gantrules Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 This country was built on the automobile and it will die by the automobile. If I could walk to where I needed to, I would. But at 10 miles to work and 3 to the nearest grocery store, that's an impossibility. 338222[/snapback] One of my professors at RIT use to ride his bike to and from work every single day no matter the weather conditions. And he lived about 25 miles from campus. He was about 40 at the time and was in unbelievable shape.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 sure gramps... 338412[/snapback] Like you're one to talk about emaciation.... Try carrying a 40-lb toddler 10 miles to her daycare (which is at work).

He was about 40 at the time and was in unbelievable shape. 338402[/snapback] i take it he didn't go by the way of west henrietta road where you'd most likely get mercilessly run over granted, nyc is unique, but it really does keep you in shape. in a lot of american suburbs and exurbs, the way the sidewalks, street patterns, and shopping stripes are set up practically forbid you from walking to a store. 337737[/snapback] i dunno...i still see quite a few fatties in NYC

Its beautiful out and I had a great ride. Ipods are great for biking too
Thurman's Helmet Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 Good lord, mix in a burger or something Lindsay.

Buftex Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 Could Weekend update be any more unfunny?MEH 341936[/snapback] I just turned it on during Weekend Update. I thought the Hardy Boys joke, and the Wal-Mart jokes were pretty damn funny! I guess I just got a thing for Tina Fey. She is not Sara Silverman funny, but pretty close!
Corp000085 Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 I got a kick out of bear city at the end. SNL is very tired. Hopefully they'll do a major overhaul on the cast for next year. What was with the "good luck PP" sign that horatio sanz was holding up?
zow2 Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 Hollywood should take a stand. Don't offer people like Lohan or Nicole Richie (now 97 lbs) any work until they put back on like 10 -15 pounds. Lohan looks awful.
buckeyemike Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 An open letter to Lindsay Lohan: I taped SNL last night...so far I've only watched the first few minutes. Lindsay, you looked so much better with the extra weight. I think most of the men in America would say that. You've almost totally lost your best, ahem, "assets". Now you just look like another emaciated Hollywood actress. There is such a thing as being too skinny. Girl, before it's too late, stop the partying and mix in a trip to Denny's or IHOP to put some carbs back into that bony body of yours. You have the type of figure that, believe it or not, looks yummier with the extra pounds and curves. Heroin chic went out in the late '90s. Mike
Corp000085 Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 Hey we could think about it this way: She's on a serious downfall. This means one thing: "stolen" sex tape. The thing about these tapes is that they're always a couple years old. So, 19 year old skinny cracked up lohan could have a slip of a 3 year old tape, featuring 17 year old perfect 10 lohan getting freaky. I can only hope.
KD in CA Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 I agree. Same with Europe. While I was over there I drank tons of beer every night, lots of espressos, gelato, chocolate, croissants, 3-5 meals every day, etc and I lost 5 pounds in 6 weeks. I walked 20+miles every day. Europeons bike and walk everywhere. I beleive that is why they are thinner. They love their sweets, beers and carbs and yet are still much thinner then your average American 337746[/snapback] Exactly right. The problem is that most of American cities and towns were designed around automobiles. Look at NYC....four lane wide avenues but where the hell would you ride a bike w/o taking your life in your hands? Towns in Europe were all designed hundreds of years ago when people had to walk everywhere, and they still do. I just got back from Malmo Sweden. There were literally thousands of people riding bikes to work every day. Everyone is in great shape. We played 18 holes on a very hilly course and walked it....they never heard of golf carts! LOL btw, the women weren't any prettier than here, but they mostly all have nice athletic bodies.
