Also 6 hours of lessons, with lunch in between, breaks, and passing periods to dick around w/ your friends is A LOT better than 9 hours stuck at work, not surrounded by friends or attractive females, EVERY day?

job, check
mortgage, no, but I do have rent so same deal
house, well I do have to clean my apartment but I don't have to deal with repairs if I don't want to
car, check
pet, thought about it but realize I don't have the time to take care of one at the moment
kids, only for dinner

Sure, I hear what you're saying about having nothing to do all day but sit around jerking off. That doesn't mean highschool didn't suck, or that I wish I was back in that hell hole.

To be honest I have enjoyed just about every job I've held more than high school (including cleaning bathrooms in a grocery store). Being productive >>>>>>>>>> having to sit through classes.

Good advice. I have the feeling the guy will break once he realizes how much work goes into building your own PC and he can't just spend 10 minutes on a message board to figure it out.

I've got a cheap pallate when it comes to wine, so I'm probably not he best person to ask. I usually drink Berriinger (cabernet) or Jacob's Creek (Aussie cabernet) if I can find it. There are dry white wines aswell, but I don't have a preference there since I rarely drink white wine...unless I'm jonesin for some hooch.

If I had a bottle of port in front of my now, I'd probably down the entire bottle in a matter of seconds. And I hate port.

And those aren't very dry compared to most reds. I hate Merlot for example. It tastes like straight alcohol and if that's the case, give me jack. If you say they aren't too dry, I'll get one of the two, otherwise, I'll keep looking.

2. Roll your feet inward, placing all your weigh on your instep. Note the position of your hips.
3. Now roll them outward to place the weight on the outer edge of your feet. See what it does to your ankles, knees and hips? If you aren't absorbing the load correctly when you run, you can fuck up all kinds of stuff over time.

Most people run the inefficient way (including me). The heel of the foot strikes the ground first, killing a large portion of the energy created my the back foot. The process goes on and on and on. Kenyan runners tend to strike the ground closer to the ball of the foot/midstep area. THis takes less effort.

Things you can do to run better:
1.Get some decent shoes (I like New Balance)
2. If you're flat footed, get some orthotics (shoe inserts) to correct your arch.
3. Read up on proper running form.
4. And last, but certainly not least, "RUN ON GRASS!!" - Revok

Running on pavement is hard on your body.

Great info man, thanks alot.

Im gonna research the POSE method. It seems to work the best, and some SEALs and guys who are training for BUD/S recommended this to me...and those fuckers run like 30 miles a week.

I'm the same way. I think some people just like bitter, while some like sweet. I can't drink dark beer either (too bitter) or black coffee.

Though if you pair a good wine with the right food there is nothing better. I think that's the key to acquiring a taste for the dryer stuff (if it's possible to).

Lame attempt by Iran to get us to fire on their go fast boats and create an international incident.

I think Pinot Noir is a little "wetter" than cabernet.

There's nothing wrong with reaching for the straight whiskey...unless you're in church, then wine is your only option. And what shitty wine it is.

Thanks, bacon. I'll be getting wine this weekend.
