Welcome! Love that honeymoon idea! Cheers!

Welcome aboard Al_Ann_momma! Glad you could make it. Beer is good and good beer is great! Cheers!!

LOL... I don't remember seeing a candle.

West Michigan is the best Michigan! ;-)

Born, raised, and most likely dying in Grand Haven. Great place to raise kids and drink beer. ;-)

I don't really think any food is necessarily unhealthy, but one of the foods that I have a really hard time just having one serving of is Pizza. I can't eat just one slice. It's nearly impossible for me. :-(

No, not for sure... Is the riddle, "Who or what am I?"

LOL... Very good rotts1! This one is actually a pun rather than a riddle, but I usually wait until people have laid out some long and drawn out sentences before answering with... "Defeat go over defense before detail." ;-)

Can you use the words... defense, detail, and defeat in one sentence?

Frog jump answer: Effectively 2' per jump except for the last which would get all 3' so... 7 jumps.

My favorite for a while now is Songza. It doesn't use computer generated play lists like Pandora and many others, but instead uses curated playlists by real people. The Concierge service of it is one of the coolest features and is so popular several other services have adopted the format. Check it out, and use it for a…

Nope... My "diet" is only affected by my lazy ways and bad habits. I try to counter that with a strong desire to change through science and math. More calories out than in. That's it. Weather there's a god that made that reality so, or it's biology influenced by survival needs over much time through Evolution is…

^^^ what grimendale said ^^^ and once you are sure you are motivated to keep with it. Get on ebay or craisglist and buy a power cage and some weights. (will save you oodles of gym membership money)

LOL... That's funny and a great idea. Might have to steal this idea one of these days. Cheers!!

I'll be looking for something new to try, but I will probably start off with the "State Beer" (IMHO) for Michigan. Bell's Two Hearted Ale Happy IPA Day everyone! Cheers!!

LOL... Just saw this post. The short answer is... less food on the moor beer days and Lots and lots of walking, running, and bike riding. (and lifting heavy) There are a lot you don't see on Untappd too. After a few and especially when drinking several of the same I tend to forget to check into them. Also... It's Coast…

I'm definitely older. The hair is receding at record levels, and if you go by the picture I'd say we are pretty close in size. It's all good though. Hopefully we both will continue to improve our fitness while enjoying the brew. ;-) P.S... In my head... I'm still 20 something, unfortunately my body is saying screw you old…

Nope. Don't mind at all. It was great to meet you in person, and glad you had fun. It would be fun to meet more people from this Group and MFP Friend Lists. Maybe one day we can find a beer festival in a "relatively" centralized location, for a majority in group (Maybe Asheville NC?) and see how many we can get to show up.…

It just boggles my mind at all the uneducated, unfounded, untrue statements. With the exception of a personal viewpoint on weather feet are ugly or not... Most of these nasty, safety, gross, dangerous, etc... statements being made are just societal stereotypes that have been pounded into our brains over time. Bare feet…

Cheers deadwax! Thanks for joining and welcome!

I'm no expert and only a beginner runner, but doing this after each run and just whenever I think to has pretty much eliminated any shin pain for me: http://youtu.be/pj2r4VtyRD4 I'm a bit different in the shoe department though. I run barefoot or minimalist so I know right away if I'm heel striking. All shoes do (IMHO) is…

Hey wwillnow, I use both, and actually quite a few people do, but they aren't real active in the forums. At either place. There's a group here (which I see you have already joined) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/8727-endomondo And an Endomondo group also here: http://www.endomondo.com/teams/2349993 I also added…

Just added you wwillnow. I'm over in West Michigan area (Grand Haven) Cheers!

Welcome ganbaranba! Glad you could make it. Cheers!!

Welcome webdevsoup! Small world! I am a fellow West Michigan lover of craft beer. (I'm in Grand Haven) I have a lifetime mug club membership at Odd Side Ales and you can find me in there frequently. I love our beer and beer community in Michigan and especially in West Michigan, and I'm looking forward to visiting your…

What Ainar said... Plus, I know for me, in the past, when I would have a couple days of not doing well they would snowball into three, four, and more days and before I know it I'm back to my old ways and all the good is forgotten about. The trick I have learned is to slap myself out of it before it becomes three days. I…

Eat less, move more, pick up heavy stuff, and put it back down.

Welcome erikwollschla! Glad you could make it. Belly up to the bar and enjoy. ;-) Cheers!

You will get a hundred different answers to this as the only thing atheists have in common is their lack of belief in deities. My personal belief is that yes there has to be other life out there, but I also highly doubt our little rock has ever been visited by highly intelligent space faring entities. (No evidence to…
