Re: The couch thread

That's an astute observation, from what I've read, since it was all before my time. From The Tragic History of the Military Press in Olympic and World Championship Competition, 1928-1972 : Problems, however, plagued the press from the outset.

Add umbilical hernias to the laundry list of injuries typical of @F, from the "Injuries" board: I now have a Umbilical Hernia and am out of commission until the surgery. Learn from my mistake. Damn...if @Fers actually learned from other's mistakes, there wouldn't be an @F anymore. @F survi...

Re: The couch thread

The hypocritical bullshit spewed and endorsed by @FHQ about "virtuosity" and "slop" out of both sides of their mouth was the last straw for me.

There is no virtuosity in @F, or else there wouldn't be slop, and therefore no INTENSITY! Crock of donkey shit.

Total defense contracts to @F = $29,590 Breakdown: 2008 - 1 / $6,610 2007 - 4 / $22,980 Not a positive trend. GWF loves to claim that the "military" is his largest customer. If that site gives a relatively complete list of contracts they got, it's not much as CM says. At $1000 per person f...
