Volvos kick ass. Thats a whole another can of worms.

I would put a T19 turbo in here but a T16 might be OK.. For when I get the money to Stage Zero Plus this thing, of course. I dont like NJ anyways. I may live somewhere else. This is the XC so it has the LPT in it.

Oh look. Maybe you do. When you can no longer steal real estate from other people and just free-squat in it, you get POd and attack. Welcome to Germany and German Socialism. Next stop: Greece!

What I HAVE been doing is working out more... If you want to be an idiot then that is up to you.. I also dont believe in gyms, but, hey, as we see money is an issue, I am trying to work out outside.

I am due to update how Court goes.
Gyms exist. Believe.

Well, that's kind of an essential piece of information that changes everything then, and explains why you are prone to buying takeout, fast food, and processed stuff you can just nuke in the microwave (like Spaghetti-Os).

I guess lots of people on food stamps might be in a similar situation, or combination of situations, e.g. no car to drive to supermarket (and no car to haul multiple bags of groceries back home); and/or living in a food desert where it's all fast food, convenience store/bodegas, with little to no access to a proper grocery store.
He doesn't seem to be wasting his time looking for foods which can be cooked in the microwave, like pasta.

The gas line is not hooked up to the stove and it's not an electric stove. I have a microwave. It was made by Sharp.

Isn't pasta bad for you?

I am REDUCING sugars as part of a sugar detox. I also jump in place. I am not a fat ass..

WTF do you think Spaghetti-Os are? They're pasta. If pasta smoked meth and slept in a dumpster.

i cook my oatmeal in the microwave. 1 cup oats, cinnamon, 3 splendas fill with water until covered. microwave on high for 2 minutes 15 seconds. when it comes out, i splash some milk and mix in 3 ice cubes. enjoy. that is my breakfast and dinner m-f. on the weekends i have a bit more freedom but still try to do some oatmeal meals instead of other choices.

btw, this is a summer sexiness diet thing; not what i do all the time.

How does one determine that? If I were on medicare, should I be denied treatment because some doctor *thinks* my condition was brought upon by an unhealthy lifestyle? btw - i don't have diabetes, I run half marathons, weight train, eat well, am 5'7" and weigh 123. Yet I still have a cancer that is thought to be brought upon by poor eating. How does one decide who gets what? sometimes sh** just happens - do we really need to cast dispersions on people with illness - like that isn't stressful enough?

I hope you realize that I was playing Devil's Advocate in order to counter the argument that people receiving public assistance should be able to buy whatever they want with the money that is given to them.

There is no right or wrong answer, and I am not casting aspersions on anyone. I am merely providing some thoughts to ponder, which one can accept, or reject, or...at the very least...contemplate.

i dont think anyone has the inalienable right to free medical treatment but because the US offers free medical treatment to the poor; i dont think you can exclude people based on their lifestyle.

you could adjust the coverage to keep costs under control. maybe you could set criteria for treatment based on BMI. that would be interesting because maintaining a healthy BMI is so easy that its not a big hurdle to jump over and its probably 75% of being healthy.
