Yikes! Please do not do so again.

Regardless, what does the fact that our highest point (actually 1,550 feet)
above sea level have anything to do with this conversation. We will be
high and dry when your wacko State drops into the ocean from earthquakes.
We also have direct access to the world's largest fresh water supply.

Don't come asking us for our water when your fresh water supply dries up.
;-)


Jim, stop pretending!

Joe...no offense intended...but get to the gym, man.

Assuming that's you, of course.


It's me, and I agree halfway. It's about 20% shirt and bad
picture
angle.
But still, I saw that picture and said PHUQUE! This isn't
good.
Got
back
to
hiking 3 miles a day on some outrageous hills, carrying 50 lbs
in
a
backpack
and 20 lbs in each hand for resistance. I've been in size 34
jeans
since
1970, went to 35 two years ago. I will NOT continue in that
direction.
Not.

I don't know how tall you are, but you should strive for no
higher
than
18 percent body fat. You'll live longer, and keep diabetes
away.
A
good thing.

15-16% would be better. I pack 13 and, at age 54, it's tough
getting
lower unless you spend some time every day lifting followed by
cardio.

Golf - walking.

A game for pansies. Sounds right, johnny.

You've walked 7000 yards with a golf bag on your bag full of clubs
and
balls, right?

Try it, and then come and call names.


Is that why you play it? For the weight lifting exercise?


My initial reason for even considering it was the idea of getting
the
exercise. It's much more appealing than a treadmill.

No, I don't carry my bag, so I'm not into it for the weight lifting
exercise. I'm 6' 3.5" and weigh, as of yesterday, 196 lbs. So I'm
not
in
the shape you are.


So, your question about the 7000 yards with a bag full of clubs was
meaningless, since you don't carry it.


No, you were the one talking about walking with the weight on your
back.
I
was suggesting an alternative. I don't *need* to walk with a lot of
weight
on my back. My doctor just pushes exercise, which I'm getting.

Doug, I'm not trying to be sarcastic or start a ****ing contest with
you.
I
saw the picture, I read your comments, I offered a way to get the
exercise
the doctor suggested and do something enjoyable and challenging at the
same
time.

I find golf to be a complete snore. I've tried it. And, it's certainly
not
strenuous enough to have any real value to me.


Change courses.

If you walked four miles, carrying your clubs, with some hills and
valleys,
and you didn't work up a sweat, then put 150lbs on your back and run
four
minute miles.

WHY??? The game itself bores me. Why should I pay money to use a stretch
of
lawn for a game that bores me?


You shouldn't.

John, you're never alone with a schizophrenic. (thank you Joe Walsh)

You find gardening exciting? Gardening is fine but it's...gardening.

Maybe golf is too expensive for you. That wouldn't be a reason to trash
others who can afford to play the game.

Yes it is. Is also the drug of choice for Bipolar disorder or Manic
Depression as it was known in the past days. A disease that I would wish on
no one. I know about it because of a relative by marriage suffered for it
until she died of old age.

Lithium is very helpful to many who need mood stabilization.
