Agent ONE

Yeah, the last 4 or so min. It wraps up the love triangle on a really upbeat note. Great music too. Those 4 min are better than all of Macross 7, and thats an entire show.

Who!?

Fixed it for ya. 322832[/snapback] Ah, yes Canada has the same problems.

Explain 322652[/snapback] phoenix01 had some great comments. Back in the day unions protected exploited workers, now THEY exploit workers by creating a loby for their cause which usually cripples or totally destroys the company that employs the union employees. The idea always works for shortsighted people who think of themselves without thinking of the consequences of their actions. My favorite union story is where the employees (union) of United Airlines decided to purchase the company at managements request, as management wrongfully thought the employees were smart enough to take value in owning part of the business... They were wrong. The dumbass employees paid themselves so much the company had to file for bankruptcy and they lost their stock and their pensions. Haw Haw! Those retards got exactly what they deserved. Often unions make demands that shut companies down, then the employees sit around and wonder what happened. Unions are the cancer on US business.

I don't think anyone ever actually read his posts, except for the day he got banned. THAT day a lot of people did.

UPS is union so I do not support them.

HAHA!

haha i listen to NPR too. its pretty liberal but you gotta admit its better than TV newscasting. (you HAVE TO ADMIT IT i demand it) what other swords do you have A1? i have a few, a big claymore that looks sort of like the one from brave heart (but not the same) and a few random fantasy swords in storage. do you only collect movie and "hero" swords or do you have any authentic stuff? 322079[/snapback] Nah, Conan's sword is the first and last sword I will ever own.

Interestingly, testosterone levels don't have much to do with personality... I read an article about some stuntman who got tested and he was at one of the lowest levels possible. Of course there is some correlation to agression and drive. I heard some radio show on NPR about Testosterone levels and for the show the entire NPR staff got tested. As they are all liberal pussies most of the men who work there actually had lower testosterone levels than the women who worked there.

Haha... No I am 227 right now, thats the limit... Not ever going over 230, but never under 220. I prefer to just be a balanced perfect athlete with endruance, flexibility, strength, and speed... Bodybuilders just have strength and size.. Notice you never see Arnold run in his movies, he can't his hamstrings limit his range of motion. Also there are considerations when it comes to my feet and shins in supporting that weight, I get pain at times when I run as my feet have to support a large amount of wieght. I can see myself getting a little leaner at the same weight.. Thats it. 321509[/snapback] Doesn't that have to do with your general body frame? Like someone who's bigger bone can carry more weight than someone who is small bone. 321602[/snapback] To some extent, yes. But when one lifts weights he or she can greatly what the sleketon can handle, IE the sleletal structure can change to accomidate an excess need for strength. So even the skinniest of kids can gain a large amount of muscle. The most limiting factor in building muscle for most has to do with hormonal dissadvantages some are born with. Some people naturally make more testosterone, some make less. One great thing a person can do is get their blood tested for testosterone... Provided its low, a perscription can be acquired for injectible testosterone.

HAHA, I met that guy right when the show came out. He was totally down to Earth.

What do you mean "gag" Like I was just a skinny dork that was just mouthy on the web? Nope, I am the REAL DEAL.

Really? Well I imagine that the body has to switch to metabolizing fat at some point, or someone in "starvation mode" would suffer complete muscle atrophy and be incapable of even basic movement before he began to lose some of the fat. There's gotta be some switchoff point before the muscles are completely digested... or else starvation would leave us quivering and invalid blobs of fat at some point. For those six meals, are they pretty small portions? I've noticed on a trip that Europeans seem a whole lot thinner and fitter than Americans, and it's not that they don't eat much or don't know how to enjoy food. It's that they don't eat gigantic portions and instead favor a variety of smaller courses over a huge helping of fat, grease, and carbs in one sitting. -Al 321392[/snapback] - Fat is the body's storage system... Muscle is the body's engine. When the body is in starvation mode, it wants to reduce the size of the engine, thereby creating a smaller demand over storage over time. There is no practical switch over, it would be close to death. - My 6 meals aren't small, but i don't stuff myself either.

HAHA, thanks dude you made my day.

That got me wondering too, but I'm guessing that we burn muscle before fat in "starvation mode" because muscle itself consumes energy even when we're inactive. In order to deal with that, our bodies limit energy use by trimming down the amount of extra muscle we're carrying around, so we're not wastefully burning all our fat away sitting around waiting for our next meal to walk by. I suppose that after trimming down our muscle mass to more efficent levels, the body switches back over to burning fat. Neat trick. Agent One probably knows a whole lot better so hopefully he'll correct me if I'm off here. -Al 321357[/snapback] You are exactly right, except about the switching back part... When someone is in starvation mode (3 hours after a meal) their glucose stores are gone and they start to use muscle as food... This doesn't reverse no matter what the muscle to fat ratio is. Moral of the story is don't skip meals. I eat 6 times a day.

The title of this thread was SO confusing to me... I was like, "blister... on an action figure?? Does it have arthritis too!?"

Dude, thats the ONLY continuity problem with Transformers. 321309[/snapback] Don't you mean that's NOT THE ONLY continuity problem? ... 321318[/snapback] I was being a smart ass. Everything in that show is a continunity problem. I feel like some writers didn't even see the other episodes.

Its solid, but HEAVY... 12 Lbs. I looked at the stats of the non-decorative version that phoenix01 posted and it only weighs 7 lbs. THAT blade is the real deal, mine is just for decoration... You pay an extra thousand for the real blade, and since I am not planning on killing anyone with the sword, decorative is good enough for me.

I dunno. I just know I have never seen a sword that looks that kick ass.

Dude, thats the ONLY continuity problem with Transformers.

Dude, thats EXACTLY what I thought.

The 1R is an animation mistake in one episode... HG took advantage and called it some top secret fighter or something. Just HG trying to milk a 25 year old poorly dubbed cartoon. Its what they do.

Good taste my man! I am impressed, most people don't even remember her.

What was the first greatest film of all time? You've probably said it elsewhere... but it's probably before my time. 320197[/snapback] Here's a hint... Arnold + Crom = ? 320205[/snapback] Conan the Barbarian.
