Miltary Guys I Need Help.
Ha thanks for the laugh. But it is pretty close. All the males on my moms side of the family. Have a hard time finding shoes, or boots to fit us. Were all a size 11wide or bigger. My cousin is some thing like a 15 or 16 ew. I swear were the missing link. Raider I will have to check them out. As for getting struck by lighting. I don't have a come back for that. As it sits right now. There is good chance it could happen. After all I am 6ft tall. Work in a machine shop. So I bet I have more metal imbedded in the first few layers of my skin. Then the normal person. I know some times when working out after work. I can smell wet metal when I sweat. Some times I smell like rust. I am a walking lighting rod.

To give you guys a better Idea. On why I kill boots. This is what I walk on every day. Some days the floor is blue from these things. To the point were you can't even see the floor. If your wondering what it is. I work in a machine shop. So its little flakes of metal.

I have never had luck finding a pair of red wings that fit. I once tired a 12 extra wide. It was way to tight in the width, and the length. I tried a 13 ew. It was to tight in the width. The length was ok. So I tried a 14 ew. Still to tight in the width. If they would have fit. I still would have not gotten them. There was a good 2 inches of toe space. And that was on my bigger foot. Raider not sure I need if I need a million watts of protection like you need. Don't get me wrong them are nice boots. Just not sure If I could spend 400 plus on boots. At this point in my life right now.

Every day work is the main reason. But I tend to wear boots almost all the time. When I am fishing, doing yard work, and Shoveling snow. You know stuff like that. I the only time I don't wear boots. Is when I am sleeping or working out.

Any Of You Guys Ever Do Martial Arts?
I think so. Just not 100% sure though. Tomorrow when I go to the gym. I will ask around.

Any Of You Guys Ever Do Martial Arts?
I am all ready doing that stuff. I hit the gym any were from 5-6 days a week. The only thing that is holding me back Is my cardio. No I don't smoke. I never have had great cardio. I was talking with my trainer before she moved. I told her I was looking in to boxing lessons. She said even a hour or two a week. Would really help my cardio. So cine there is no gymaround here. I asked her about Muai Thai. She said that would also work.

If you directed that at me. I am not worried about belts or awards. I just want to use to stay in shape. I would take boxing. But I think the nearest gym in a hour and a half away. If not longer.
-
Any Of You Guys Ever Do Martial Arts?
I am thinking about doing it. There is a place near me. That offer BJJ, Muay Thai, and some a few other things. I am looking to add more cardio to my work out. So I figured that would be a good way to go.

For You Single Guys Looking For Love....
I hate the color black on vehicles. I also don't have a need for a truck yet. So I guess I will be single for ever.

That is pretty inserting. I figured farmed stuff would use chemicals, and not be in the dirt as long. I don't know if it effects taste or not. As I have never eaten, or drank some thing. Were the main source is ginseng. I did see a farm in WI that sells it on the web. At 10 dollars a oz. Mind you I don't know what to price is for wild. But at that price. A few people could be watching this show. Knowing they could make a pretty penny just robbing local farms.

Whats really that different about it? Other then it being in the ground longer. When it is wild ginseng.
-
Appalachian Outlaws
I say its fake. That stuff is farmed up here in acres. Its not fenced in, or guarded with armed security. If the big farms up here were having the same problems. Like they talk about in the show. It would be all over the local news.

'one Ring' Phone Scam
If a number calls I don't know. I will not pick up the phone. I figure if they are some one important. They will leave a message. I also have a tendency to goggle numbers I don't know.

Finally, Pre-Season Thunder At Daytona
I agree it means auto racing is about the begin. In a few weeks the Rolex 24 of Dayona will be live. Then around the time the Nascar season starts. There is a 24 hour sports car race in the middle east. Around mid March. The F1 season starts and 12 hours of Sebring is run. Nascar gos to Bristol. As munch as I like the first few months of racing. I like the May, June, July months better. In May we get the Monaco f1 race, The Indy 500 and Coke 600 on the same day. In June the 24 hours of Le Mans and the 6 hours of the glen is run. Then throw in the 24 hours of the Nurburgring. To finish off the month. In July we get the fire cracker 500 at Daytona. Later in the month. There is a 24 hour race at Spa. I cant wait for the racing seasons to begin.

Finally, Pre-Season Thunder At Daytona
As munch as I like motor racing. I just can't get excited for testing. Testing never proves any thing. It don't matter if its NASCAR, F1, or any other series. Top teams and drivers are mid pack, or at the bottom of the standings.

College Bowl Games
I am with you on this years bowl games. I was looking at the spread for all the games. Vegas said only two games had a 1 point spread. One was the badgers game. The other I can not remember. The games were 3-10 points. While a few had 14 plus points.
