    Bye Bye Tommy boy Ford kicked out!!

    Re: BY By Tommy boy Ford kicked out!! Agreed. Although the judge was pretty well backed into a corner in terms of what Ford's punishment was. The law is very clear with very little leeway, in other words if the individual is guilty then he MUST vacate office. Ford also through his own...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    Nope, it royally pisses me off even more, because it gets thrown around a lot in regards to women's fitness. "Strength" and "muscle" are apparently dirty words when talking to women. Instead, use the word "tone" so that you don't scare them into thinking that lifting anything heavier than 5lbs...

    Fishing is animal torture

    Not being keen on the idea of hunting or fishing doesn't necessarily make one a vegan/vegetarian though. It just might mean it's not your thing, or you find the idea squeamish and would rather not see how your meat gets to your plate. Personally, I enjoy fishing and would one day like to try...

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    Isn't that the reaction while watching any of the Alien movies?

    The NHL'ers are treated like animals

    This. These players have been eating, sleeping, dreaming, playing hockey non-stop for probably most of their lives. Couple that dedication with intense physical training and athletic ability and *maybe* you'd have an INKLING of a shot at pro sports. Now I'm not necessarily sitting around...

    Alcohol and gaming

    There's a fine line. Slightly buzzed and I find that I have sharper focus and tend to take more chances. After one too many, my reflexes become sloppy and my playing devolves rather rapidly.

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    Don't look at numbers on a scale. It's about how you look, and more importantly, how you feel. Why women get so caught up on that magic number I'll never understand. Secondly, you weigh more than other women because you're freaking TALL. I wish I had your problem. :p P.S. I also wish I had...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    I pretty much agree with the article. I also used to make the exception for using the cables, particularly for pulldowns. Machines aren't a scam per se, but IMO you're not really getting the same functional results.

    Are house prices going to come down?

    I have a hard time believing people would be moving here in droves or buying up real estate if our economy was in the toilet.

    Some great ideas here for your consideration.

    LOL. #8 is definitely true in my experience.

    Are house prices going to come down?

    Thanks to rising prices my wife and I made a lot of money selling our townhouse condo earlier this year. We decided to get in on buying a house ASAP, because I wasn't sure if we would eventually get priced completely out of the area we wanted to live in. Interest rates were also a huge factor...

    Disgraced CIA David Petraeus affair

    Don't get me wrong - my wife and I have openly told each other not to let ourselves go as we age. We're both fairly vain about our looks and bodies, and don't want to get lazy and put on weight just because we're comfortable. 10 years in, and we're still two of the slimmest people I know. But...

    Disgraced CIA David Petraeus affair

    Not saying all men are going to cheat. What I'm asking, is whether having a suitably attractive wife would stop men from cheating. And I highly doubt it. Men who are gonna cheat will cheat. To somehow imply its the wifes fault for not staying young and hot is pretty unfair.

    Disgraced CIA David Petraeus affair

    Wow. An awful lot of comments on his wife's physical appearance. She looks exactly like most other middle aged-older women out there. Who's to say he wouldn't have cheated regardless of what his wife looked like? You honestly think having a hot wife at home is going to make a man faithful...

    Hey, Courtney Stodden was 16 when she married that dude from the X-Files (in his 50's). Icky as all hell, but apparently legal..

    Help me with my commute route!

    That is going to be a hellish commute, regardless of what route you take. I'd say taking the 407 across the top of the city is the only viable option, but I'm not even sure anymore what rush hour commutes are like on that highway. If the job is important enough, then move closer.

    Disgraced CIA David Petraeus affair

    Wow, this story certainly is getting bizarre: http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/11/13/fbi-whistleblower-who-tipped-off-gop-to-petraeus-affair-sent-shirtless-photos-of-himself-to-second-woman-jill-kelley/ It's interesting that people with so much to lose would engage in such dumb behaviour.

    say it aint so, elmo

    Not that I'm condoning this, but having a relationship with a 16 year-old isn't quite the same as molesting a young boy. How many of you cheer on the idea of an older female teacher getting it on with an adolescent male student? Every teenage boy's fantasy, right?

    Disgraced CIA David Petraeus affair

    Just goes to show that (some) women are eager to sleep with men who have power. I mean, look at that guy. Not exactly Brad Pitt.
