Man I didn't realize so many Mid-Atlantic severe peeps are on the Doom-And-Gloom Express (based on last night's posts). Need to reprise my role of hype man for these events.

Anyone else here into working out? Me and my fiance hit the gym 6 days a week and take what we eat seriously. Gym couple goals. 

I’m into working out at the buffet line. It’s such a great feeling. Great pic though. What a hot couple.

Nice! I started to work out for the first time ever last fall. Turned 45 and felt old and slow for the first time in my life. Reduced the crap I was eating too. Went from 170->155 and can actually see some muscles now. I don't go to a gym though, just bought a set of weights and alternate between arms/abs/biking(legs). My motivation is to hopefully prolong my years here and spend more quality time with the family. Also thinking it might be another 40 years until we see a BECS so I need to last till at least 85.

Hey whatever works for you right? Glad you decided to try and become more healthy. Always a good thing.

I’ve always done gym workouts or cardio, etc, but what made the most difference to just how I feel was starting to do 10-20 mins of yoga each morning a few years ago. Took aches and pains down 80% or more. Also helped limit the injuries that kept stopping gym routines. Has helped me be able to lose 10-15lbs.

I’ve been talking about trying out yoga for quite a while now. I’ve never been particularly flexible (though athletic), and I’m thinking it can help my golf game.

My wife (who is obviously a very good listener ) just got me a three-week trial at a local studio for my birthday, so I’m going to give it a whirl.

zwyts is back!  Missed by many this winter!!

Today when driving home 270, Beltway and route 50 exit the standing water and flooding because of clogged drains was insane.  I had mentioned to co workers that the amount of trash on the sides of the roads is crazy .  That excessive trash is the reason for the flooding on the highways.  Can we clean up the roads government its excessive. Rant over

No one at TSA-just walk on through lol

Anyone heard about the entire lower Mississippi draining away thru deep fissures? Barge traffic is halted. Strait of Hormuz is not our only problem.

Look for many items to become highly expensive. Barge folks will use trucking and rail lines and it will cost big time, Guess who gets to pay it? All of us. Man, America is falling completely apart. Bridges over the Mississippi will collapse because they were never engineered for such low water levels. They are saying all the water draining away in the fissures beneath the Mississippi will make the New Madrid Fault let go at 10 plus on the Richter Scale.

Also, Sierras hitting 64/47 just like in high summer over there. Early snowmelt, NO WATER come Summer. NONE at all. In fact, it IS full Summer at Mammoth now. Steady state 60s for highs, upper 40s even 50s for lows! Hell they were warmer than we were in Buda two days ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jebman]

I have totally given up hope for Mammoth. Only 8 long desolate months til Sierran Winter. I guess they only get snow from November to February.

I hate Global Warming. Fuck Fuck Fuck FUCK!

I was fooking CHEATED! Lucy is a hard hitter, especially in the Sierra.

Pray for @RevWarReenactor. I have been tasked with the unpleasant duty of informing you all that he is currently in the hospital with a severe kidney stone episode that has possibly led to kidney failure after eating a Big Arch and it’s questionable if he’s going to make it. I know some in this sub don’t see eye to eye with him but he’s still human and some things transcend message board drama.
