  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's on your mind?

I'm listening to "Already There" by Casting Crowns, so the lyrics are what I'm thinking about. I also should get more pictures of my dogs. I don't have enough.

As I'm typing this, the song changed to "God Is On The Move" by 7eventh Time Down.

I'm on Christian Cotemporary on Pandora. Naturally, the songs are Christian in nature.

Welcome to CF! Casting Crowns have some good music :) Hope you find great fellowship here!
By the way, I've just discovered why you DON'T declare your date of birth on your UCP.

Oh boy...

:ebil: Happy birthday!

Rainy but a lovely day. The trees in my back yard are finally starting to change color. I hope everyone has a great day. :)

Thanks everybody! It dawned on me today that I'm now officially closer to 30 than I am 20. Which, I guess makes mathematical sense...

Plenty of room for more self improvement this year. 25 was good, but this year can be better. For a start I really need to become a regular face at a church again and finally get my book out there.

You looked better before. Now you just look like a cross between a 1990's Chris Jericho and Cher after a cycle of Dianabol.

Funnily enough, I've just remembered, there's a video of me on YouTube somewhere doing a 500lb-ish deadlift in some run down London gym with a group of pals. I'd post it, but it was back in the days when I'd roar a plethora of swear words and various vulgarities to amp myself up before a big lift, so yeah, I'd better not...

Plus, I don't think I'd be able to find it. It's quite an oldie.

Yes, I miss the old days of working out over the now days......

Now it feels like a workout just getting myself ready to workout.

That's not even to mention what the past 15 years turned to jello. (Short a few moments of trying to quit and working out, but ultimately returning to smoking and skipping the workout.)

I'd get into playing a sport then in that case. Something that's going to get you all fired up and competitive. The gym isn't for everybody.

I could only workout on my own or with my powerlifting club. I found other people in the gym annoying and distracting, which is why I'd be down there at midnight on a Saturday with the heavy metal blaring out of the speakers. I just couldn't get into the zone otherwise. I find everything twice as hard when there's people about. I'm too easily distracted. (I think I have ADD actually, never been diagnosed though.)

I was a bit of a meathead to be fair. Making noise, throwing big weights around and chomping arrogantly on gum were my favourite past times as a teenager. I also liked to wear T-shirts bought from Mothercare...

I'm much too muted and reserved these days. I feel less need to be noticed.

Oh geez, the moment I read this post I immediately thought of a parody of that somewhat well-known line in the film Titanic that happens just before the drawing scene, that would fit Toro's case:

"I want you to draw me wearing this cowbell ... and nothing but this cowbell."

No, its being out of shape. I have always loved the gym (even though I only use a home gym) but my body is old and out of shape.Its the lack of energy, not the lack of drive or desire

I used to tear through workouts and still had energy after a short rest.

Now, I workout and barely make it through that without taking an old people nap.

I have my gym at home. I have a squat/curl/pullup station. Stationary bike. Heavy bag. Of course dumbbells, bench etc...

I love this post. You have no idea how much I love Samson.
LET ME DIE WITH THE PHILISTINES. Champ. Saint.

However I always got confused, because in the vow of the Nazarite, if you're around dead people you must shave your head. And Samson demolished thousands. :scratch: Perhaps there was an exception especially for Samson, considering he was a Nazarite from birth - it was special.
