    Extant [CBS] Halle Berry - July

    The first couple of episodes I liked and thought this would be a good solid show but how things change. The plots are so laughable even my wife can't believe how shit this show is. If this doesn't get cancelled soon I will be amazed.

    You sound just like me! I have been gaming since space invaders in the local arcade and I have never played turn based strategy games or any strategy games for that matter, it's been FPS or MMO's for the most part. Anyway, I recently picked up XCOM and then Civ 5 and these games are addictive...

    I bought all these bundles which have some some good ones among them. You get a steam key for each game so if you already have any you can give it to someone you love. What I do is check games on steam and then some game play videos on youtube for those games I am not familiar with; you also get...

    If you are like me missing gym time is not an option. I have been doing this since age 22, I am now 50 and have never injured myself in the gym in all that time so I guess I am stubborn or was in denial Having said that initially it was not that bad just more of an annoyance and I would...

    Seriously, have it checked out and get a MRI to rule out a partial tendon tear because it is the same place where my injury was. I thought I had a bad case of tendinitis and I lived with it for 6 months and worked around the pain but it never went away and as you may know I did eventually have a...

    FWIW I trained for a marathon 3 years ago, I was up to 20 mile runs twice a week and a couple weeks out from the marathon when I strained my Achilles. Basically I trained too much even though I was following a training program that I have been doing for months. I was eating around 4000 calories...

    Bicep tendon tear (couple posts back) Using pain meds now though, stretching the arm hurts like hell after a few minutes. Day one and I can move it down 15 degrees so good progress but I do feel extremely vulnerable in this brace.

    10 days since surgery, got the stitches out today and cast removed and an arm brace fitted that gives me motion from 90 degrees "sling position" down about 30 degrees or so and i'll be this way for the next 4 weeks as i slowly work the arm within these limits. Overall things are moving along...

    I think it started last September moving my kid into her dorm, I carried a TV for 15-20 mins and held it in the same position and when i put it down my bicep hurt like hell for a while then seemed to go away. However, doing body-weight +25lb weighted chins for example started to really aggravate...

    Well my feeling of "I don't think its as bad as they are telling me" didn't pan out unfortunately; 50% of my tendon was detached from the bone so now its time to focus on healing to get myself back in the gym ASAP.

    I thought I'd share my workout as I'll be laid up for a few months after surgery later this week and I can come back here and get all emotional. My weight is 161 and only varies by a pound or two, I am 5'9" and will be 50 in a couple months. I don't worry about what the weight is other than...

    Last September I was moving my kid into college, I carried an older TV up 5 flights of stairs all the time in a huge slow moving queue which was simple enough except I held it in the same position the entire time (about 15-20 minutes), when I put it down my left arm was aching pretty bad...
