    It's that time again 😐

    Anyone have or had experience with a "Walking Pad"?

    I have a Landice L7 treadmill, and have tended to keep using it less and less. The main reason is that it's bouncy, not the same as walking or running on the ground, Thus over the last few years I've been preferring to walk back and forth in the hallway instead. My floors are concrete, which...

    What exercise have you done today?

    1 mile around the neighborhood this morning, my first walk outside for almost 2 months. I went around 11 am this morning when it was 70 degrees, a little windy but lots of sunshine & nice.

    Anyone suffering from high blood pressure?

    Blood volume x heart rate = cardiac output. Diuretics reduce the blood volume, which therefore reduces the cardiac output. To get the same cardiac output as prior to taking the toxic medication, the heart rate would need to be much higher. That's an example of why I don't go to doctors, and why...

The forecast is for 2.5 inches of rain today, which is quite a bit for this area, followed by 4 more days in a row of plentiful rain, plus 2 of the 4 days after that. I went to a BYOB exercise class at the Senior Center this morning...

    Daylight Savings Time Ends this Sunday - November 2nd

    Sonnet 123, By William Shakespeare No, Time, thou shalt not boast that I do change: Thy pyramids built up with newer might To me are nothing novel, nothing strange; They are but dressings of a former sight. Our dates are brief, and therefore we admire What thou dost foist upon us that is old...

    Relocating from California in 2025

    It's an oxymoron, like "safe drugs", "hypocritical oath", "health science building": (on a structure full of drug dealers) etc.

    What exercise have you done today?

    They are easy to make. You don't need to buy one. I made one like in the photo for ~ $33. Here's the Youtube video <-- with instructions. It was too big for me so I shortened the length to 3 feet, and reduced the width by several inches. Overall it weighs 22.5 pounds, so I added 1.25# weights to...

    Question about a post in the current news and hot topics discussion

    It was probably closed to avoid any politics, and left at the top because it's a current event. It's the first one at the top in the forum he mentioned.

    How do you find out if someone is married?

    You could look it up on a website; for example this one. <-- However, that website like others is only a rough approximation, and is generaly quite inaccurate. The best way to find out is by talking with him.
