Born in 64, I’m as young as Boomers get...

Wonderful interview. Thanks. Croft sounds like such a thoughtful writer! I’ll have to pick up her book.

Sorry, no, the most disturbing thing about that baby is those gigantic adult-sized ears.

I see what you did there. :-)

Indeed. Similarly, I have pointed people to the scientific consensus on anthropogenic climate change, vaccinations, the three-dimensional roundness of the earth, and so forth... Universal harmony immediately ensued.

We need more rock education.

My car is entirely constituted of holes. And it was free.

I am a little envious. I’ve tried to run early in the mornings, but my back is too stiff to take the pounding. Way to go, though!

I’m likely look at being 12% BF at the moment which is an improvement of about 10% since January.

Wow, I hadn’t thought of it in those terms. I’ve certainly gone a week, once in a while, on less than 10,000 calories. Excluding liquids, it could be less than 13 pounds.

The “average” human (mean of mean body weight in 177 countries) weighs 139 pounds. If men are 120% heavier than women, that means the “average” man is about 152 pounds, the “average” woman 126 pounds. Heights are separate from these numbers, of course.

Exactly. Think of your body weight, and imagine deliberately increasing that number by 5% to 10% (for anyone between 130 and 260 pounds) in 9 minutes. That’s kind of insane.

Generally I’d say no, but that was a good samaritan level act. I’ll give it a pass.

It takes a special kind of asshole to BRAG about being a cheap asshole.

The comments have covered all this pretty exhaustively, but I’ll add my own general rule anyway. Dear Mary:
