rachael7 1 Report post Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Same basic reasons we have things like 'teabaggers'. The rise of extremism and the renewed acceptance of bigotry, hate, and discrimination that seem to be the mainstay of our commercial media these days.And there ain't nothing wrong with being sexy, baby ;-) As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can live without the rock and roll Edited December 30, 2010 by rachael7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pass the bisk 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2010 High school hockey players. Oh my god, what a joke. I was back home and went to a drop in to keep my legs fresh. wow. I don't know why but for some reason high school players across the country seem to think they are in the show. I had a couple of buddies from my team with me and we absolutely destroyed them. Didn't even touch the puck, but then in the room after they talk about how they weren't trying or skating hard. PUHHHLEASE. Like how can they not realize they are not good?

dsjunior1388 81 Report post Posted January 1, 2011 My roommates teetotaler girlfriend is sucking the life out of our New Years "Party." so far we've had awkward conversation, watched a DVD, and I've had 2 drinks. No excitement, no laughs, no fun. Not surprising with her but everyone else is matching her pathetic mood. Happy f-ing New Year. College isn't going to last forever, I should be having fun, not hanging around a wet blanket. I need to stop appeasing my friends and do whatever I f-ing want. Hey, there's a New Years resolution.

Too Old 1 Report post Posted January 1, 2011 F--- cancer. A longtime friend who's only 44 is now in hospice care after battling Stage IV lung cancer which spread. He'll leave two kids behind. Another older friend was diagnosed two months ago with Stage IV lung cancer that's also spread to lymph nodes/etc. This after losing a high school pal a couple months ago to lung cancer which spread through his body. Last year it was a high school classmate that lost a battle with pancreatic cancer. We need to spend half as much even on cancer research as we do being the world's police department.

Landed square on it twice, felt like I didn't even have a pad on even though it was in perfect position both times, now I can't even lean on it. Guess that's my excuse to Wifey pick up new elbow pads... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsjunior1388 81 Report post Posted January 4, 2011 Got my gold AK27 broken today. Favorite stick I've ever owned. Thats not why I'm pissed.I'm pissed because it was broken because my supervisor at the rink decided to skate up behind me and come down on it like he was chopping wood. In a 3 on 2 half ice game where the intensity level was about 6 out of 100, and another co-worker was in goal, who usually plays center. Safe to say we weren't taking it that seriously. At least most of us weren't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any tips or ideas?Have you considered a program with strength and power training (not hypertrophy), followed by high intensity interval training? It works for me.

I've been spending most of my time on the elliptical machine, and it doesn't seem to be doing the trick. Any tips or ideas?The question I would ask is how long are you working out and how much intensity? To burn fat it is recommended that you work at a moderate intensity for at least 30 minutes 5 days a week. You can break that up into 3 ten minute exercises if you want. The elliptical should have the guidelines for your heart rate of a moderate intensity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
