Or else put on our mortarboards and gowns to get honorary PhDs (Puns [in] High Definition).Such a shameless pun run. Youse guys should be mortarfied.
odd words in advertising
I thought PhD stood for piled higher and deeper. How tall are you?.... I didn't know they could stack it That high!

When I go for a calk, I get dry and crumbly. When I do my set-ups, I'm not as lumber as I would like to be. On the other hand, when I contemplate the here rafter, I realize that I am joist fine.
Great, in fact!
Those two boards are history. Now I am a brown belt, recommended, testing for brown belt, decided later this month, hopefully.

Go Perry! Well constructed. And good luck on that belt, after which you can tell us all what can Brown do for you...When I go for a calk, I get dry and crumbly.

There used to be a karate school in the DC area run by a man called Joon Rhee. His TV ad trademark was "Noboby bothers me!" Word is that one night someone bothered him with a pistol and relieved him of his wallet. The next set of commercials had a little kid in the white robe saying "Nobody bothers me!"
Which reminds me of the old joke about the guy who was cut off by a truck and followed the trucker to his next stop. He jumped out of his car, assumed a defensive posture, and shouted "Karate: Korea!" The trucker smacked him upside the head with a heavy metal object and shouted "Crowbar: Sears and Roebuck!"

I'm also reminded of the old James Bond spoofs by Sol Weinstein, the Israel Bond series. In the book Loxfinger, Lazarus Loxfinger's henchman, Macaroon (based on the character Odd-Job in Goldfinger) intimidates people by pulling out a 4x4 and breaking it in half with a karate chop. At the end of the book, when Bond has to fight him, all he does is pull out a 4x4 and chop it in half--he doesn't know HOW to fight! Bond easily finishes him off.
And does Perry remember the old Bill Cosby routine about breaking boards with karate? The student was told "You have to think THROUGH the board" but the board was thinking "Oh no you don't!"

I'm afraid that a hard sell could leave one feeling like they came from the school of (portable) hard (drive) knocks, which is never good.Could be a hard sell...
Huny- worried by every noise that comes out of my tower and hoping that it's solid enough to last.

Not only is Joon Rheestill around, but he is tougher than ever. At 74 he can still do 100 push ups in one minute. He is now a 10th degree black belt. Have a look at him here.There used to be a karate school in the DC area run by a man called Joon Rhee. His TV ad trademark was "Noboby bothers me!"

Good to hear! I see he still has locations in Maryland and Virginia.
Another early fitness icon, Jack LaLanne, is still going strong at age 92!
I remember watching him on TV as a kid. I'll never forget watching him do one-handed pushups faster than most people can do them two-handed.
Unfortunately, his influence didn't stick with me.1956 (age 42): Jack set a world record of 1,033 pushups in 23 minutes on You Asked for It, a television program with Art Baker.
1959 (age 45): Jack did 1,000 pushups and 1,000 chin-ups in 1 hour, 22 minutes.

Perhaps you could take inspiration from a series of panels in James O'Barr's The Crow. Eric is doing one-handed pullups (counting sixty- / three), one-handed pushups (sixty- / four), and situps (sixty- / five).Another early fitness icon, Jack LaLanne, is still going strong at age 92! ...

You can appreciate how a judicious application of this technique would do wonders for your workout regimen.
