A long time comin'
So here's what's been happening since my last post. . .(he takes a long breath)
-got kicked out of my place and had to move back into my parents house, because my roommate decided to sell the house. No hard feeling toward him so we're cool.
-turned 21 on the Dec. 7th woohoo. Not to sure how I feel about this yet but there's nothing I can do about it but accept it, and if I decide I hate it then I can sit in my room with hands over my ears until I turn 22.
-actually not much else has happened lately. I'll have to keep everyone posted(and yes more than once a month)
-J
I didn't write these.
Exercise and dieting
Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats and that's it. Don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So, a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have body fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
--------
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain... Good
--------
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING! Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?
--------
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO!!! Cocoa beans ... another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!
--------
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
--------
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets and, remember, "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body but, rather, to skid in sideways - Pepsi in one hand, hamburger in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO! What a Ride!'"
