You are getting respect. I'll grant you that it's hard to spot, though.

This is not a coddling sort of place. We all have our obstacles. We do

Warm fuzzy feeling? Is that a goal? I'm still looking for your goals.

That's where you hire a personal trainer. It's expensive but helpful.

Are you being serious?

EVERY bone in your back? Again, you lie. How many bones are there? You
got 'em all? Was that Boyer Coe's fault, too?

And you didn't answer my question about blindness? Figuratively or
literally?

Oh, and what is your goal? Can't believe I'm parroting what'sherface,
but that'd help a smidge.

And here's my original response with what I suspect you consider inane
removed. You lie about your back and probably your eyesight, so I'll
assume you also lied about not opening my posts.

Uh-oh! Now you've done it. Being a newbie, if you said nice things
about CJ, he would have sucked your ass until your whole descending
colon prolapsed. But you've made him angry.

Quoted message said:

In this newsgroup, your blindness will be taken into consideration
when it's relevant, but you should never expect it be a source of
sympathy. Yet I'm curious ... what means do you use to read this
newgroup?

Quoted message said:

I do
thank Pete and Jason for their candor and suggestions. Yes, I mix and
match my routines, and yes, I've had some serious setbacks, which have
rendered me unable to workout, for long periods of time. Perhaps, I'd be in
much better shape, had there been no interruptions. Still, I think, having
an ongoing workout partner, who knows his stuff, would benefit me most. I
haven't put much store in all the supplements out there, and maybe I've
deluded myself.

Whey protein and creatine, when taken in the right amounts and at the
right time, can provide you with some edge. Ephedrine and caffeine
can help keep your body fat low and provide some stimulation for
workouts. Green tea is also effective in that regard. Fish oil can
help reduce inflammation, and glucosamine can help restore damaged
connective tissue.

Most of the other stuff is [censored].

What type of bench did that?

I believe that with Outlook Express you can create "rules." I never tried

comes trough because someome else reponded, AND that person has its name at
the bottom of the post, and the responder did NOT remove the name (i always
do...) i believe its possible to filter out just about anything. I will
defenitely try that tommorow, and see if that feature works.

Yeah, i always romove the [censored], or lines that were written 4-10 posts ago. I
hate those messy posts.
It will never cease to amaze that some people reply by a post by just saying
"yeah, i agree", at the bottom, and leave the other 500 lines above that
unsnipped. I just dont get that, and i hate it.

I think my Troll Filter FAQ describes the limitations on Outlook
Express. I don't like that newsreader; it's too easy to suck in
malicious code. I use Forté Agent. And I won't purchase the newest
version of Agent until they improve their killfilters.

Seriously, I'd be very interested to learn more about the software

actually blind. I'm not sold on that, but I'm not necessarily calling
him a liar. Otoh, he DID say that *every* bone in his back was broken
in that alleged benching accident, so...

I believe his greatest ailment just might be exaggeration.
