No shoot.


Wouldn't any decent drill instructor demand 100 pushups for
misspelling "Marine"? :-)


He'd be SOL... best I ever did was 72 full pushups.... that is , touching my
chest each time and fully extending my arms on the up portion.


72? Oh heck, I can easily double or triple that. Now of course you'll
need to allow me to perform these pushups 2-3 at a time and over the
course of several days....... :-)

Are you assuming a Marine DI could spell marine? :}
I am sure you would not say that to a DI in person.


Sure I would.


No doubt as you know that the ACLU and legal restrictions would prevent the
DI from decking you.

Take away these restrictions and I doubt you would take that challenge.

I can probably make an arrangement for a retired USMC DI to meet wtih you so
you can follow through with your post.

Still game?

Every man wants to be a macho macho man
to have the kind of body, always in demand
Jogging in the mornings, go man go
works out in the health spa, muscles glow
You can best believe that, he's a macho man
ready to get down with, anyone he can

Hey! Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Macho, macho man (macho man)
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man
I've got to be a macho! Ow....

Macho, macho man
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man (yeah, yeah)
I've got to be a macho!

You'd be better off asking him to spell 'DI'. He'd probably be able to
handle that!



That would be "DEE" "EII"


Why you find pleasure in insulting our military is beyond me Harry. When
doing so you insult every member here.

Sleep nice tonight as our troops are watching your back.


No one is insulting anyone. Calm down.

Jim, you're sure full of the threats today! I imagine any retired DI you
could find would get a laugh out of Harry's post. You're working hard at
making a total ass out of yourself.

I think I got up to about 32 once. Having 37" arms is not an aid to
pushups. The short armed little guys definitely had the advantage in the
pushup category.


Good Lord! I could do 20 one handed.
I'm talking 35 years ago.

This reminds me to get at my Bowflex again. I moved it down to mom's room a
couple weeks ago as we got ready for our oldest son to visit from out west
(Calgary)

Hey...........you took the challenge and I offered a way to accomodate it.

The offer stands.

Still game?




What's your retired DI going to do? Show up at my front door and try to
bust in? That would be "home invasion." I know how to deal with home
invaders. :}

Harry, we all know you are one tough SOB and could knock out any USMC DI who
confronted you in person.

Did JohnH teach you this skill?




You have me all wrong, Jim. I'm not a fisticuffs guy. If someone tries
to break into my house while I am at home, I'm not going to punch him.
I'm going to blow his head clean off with a 12 gauge shotgun.
