And I'm liking the way my wife is looking at me now too. Not that she looked down at me before, but it's... better... more manly... :) I’ve been doing StrongLifts 5×5 for 2 weeks now and can attest that going from zero lifting to this point is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.

So, Ted Turner was a failure. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson too. The list goes on. How about all those pharmaceutical companies and the Doctors who prescribe these toxins? I guess America is filled with losers. Now lets see if there is a "winner" who came to America as an immigrant speaking no English and with a near unpronounceable name. Someone who has also smoked pot on film, but unlike some poor black person in Texas who would go to jail for years for the same "offence" became the Governor of your most populace state in the country. Need I say more. The pot myths are dying on the vine so to speak. Ever seen a fist fight among pot smokers? How about drunks? I rest my case. “Winners don’t do drugs.” Really?

Hobby. Smoking pot, drinking beer, playing video games, … Those can all be fun, but they're not rewarding in the long-term. Get a real hobby. Lift weights, build muscle, lose the belly, get stronger." Can't I smoke the pot AND life weights? They are not mutually exclusive. “4. Hobby.
