@Jainadave_ I brought my outside discipline into the gym.

Has the gym made you more disciplined outside the gym too?

@ajmahler That's what I've been saying for years.

At 61, being more fit than a vanishing small percentage of my peers, is not winning. Winning is motivating them to do something about their weakness. Getting them into the gym. Go to Gym!

@bpick33 Very nice. At 64 I'm working on a 315 squat, (came close once.) When I do that, a 225 bench and a 315 dead lift, I'll call them lifetime PRs and change focus.

425x3. Misgrooved the last rep but recovered well. On to 500. #Squats #Powerlifting #DocsWhoLift

@TrueJester86 Try eating meat to feel better.

If your body constantly feels tired don’t just ask How much sleep did I get? Also ask What am I feeding my body daily?

Thomas Edison mayn't be from New Jersey, but that's where he did his amazing work. When I was a youngster we went on a class trip to the Edison National Historic Site in West Orange. There was an old guy, a docent, talking about when he was a teenager, he had a job running errands for Edison. I thought nothing of it at the time, but 55ish years later I can say "I met a man who knew Edison."

Who is your favorite historical figure from your state?

@ZacharyYost This goes easy: There's a series of them along rivers, east to west, commemorating their journey.

This goes hard, but it obviously needs to be in Pittsburgh, where the Lewis and Clark expedition launched from.

@Brady_H I classify that as not food.

~10 grams of protein 55 grams of carbs 280 mg sodium Performance fuel.

@AjRockatansky It's amazingly effective.

@MarkBski I'd be making Star Wars lightsaber noises when using that. wisjoooowowwwwvvvvvvvv

Do you have a favorite steak knife?

Intergeneration conflict has been going on since the dawn of history. Kids these days are worthless sacks of shit ~ Seneca

@pjungar But it's the start of an even better journey.

Two simple Truths: Jesus Christ died for our sins. America’s fallen died for our freedom. May we live worthy.

@DorianB112 Perhaps nearly useless.

Let’s be honest: is going to the gym 4 to 5 times a week(consistently) useless if your diet is bad and trash? 🤔

@RidleyMaster @milkandmarrow Yes !!! They seem to be forgotten :(

@MarkBski @milkandmarrow Beat generation!

I love America and I love Americans and I am excited for a very patriotic summer. I want a good book about our country, please drop your best history nerd recommendations

@X_JAdams Good idea !!

@MarkBski I must confess, I often use a pair of kitchen shears. Cuts & transports all in one.

@DunBiken Very admirable cutlery.

@MarkBski Two, from my days in the meat shops… …both Forschner’s, both relatively inexpensive, both have very forgiving edges.

@gri999999 Very nice. We grow fond of some things, like heirlooms or artifacts of our life. What you're looking at is a Henckel as well. My mom had for 70+ years a set of Cutco knives they received as a wedding gift. Quite certain my brother has them.

@MarkBski My best is an old Henkel paring knife that has been my companion in so many situations. It has a duct tape sheath I made for it in 1985. It is still sharp as shit but looks like it has been ground down. No grinder has ever touched it. That one should be buried w/me.

@MarkBski We’re on the street where they do that, and we do extra in the yard etc

New flag

@SeedOilDsrspctr For a modest donation, a local church comes by and places a flag in the curb. Most every house in the neighbor does.

@MarkBski We usually go extra patriotic from Memorial Day to Independence Day. This year we’ll go even harder and probably at least up till Spooky Szn.

We should have monuments such as these from St. Louis, Missouri to Astoria, Oregon along the rivers they traveled, and special monuments in the twin cities of Lewiston, Idaho and Clarkston, Washington.
