| It's been an obsession for me for about 30 years, and I plan never to quit. Unfortunately, I have a heart problem, and have been ordered not to lift any more than I can do 10 reps x 3 sets easily, so that's put me at a plateau for sure, for the past year. I'm going to have surgery in the near futur... |

| I run 8 km four days a week and do a hill run one of those days, I live in a rural area so it's really peaceful and when the weather is crap, I use my treadmill and the gear in my newly acquired gym (I'm so spoiled) and in summer I enjoy a swim in our pool or if I have time at the beach. The weathe... |

| I'm not a fan of egos myself. I don't see why some people always have the desire to be better than everyone around them, is there some competition going on that I don't know about? I think with this kind of attitude it can make people become more self absorbed and less caring of those around them. ... |

| well. There has been this obsession in the past when my ego is up high that I am capable of accomplishing some amazing physical feats. I thought it would be a good idea to try a push-up where I clap my hands behind my back when I power up. Of course I face planted. And yes, I was drunk and at a par... |

| 1984 Toyota Celica Supra. $1500. In my garage with the engine about to be pulled. If I get some cash, I'm thinking it'd be smart to get an Aristo 2JZ-GTE and keep my car auto and just put the newer Aristo trans on the Supra, as my A43DE has 250K on it anyway. Auto would be way cheaper to do, as I w... |

| My wife doesn't believe it either ; she thinks my aspie traits (including AQ score of 43) were caused by my past very isolated upbringing in total silent household with a single mother who hardly ever spoke, so I never got introduced to the idea of socialising and never had a 'daddy figure' in the ... |

| Well she seemed genuine in at least liking me a little. I know the money she used for my meals meant nothing to her since she is rich. Maybe she was on some sort of ego trip. She was only staying in Beijing for a month, so maybe she just wanted a boy toy? I don't talk to her anymore and I'm with a ... |
