I've wondered about that last one too - has he ever changed it?

Running is far better for cardiovascular stimulation, which is generally better for your body. Muscle mass alone doesn't make you healthy.

It's essentially like an alternate reality version of baseball. The rules are very different, but it generally boils down to the same concept. 5 day matches are dumb, but 1 day matches can be enjoyable.

It's quite the other way around. And the game is most certainly not like any version of your rounders (which is a girl's game anyway).
Cricket is zen, and enlightenment can only be gained through the full 5 day test experience. One must enjoy the ebb and flow, the detail and the grand picture. One must drink beer and Pimm's. (Not, obviously, at the same time unless one wishes to be granted membership of the Barmy Army).
Strike, if you seek and understand cricket, all other questions will be answered.

It is not so much the duration of a 5 day that bothers me, it is the very concept of it ending in a draw. Any game that lasts that long should have a victor.

Because they'd prefer to be able to run far than be some porky fatso who can lift things. Let's face it, in everyday life, you rarely have to lift anything that's heavy anyway.
Ideally, people would do both. But of the two, I know which one I'd pick.

Its a joke. Im not here to argue merit that would take entirely to long as you seem to be pretty convinced in your opinion.

Its been years since I've played a TW game longer than a weak after release. Every time they put out another crappy game I keep thinking I'll never buy another one, but the beauty that was the Shogy/MTW engine keeps my hope alive... and my wallet open.

I'm sure this is a fine thread, but it's written in Spammish, a language I don't comprehend. So we'll send this to the Kingdom of Peace and Love, for them to pose or dispose.
Lemur, HoskawaTito! Incoming!

Re: Things I Don't Understand and Probably Never Will
I believe the actual answer to all these is this:
It is this way, because you are Texan. If you question the order of thing too much, that may be taken away from you.

You know what I don't understand?
Why Motorhead isn't a Space Metal band.
Seriously, that would kick so much cosmic :daisy:.

Re: Things I Don't Understand and Probably Never Will
I think some sort of cardio (running, bike or whatnot) and weights is best. Doing one or the other seems to be a bad idea. Especially when wood need's a choppin'!
Oh and I'm surprised you didn't add "Women" but maybe that's too obvious.

What , you've never heard of Hawkwind?
Yes, that is Lemmy.

Re: Things I Don't Understand and Probably Never Will
I don't understand why I waited until THREE A.M THE DAY IT WAS DUE to write this paper.
I try not to procrastinate, yet here I am. At least Rythmic understands me :beam:

Yeah, I know Hawkwind. They're the reason I wish Motorhead was spacerock too. Them, and these guys too.

One more for that list: How the hell does the dashboard in your car always get sticky? I mean really...

Re : Things I Don't Understand and Probably Never Will
Socks. I don't understand how to manage socks.
My washing machine insists on eating one, and only one, sock every time I do the laundry. This I can live with, I considering it a ritual sacrifice to Hare Zogba, God of abandoned widows, of lefthanded goatmilk skimmers, and of washing machines.
The real problems are trying to maintain matching pairs.
If I buy my socks all as variations on the theme 'black', then I can never find any matching pairs out of the laundry pile. They all look too similar. This similiarity instantly changes into laughable dissimilarity exactly at the moment after I left home in a hurry and stare down at my feet in the metro on my way to work or a date.
If I buy socks with little prints on them then I can find matching pairs. But I'll look like an imbecile when wearing them.
If I simply buy thirty pairs of exactly the same socks, as I once did, my washing machine still manages to make 'm all come out differently, which returns me to dilemma 1 above.

Argyle is the way to go. Then if they don't match, you can pick tonal themes, it doesn't mater so much because they have similar patterns and it's then a fashion statement.

Nah, I'm sure Strike had some other motive for beating you up. Or maybe he was just drunk.

Girls during their time of the month. Geez, it's incomprehensible. In cases like this, discretion is the better part of valour, I suppose. :clown:

Modern music
Modern fashion
Modern architecture
Workaholism
Female Insecurities
Male Insecurities
Why everything enjoyable in life is either illegal, immoral or unhealthy
Why people think the Italians make good suits
The working classes
The middle classes
The upper classes
The demise of style, panache, wit and elegance in favour of the tyranny of the vulgaroisie
Why more people don't smoke pipes.
Why I can't think of anything more to say.
