’t imagine it’d any different if I were in the USA. But, ? anyways.
You don’t have any guns. ??
I didn’t have any guns after university either. Suppose I would own one if I live there now, so point taken.

Just lifted weights yesterday for the first time in 5 weeks (been down with a wicked case of bronchitis; the coughing has mostly subsided but my voice still sounds like Don Vito). Felt damn good. Can’t wait to get back to running, but I better wait until the sickness is 100% gone before I go out and breathe that freezing air.
Get well soon!
I raced a 5K once in literally freezing weather while recovering from a cold. I ran just fine… but it was like breathing knife blades. Not recommended.
Anyone watching the game?
Thanks to whoever shared that link.
Kinda slow but GO BILLS!

Go Bills!

I have a bad feeling about this.

I assume you’re referring to the facemask call?
I am, sort of. No Sunday night post?
I watched the Giants this afternoon.
Not a great game.
Bah. It’s great.
Okay, it’s not a great game now. I didn’t know there was a second facemask in the middle of your chest.
Right?

Yes, that’s what they said.
Hey does anyone know about typing? I’m pretty fast but I use the wrong fingers. What is the best way to retrain myself?
If what you’re doing is working, why change it?
So I’m doing it the right way? Also, I would like to get faster. If I learn how to do it the right way I might be able to get much faster.
I’m sure there are plenty of websites for that. I have tried one in the past but I don’t remember it.
OK, there is probably software too.
Try snorting crystal meth.
Back in ‘94, I went on a meth binge and played bass all day. I got really good at it.
I don’t snort meth anymore. But I’m still pretty good on bass.
It’ll probably work for typing, too.
Seems legit.
It’s not the libertarian politics. I come here for the sound medical advice.
It will either make your typing better or take you to a place where you no longer care.
Or…you’ll take the typewriter all apart and never put it back together?
