    BTPs for breakfast & a guarantee that football will be deflated before the sun rises.

    Microwaved rice

    I only pick up micro rice if I forget food at work. I get the Uncle Ben's stuff, too, it tastes good. Otherwise I agree with getting a big-ass rice cooker and freezing in batches. Or, when I make chili or something similar, I'll dump the rice in there to cook and freeze it all together. Tastes...

    What's on your bucket list?

    Yeah, I've never been to a country with a good middleground when it comes to firearms. Most places in the US it's stupidly easy to get one, and that alone was enough for me to get a concealed carry permit as soon as I was living there long enough to warrant it. I'd prefer it to be more...

    pick up lines u have heard used on you

    I don't recall anyone ever using lines on me, but I'm not approachable and I'm not shy... so if I'm not talking to someone, I've always been foreveralone. My wife is the only woman who ever aggressively pursued me. As for the lines I've used? I fear putting them on a public forum, the...

    What's on your bucket list?

    Arizona has... interesting... gun laws, lol. Let's just say if you've over eight years old & have an adult willing to sign a waiver saying if you die or shoot someone it's your own fault... you're good to go. You almost literally just have to watch a video before they'll let you handle a firearm.

    Post up what you are eating

    Country-style rosemary & garlic ribs, ready to go in the oven... bad day for grilling, from the Southern boy in me :) Mashed taters and an ear of corn to follow.

    Back operation tomorrow

    ^^ I approve of this. But really, who needs an excuse to not wear pants? It's good you've got someone checking for infection and things... don't wanna be effing around with that possibility when it's on your spine. Been a good while now, stitches should be dissolving pretty good... my recent...

    Who shaves/waxs their legs?

    I took so long to grow into my body hair, my mother was ashamed :(

    What's on your bucket list?

    Mostly why I'm looking for somewhere between Northgate & where work will be, make it more of a 15 minute drive, rather than a half-hour. But I commute a fair bit already, so it doesn't really matter much to me. What gym are you currently at? My geographical knowledge of that area is really...

    What's on your bucket list?

    I'm actually not anywhere there at the moment, I came here looking for a good gym in the area and everyone (pretty much, lol) recommended PTC Brisbane. So I'm looking for a place between Sunnybank and Northgate to set up home. Looking at Newmarket/Windsor area as a good mid-point, but I don't...

    What's on your bucket list?

    Sharks are terrifying. Shark eats siblings in womb! - YouTube I don't know how people swim with those beasts. Even in a cage I'd lose all bladder control. After the amount of shark attacks I've been reading about in Aussie waters, I will never, ever even dip a pinkie toe into the sea.

    Who shaves/waxs their legs?

    Turn it into a sexytime thing. Few things sexier than having your woman straddle you with the wax out, ready to tear some strips off your chest... (no, genuinely, that does turn me on) I'm Italian, so I'm a hairy beast by nature. I have the forearms and legs of a gorilla, and chest hair that's...

    Over under grip?

    Ahh. I thought you were gonna tear me up, lol. I've always had grip strength issues, though... I've broken fingers/hands on multiple occasions, and my job is to type/write for 10 hours a day. I used to pull everything with a mixed grip specifically because my grip strength sucked the big one...

    Tonight, world record freefall from the edge of space

    Either you've confused me now, or I've gone and confused myself :p I thought once he hit the trophosphere his speed would level out until he was intentionally slowing down, in preparation for opening his parachute.

    Over under grip?

    Me? 555lbs at 205lbs, using a mixed grip. About 250kg at about 95/97kg. Not breaking any records over here, my advice is purely anecdotal.

    Tonight, world record freefall from the edge of space

    I only got a chance to watch that at work today... I definitely got nauseous. Lol. I think they said in the post-jump analysis once they got the data back that he had to pull the 'chute slightly earlier than anticipated because of the helmet issues. Maybe I just read that as an unofficial...

    Over under grip?

    Not entirely. I guess I worded it poorly, but my belief is that you should pull with an overhand grip as much as possible and only switch to mixed as you near your max and feel you genuinely can't continue without it. Obviously lifting heavier will ultimately boost your grip strength...

    Back operation tomorrow

    Leaky incision sites are gnarly... how are you coping with that on your back? just regularly changing dressings?

    What's on your bucket list?

    Yeah, it's awesome... no real way to describe it. You can take a tour through the Boneyard... I'm not sure about the others, I never visited those... but it's like walking through a giant's graveyard. It's amazing because when you fly, you don't realize the absolute massive scale of most...

    Tonight, world record freefall from the edge of space

    Women. Seriously. Lol. When he started spinning I almost had a heart attack, I genuinely thought he was gonna die, and half of the world would be watching... can only imagine what was going through his head. What astounds me is the fact he did it with a slight malfunction of his helmet, and...
