LOL. I get it and it's pretty damn funny. Nice one, Kenneth.

There's a difference between gaining weight via ice cream and gaining lean mass!
mmm...ice cream...

a family friend brought gifts of Rum! YES! Good stuff too, not the dime-store shit.

I just like to run. I love to pop in the headphones, and just lose myself in music as I go on an adventure! I try to run at least 4 miles, usually 4 or 5 times a week.

Me too. I run 9 or 10 Km each time. The longest distance I've ever run was 15 Km.

Alcohol itself is very high in calories, so if losing weight is your goal, you'd better stay away entirely!

True. I drink beer almost every day, and my belly is a living proof of how calorific alcohol is.

In the summer and fall, I skate 10-15mi all the time.

I don't do anything active, whatsoever, outside of exercising, so exercising is a must!
Even my job requires sitting down the entire time.
This would also explain why I'm not in as good of shape as most would expect when they see that I workout and supplement, etc. It kinda sucks...

Though I love my Audi to death, I'm thinking of buying a "new" car.

So far, I'm leaning towards a 2008-2009 Subaru WRX STI. I'm considering upgrading from an '04 Audi A4 to an '06 Audi S4... but the STI is becoming more and more tempting...

What do I do?! I was planning on being a loyal Audi fanboy!

I can't believe I actually went through with it! I was talking pipe-dream nonsense in that post, but today I took delivery of my 2007 Audi S4! I am so excited! I had to wait 8 days after signing the papers...AARGH!!!

 

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

Oh, and on another note, I finished phase 1 of P90X2, and start phase 2 tomorrow. I am loving it so far! 30% complete, and I am starting to notice some ab bulging... that's always good.

Wow, I didn't know me and Lepond shared the same birthday.

Happy birthday Mike!

 

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

Well, in that case, Happy Birthday, Marwen!

The Walking Dead series is beyond amazing. Brilliant in every aspect.

I watched 4 episodes before shelving it. Extremely predictable and very annoying stereotypical characters (that don't die fast enough -- if they die).

 

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

Predictable? lol... wow. I feel the exact opposite. I also feel the characters are fully fleshed out, and the acting is top-notch.

It is developing perfectly throughout season 2. The last episode before the break in season 2 ended so well. Intense.

This is why Gavin is the best drummer ever.

 

[Marwen]

Cheers Gentleman!

And Gavin is definitely up there with the best.

Wow, I didn't know me and Lepond shared the same birthday.

Happy birthday Mike!

Happy Birthday, Marwen! I was at the show in SF on Friday night and Russell announced that it was Lepond's birthday.
He had the crowd sing "Happy Birthday". It was cool.

Gentleman, it's my wife and daughter's favorite show. They very much agree with you. They're watching right now.
They also love The Talking Dead where they talk about the show with some of the producers and creators.

 

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

Excellent!

 

[Prog is King]

Gentleman, tonights Talking Dead had Scott Ian of Anthrax in the discussion. He's a huge Walking Dead fan!
