Tonight I went swimming, pulled off 10 laps and I was like fainting, but I came to relise how athletic and fun the sport is.

It's nice to get out away from the computer once in a while, see that society exsists outside of my screen.

Sometimes I wonder if maybe I should just back off from computers (I mean, say cut my usage down to 2 hours a day), find new hobbies, more social stuff, focus on education etc...

thinking outloud here...

That's just the Matrix, Technik. It's got you fooledinto thinking tht there's something to life besides sitting behind a keyboard and staring at a monitor. Don't you see, all that moving around and being active just feeds it more energy! How can we defeat the Matrix with you supplying all that power to it! :wink:

On a serious note, well, sorta serious anyway, I have a weight bench, a set of weights, and a recumbent (semi-reclined riding posture) exercise bike that my wife makes me use at least five times a week so I won't die of a heart attack or a stroke or something else related to sitting on my ass for 10 - 16 hours a day.

Do not make computers your life, career yes, but don't fill all your spare time up with them.

Go explore the world

Js right, divide your time. its a big world out there guys..... enjoy it.

Yes, I pulled off 15 labs two days ago, so I'm going for 20 laps tonight. Damn my legs are like rubber still...

Good show Noel. Did you get DOMS? Anyway, no pain no gain...

DOMS?

I'm with BigO, what are DOMS?

Yeah, swimming is a great sport, I really like it. Just a year ago I was afraid to put my face in the water, now I dive and touch the bottom of the pool.

J u WHORE.....i thought u said bob and u were over

DOMS=Delayed Onset Of Muscle Soreness... sory

I am getting ready for maple sugar season so spend all my extra time on snow shoes in the deep snow. Just thinking about ten laps makes my legs rubbery

I didn't understand a word of that, lmao

Here in the north east we make maple syrup from the sap of the maple tree. I tap over 1k of trees on pipeline that runs through the woods. The mainline is over 1/4 mile long up the monutain. Right now i am repairing pipeline and hanging taps that will be drilled into the trees. I will post pictures when we start boiling sap probably in about two or three weeks. It takes 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of maple syrup worth about 35 dollars retail. If this is a good year and so far it looks real good i will produce 100 to 150 gallons of finished syrup. On the scale of things i am a tiny producer, there are producers that will tap upwards of 40k trees and buy sap besides.

Ahh neat, just saw a martha stewart episode (I mean fuck, who couldn't like that show! ) about maple syrup, kinda interesting accually.

well I'm upto 8 front crawl/8 back glide, so that's 16 for those feeling a slightly lazy.
