Probably no good for his leg/lower back problems. I'm doing Tai Chi
now and it's tough on my knees. Gotta keep getting the weight down.
High school: 182 lbs. Currently 208 lbs, down from 223. (Egad! I'm 5'
11".)

High school 215lbs (1970, 6'1
Boot camp 180 (1971 6'2"
Hospital in Honsu 164lb (1973 6'3")
1975-98 195lbs 6'2" (two back surgeries)
Today, 215 6"2"

I went from 34" waist to 36" waist, to 38" waist, over the last 5 yrs.

My biceps used to be 21". After the back surgeries...they faded away
when I could no longer do heavy stuff.

Though I can still see my belt buckle 99% of the time, Im having to
start to watch my diet. The meds dont help much either..
If I start putting on weight, I can tell because I start getting back
pain.

My hearing is going and my arms are not long enough anymore..sigh...

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner
