Forum: Over 35 Misc

Hi Friends, I got some bad news today. My Dad has been falling a lot lately; he is 76, he was admitted into the hospital to have some tests done. I spoke to his doctor and he has brain cancer. This is the second go around with cancer for him. The first was lung cancer about a year ago. ...

I have been getting a few PM's about this. 1. Changing the forum to over 30. 2. No one under 30 may post. Poll will be public so I can make sure the members are of age.

I don't know what it is but every fuggin protein bar I've ever tried gives me bad gas. Aren't a majority of these made with soybeans? There's been times when the gas surplus was fun(unsuspecting co-workers :D ) but I can't take my own stench any more. I'm probably contributing to global...

It was a what-the-heck moment, so I created a profile at bigmuscle.com. I uploaded 3 pics, per their daily restriction, of bare chest and arm shots, per their requirement for initial uploads. Five minutes later I see this on my profile page: Once I get up to this guy's size, I guess I'll...

I've spent a few Christmas's standing the dog watch with my brothers-in-arms. I don't know if this has been posted before and if so, please forgive me. But being that kid, in a foreign land whose name I could not spell, having an MRE for Christmas dinner, at times, not even knowing what day it was,...

Frutti di Mare fra Diavolo goes really well with Guinness in case you were wondering. What's one of your favorite pairings?

My wife and I went out with some of our friends from her work last night. We don't get together with them all that often, but when we do it usually gets a little crazy and sometimes involves nudity :D There were 16 of us at a pub. The drinks and shots were flowing. After we had been there a...

Has anyone seen this movie yet? Just watched it, and I didn't know whether to be horrified, amused, or disgusted. Guess it was all three.

Copy the below bingo card and take it with you the next time you visit Wal-Mart.

Not really, but ever since I quit smoking on 9/1/08 I've developed a real taste for it. That may not sound wierd but heres the thing, I never ever liked it before I quit. Even as a kid I never ate the stuff, now I could eat a jar a day if I let myself. I don't want to believe it could have...

Gain weight. Yes, you heard right, gain weight. Muscle weight! Muscle weight! lol I'm getting back into the gym with a vengeance, inspired in part by Saturday's workout, and my adjusted medications. In fact I'm going into my job's fitness center now to do chest. OK, it's on the Smith, but...

So last night I was doing rack deads, not as heavy as the big boys but heavy for me especially since I am back from a long lay off. (495lbs pins under the knees) The same Mo-fo who was bitching about me dropping the weights comes up to me again. Says to me, this time in a more calm voice but...

Which would you throw and why?

I find myself picking this guys movies, he's not giant tough like arnie or the rock, or skinny tough like van damme or brad pitt. He's just kind of built as an aside, his movies aren't really about how swole he is, but the guy has a helluva build in every movie he does. As a NY'er I hate to say it...

I am 39 years old. I am 6' 4" and weight 270. I do not consider myself fat but most my weight is on my belly. Wish is pretty large due to late night eating and beers. However, I am about to start a dedicated workout and therefore I will eat clean and cut out the beers. My problem is in what...

How do you deal with interviewing for a job & you find out the income range isn't at all what you want? I was in this situation, everything was going well- then he mentioned the pay is about -15% from what I have now. Who knows maybe 2 months from now -15% might be the best I can do. I told him I...

So daughter and I were grocery shopping last night. We get to the junk food aisle. Well there's junk food in every aisle I know. We get to the cookies and chips aisle and I just go past. Then I think, you know, I haven't had fig newtons in a while. I think my daughter was reading my mind. She pipes...

I just discovered something interesting. Another bodyspace user posted two photos of me on his bodyspace. They are photos that I had deleted some time ago. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm flattered that someone would think me good enough looking to use my photos, but it kinda makes me...

So I have some "found" money in the budget this month. I've got all my other bills and xmas presents covered. I've even got some put into savings. So I'm going to reward myself with a little present. I'm giving myself a $100 limit. I'll prob only spend half that. I don't really have any NEEDS...

So I go to my parents house tonight just to change my front brakes on my truck. A relatively easy job, should only take me a hour or so. My rotors don't need to be turned only changing the pads. My and my dad tackle the job and get done in NASCAR record time of 1 hour 5 minutes. So I just in...

My wife has finally made me realize that I have reached the age of no longer being the "alpha male". She has informed me (and rightly so) that try to be the big dog at my age just makes me look like an idiot. I'm the guy who is always competing with everyone and has to be in charge. Or should I...
