Cancer Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 No they don't. Too many diagonal guy lines with anchors in the ground there. In programming, all those guy lines would be skyhooks hanging off empty air. Old Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Pick a major you love, and you'll never work a day in your life. ...because they're probably not hiring in that field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Interesting typo I made (and fixed): So what's up next, now that Hero versus Her is in the beauty contest stages? Sounds like a bad sitcom series prototype: superheroes and their dysfunctional romantic relationships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Somewhere I remember blundering across an expression, "fatigue toxins addict", being used in reference to ultra-endurance-sport athletes. My google-fu is weak this morning and I am not finding a source for the comment (or any other things along the same lines). Anyone got something bearing on this concept that they can point me at?

L. Marcus Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 From you, was the first time I heard of it. Endorphin high is more probable amongst extreme sporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Marcus Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 A friend of mine, a Somali imigrant and long-distance runner of self-described mediocrity, has taken up cross-country skiing. He aims a the Olympics, bless him. And I think that's not impossible, given the Somali competition in winter athletics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 That's cool! I hope he makes it eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Fingers crossed, and that. He says it'd be much easier to reach the winter Olympics as a Somali skier than the summer games as a Somali runner, as those are apparently a dime a dozen.
