        Fucking liver killers. Drinking is as cool as smoking cigarettes, in my book.

          I'll counter all the drinking in here, and say that other than the year before last year (when I tried again in ernest), I've been sober for 5 years. Not had a drink for the last 18 months. Have some $50/bottles being cellared under the stairs since 2009….Happiness is swimming, cycle, coffee, and denim 🙂

          Good for you. The only times I have more than one drink in a night are at large parties (like the IH/SE weekend). I'll have a beer or a glass of wine with my dinner maybe once every couple of months.

          I used to drink really heavily seven days a week, but saw how drinking excessively can change people and throttled back fast and hard (my best friend and ex girlfriend both managed to alienate everyone around them)

          I stay focused on family, work and exercise now

            I, too, am mostly a social drinker.  The IH/SE party probably involved more booze consumption for me than the previous 6 months combined.  It was a great time, though.

            And like you, Mega, I feel the need to make some changes.  Specifically, I need to shed some weight (30+ lbs.) and improve my cardiovascular health.

                Upon the recommendation of a couple members here, I started doing kettlebells at home for strength and cardio training. Hugely recommended. Bought the "Skogg System" DVDs on Amazon and have been using them religiously for four months now

                  Btw, I DO NOT recommend swinging kettlebells around pets or children…

                  One of my cats thought it would be a good idea to sneak up on me while I was doing swings...didn't go well for him...

                        First, what the hell took you so long to see it?

                        Second, yup. There was kind of a "poof" noise, knocking over the coffee table, bouncing off the couch and then skidding across the hardwood floor

                            C'mon Doug, I've got two small children and a wife that gets hurt if I do something "fun" without her.  I can't even remember the last movie I saw in a theater.  We couldn't begin watching Avengers until after the little monsters were asleep, since we wanted to hear the dialog.  Crazy, I know.

                                I watched Thor about 15-20 minutes at a time over a period of two weeks.  It's sad, but this is my life now.

                                    Thor did not suck, worst Marvel films recently have been X-Men First Class and the (not so) Amazing Spiderman.

                                        Thor wasn't bad, and I thought Spiderman was pretty good.  But that could be just because I think Toby Maguire is slightly creepy and Emma Stone makes everything happy.

                                        Didn't see First Class, but it didn't look good, based on commercials.

                                          Not looking forward to the (now upcoming) JLA movie…... but I can't discuss it further or I'll end up in a "Christopher Nolan is the most over-rated director ever" argument.

                                            Mega, no first class? Are you holding out hope for "days of future past"? Fassbender as young magneto was fun, and having him and Sir Ian together hopefully will be good. Really crossing my fingers that man of steel will rule, Michael Shannon as Zod…. Whoa.
