I'm impressed by any professional chef who's under 180. I'm decent at cooking, but if I had any serious talent I'd probably be pushing 300

Yeah, weight does that. When I decided to lose a bunch of weight (successfully), I found that it wasn't a good idea to weigh myself every day. Leads to discouragement because you could be really loyal to your diet/exercise plan for a day and still gain weight for no explainable reason. Better method is doing it every week or every two weeks. Which one of these seems simpler and less stressful? Day 1: 200.0 Day 2: 199.5 Day 3: 200.0 Day 4: 199.0 Day 5: 199.5 Day 6: 199.0 Day 7: 199.0 Day 8: 198.0 or Day 1: 200.0 Day 8: 198.0 Same result without all the grief.

You could make something in the morning and pack it to go.

Brown, long-grain. I'm a convert to whole grain.

I try to stay away from most extreme sugar sources, but Rita's is an exception every time I travel to Philly or Boston. Stuff can't be beat. They put one in Buffalo and it closed down after one season.

Yep. It's nothing too complicated. Just mince tomato, onion and jalapeno pepper. Natural juices come from all three ingredients, and you can add a splash of water if you want more moisture. Add a few squeezes of lime juice (or lemon if that's what you have available) and cilantro to taste. Enjoy.

Roasted green bell pepper stuffed with rice and home-made pico de gallo. Also, a salad of fresh greens drizzled with miso-ginger dressing.

Well, I assume it wouldn't hurt as much on your manicorn horn.

Amen to that...I've got til 9 this evening til my weekend though.

You'll always be Steely Dan to me...happy birthday dude!

Sarcasm meter broken?

Especially sexual rights. I think the parent of a six year old has the right to be a part of their child's life, but not when it comes to the bedroom.

Graham is a journalist, but his blog on espn.com is not journalism...it's a blog.

Gonna cozy up with a nice can of Slurm and watch.

The people who are big enough golf fans to actually watch a tournament live gave him good reactions...I think there is a fair amount of vitriol from the general public, especially women.

Actually, I'm a seldom-used long relief pitcher. But seriously yes, YOU have OUR number. Fans participate in their respective franchises too, so I stand by the colloquialism.

I'll be impressed if you go and hunt one.

Angels I assume? Can't think of too many other teams that have our number...anyway, Yankees took the last series.

Shut the !@#$ up, Donnie.

Well, when a Muslim martyrs himself, he gets 73 Virginians in heaven, right? Why didn't they just stay in Virginia?

LET'S GO YANKEES! LET'S GO YANKEES! I don't know what team you root for, but I'll be nice and extend to you an invitation to our next World Series parade.

I definitely wouldn't have thought of Davis being on that list either. I think of him almost exclusively in humorous terms, much like Ralph.

Well, McGwire's been retired for even longer and he somehow made the list...plus, McGwire may have been just as much of a cheater as Bonds, but he certainly wasn't as much of a jackass.

It sounds like they're young enough that their metabolism hasn't caught up with them. Sometimes this doesn't happen until a person's in their 30's, but it's inevitable...a sustained unhealthy diet WILL catch up with you. I have a friend/colleague who eats like this. Nothing but processed/frozen foods and sodas. He's 22 and doesn't weigh any more than 130 soaking wet. But that doesn't mean he isn't huffing and puffing after walking a half-mile up an incline. Guy gets winded after a couple holes of golf, and he's deluded enough to think he's healthy just because he isn't overweight (yet).
