    Yeah I do at least 1 mile a day at about 4-5 mph, sometimes I do about 8-9 mph but I cant keep that pace up for too long lol. I also lift weights and stuff, but I get about 2 and a half hours everyday to workout, do homework, and any other leisure activities these days, so my only constraint is time I guess.

    It sounds like you get a decent workout in so it could just be that you have more of a big build due to genetics.

    Although some people think its weird, there are really big guys out there that are actually fitter then the real skinny ones that look in shape but really are not.

    If your lifting weights and running every day I'm sure your body is in great shape, even if it doesn't really look like it. Just a tip on the working out; daily running, from what I know is ok, but if your doing any sort of major weight lifting be sure and do it every other day instead of every day. If I remember correctly, it gives your muscles time to "recharge" and reduces the chance of you straining, pulling or otherwise injuring them.

    Peace

    Yeah I alternate between arms, chest and legs. I'm not really that fat but I have moob type things. They aren't really moobs because it's just fat and not a genetic disorder.

    EDIT: I think I'm kinda fat, but people tell me at worst I'm kinda chubby, but I always think they are just trying to be polite lol.

    Ah, your fine then work out wise. Sure, you have "moobs", most guys do. Again, as long as your working out you'll be fine. When I said "Its probably genetic" I didn't mean a disorder I simply ment that your father, grandfather, etc. probably had (or has) "moobs" too.

    From what I can tell its a perfectly normal guy thing to eventually develop "moobs" at some point in life. :p

    It also seems like a perfectly normal human thing to say "I'm fat!" as girls always say it and I have been finding out in the past few years that it seems like guys almost say it as much as girls.

    Peace

    abuzar1,you can workout all you want but the main thing is changing you're eating habits. no pop , limit the sweets lots of fruit and vegetables and cut the calories to a min. it takes a complete life style change when you get to you're mid to late 40s to stay healthy

    abcd is right, although I was lucky, it wasnt until after 50 when things changed maybe because I was always active and being a construction worker, before 50 I could eat everything in site, after 50 I found that I could gain weight by just looking at food.

    As for the fat thing, I guess I'm a bit on the chubby side - being a lazy student doesn't really coincide with healthy living, not under the influences I've got anyway!
    Exercise plenty, but the diet leaves a lot to be desired! :)

    On the zune thing, I got a Toshiba Gigabeat F20 a couple of years ago, and have no desire to change it. The software's just about useable (and is the worst of any Mp3 player you can buy) but the player itself is pretty good, I guess that shows what happens when Microsoft get involved with the production of hardware. As the ancestor of the zune, how does the software differ to mine?

    Well I have to say the Zune software is very nice, and very FAST. It also syncs much faster than an iPod.

    The thing is I'm 16 not 40! I did stop drinking pop though.

    It looks like fake bidders have a thing for Fords. I found another one, which in the auction the lister stated "I have relisted this truck 6 times because of fraudulent bidders".

    The guy says in the auction that the first one to call him (he provides his number) and offer him $36k gets the truck.

    The current high "bid" is $10 million. >.<

    Sugar and starch will raise your insulin levels thus putting your body into fat storing mode. I agree with Pop_smith though because I know a lot of very active and healthy guy's that are chubby. Don't they say that sumo wrestlers are in good shape. As long as you exercise the way you do don't worry.

    The only light truck near being worth $36,000 is the Lincoln Mark LT and it's a limo with a truck bed, MSRP $38,000. A person would have to be filthy rich or crazy to own one of those. Could you see hauling bails of fence wire in the back of one of those or moving your buddies junk.

    Its Getting close to the end here for me,vision is at 40%..
    no vision at all in the left eye.

    P/S TO CREAKY,Thanks for answering my pm,in a timely fashion...
    cheers

    Liberal history 101

    For those that don't know about history...Here is a condensed version...

    Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
    hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and
    would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.
    The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer
    and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the
    beer. These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the
    catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:

    1. Liberals, and
    2. Conservatives.

    Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of
    agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, sowhile

    our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented,

    they just stayed close to the brewery.That's how villages were formed.

    Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to B-B-Q at night
    while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as
    the Conservative movement.

    Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off
    the conservatives by showing up for the nightly B-B-Q's and doing the
    sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal
    movement.

    Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became
    known as girlie-men. Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the
    domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept

    of Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that conservatives provided.

    Over the years conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most powerful land

    animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.

    Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white
    wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish but like their beef well
    done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare. Another
    interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher
    testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers, personal injury
    attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are
    liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn't
    fair to make the pitcher also bat.

    Conservatives drink domestic beer, mostly Bud. They eat red meat and still
    provide for their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys,
    lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police
    officers, corporate executives, athletes, Marines, and generally anyone who
    works productively. Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for a living.

    Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and
    decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more
    enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals remained in
    Europe when conservatives were coming to America . They crept in after the
    Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing.

    Here ends today's lesson in world history:
    It should be noted that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily
    respond to the above before forwarding it.

    A Conservative will simply laugh and be so convinced of the absolute truth of
    this history that it will be forwarded immediately to other true believers
    and to more liberals just to piss them off.


    And there you have it. Let your next action reveal your true self.

    Sorry to hear about your vision problem. My Mom is dealing with that same issue now.

    A TWOFOLD BITCH:
    #1 I haven't even had a moment to stop by and bitch!!
    #2 A large number of businesses and factories have closed and moved to Mexico and China all at the same time. Roughly six or seven thousand people are being laid off all at the same time. The government has intervened because the majority are, essentially, unskilled workers so it's likely that thousands will be added to Philly's already huge welfare roles. A huge number of them who've been in Philly for over twenty years don't even speak English (my family and I struggled hard to learn English when I was a kid so this is something that irritates the hell out of me, but I digress) ...we're going to have to hire a large number of interpreters on the taxpayer dime just to speak with them. We have to deal with them right from square one ... learning English, then training them to be able to do something or else it will cost us big time in the long run. (When I was a kid, my parents had to be actively involved in learning English to get citizenship .. they should never have changed that little requirement).

    @ IRELAND I'm so very sorry to hear about your vision and you're in my prayers. I've had but a small taste of what you must be going through. After they put in the implant in my eyes, I started losing vision really quickly; completely blind in the left and the right going rapidly. Fortunately for me, it was just a bad doctor and it was just scar tissue they could remove with a laser then my vision was awsome; I was scared to death so I can only imagine what you must be going through. Once again, you're in my prayers, my friend!

    @ ireland

    Sorry to hear about you eyes. Maybe they can still do something?

    @gerry(is that right?)
    I didn't know you didn't have to know english anymore to get citizen ship. You know what I hate is immigrants coming here and then complaining about how much America sucks. This is coming from a immigrant so I'm not trying to discriminate against them.
