“I tell people that the scales lie. You may have played basketball and weighed 175 pounds, with a 30-inch waist, back when you were in college. And you may still weigh 175 at 55. But you probably have a 35-inch waist and you've probably lost 30 or 40 pounds of muscle -- and gained 30 or 40 pounds of fat. The tape measure doesn't lie. Get that tape measure out and put it on your hips and your waist. Keep checking it. And keep exercising and cutting those calories down until that tape measure gets close to where you were in your prime.” PeopleMayStillsLyingLostCuttingCollegeExerciseBasketballScalesFatsHipsMusclesPoundsPrimeInchesTapeBack WhenCalories Author:Jack LaLanne
“Antigun advocates have always faced an uphill battle in this country. Americans have, to begin with, a constitutional right to gun ownership. Today, half of American households exercise this right, owning a total of about 250 million guns; and over 99 percent of those households do so in a responsible manner. To fight for major restrictions on an item that plays such a valued part in the lives of so many people looks like a nearly impossible task. So if you're really committed to the effort, and you want to win, what do you do? Simple: You lie.” PeopleIfsWantLooksCountryPlayTodayLyingFightingWinningSimpleEffortHalfMillionsImpossibleExerciseBattleMajorsPercentGunTasksResponsibleCommittedHouseholdOwnershipItemsRestrictionUphill BattlesGun Ownership Author:Dave Kopel
“I do not care for anything. I do not care to ride, for the exercise is too violent. I do not care to walk, walking is too strenuous. I do not care to lie down, for I should either have to remain lying, and I do not care to do that, or I should have to get up again, and I do not care to do that either. Summa summarum: I do not care at all.” ShouldCareLyingWalksWalkingExerciseShould HaveViolentGet UpEnnui Book:Either/or Source: Either/or
