One being the mask madness, second being the panixine, third being panic stricken passports and the like …

… Actually, I DO understand the why’s and wherefore’s of those!

Hehe.

Mass control and thus forth …Programming the sheeple would be the name of the book, and it wouldn’t be an especially long one either.

Fear, panic, so called authority and other nonsense is what I’ll distill that as yet unwritten and probably forever unwritten book down to!

But – some strange rules I cannot for the life of me understand. India has a lot of them – so does China!

And as I was thinking of some Advanced Hill Training workouts, as I lay there recuperating after an especially long day, I remembered that one time in 2008 at THAT Job – when I used to travel by subway, and great great workouts in by tearing up the stairs like three at a time, long hair and laptop in tow (and it was a bulky heavy laptop as well – no “slim”ones back then apparently, or the compnay didnt buy ’em or whatever).

And I was thinking of the first day I got the laptop – the long party that ensued – and the even longer recuperation period that ensued at home. Hehe. Like a week or so – it was THAT solid a party!

YES – back in the day, and even now, yours truly knows how to drink it up!

(and pretty much drink anyone at all under the table – if it’s BEER we’re talking! Not so much of a wine and whiskey lover, though I enjoy a few good Scotches on occasion too).

But anyway, I remember in 2008, one day after that when it was after work, we had plenty to drink (and eat) – and then it was time for me to go home via subway or whatever.

Subway, yes.

And the first thing subway security told me “drinks not allowed“.

Before standing by and letting me pass.

Now, here is what I don’t get.

Sure, they dont want drunks and louts and “eve” teasers or what not all over their Metro in India … or anywhere, I’d think.

But a few drinks, guys that are obviously not trouble – I mean, is that not one reason the subway is THERE so guys dont need to DRIVE?

Especially after a few drinks?

Beats the point of having it in the first place!

Then I remember coming back from a vacation once in 2016 (it was a short trip back home from China, so I decided to throw in a mini holiday in India too) – and I had like a half a bot of something in the luggage.

Being the train didn’t deposit us anywhere near any reliable public transport, we took the subway back home.

And why security would choose to take a look at a guy and his wife and a three year old (well, 4) perched on top of Daddy’s shoulders and think that half a bot of something deep, deep inside the luggage would be an issue is beyond me.

Utterly beyond me.

Much like in 2005 when a Chinese flight attendant wouldn’t allow a bot of something in my Dads carry on luggage on the plane (they had come for a short visit).

“No allow” she kept saying. 

I’m not sure what she would have said if it was bought at duty free!

But these strange rules, I cannot quite understand why they’re there, who put them there and so forth.

But anyway, it just struck me. So I thought I’d write about it.

And perhaps also because I’m contemplating a few cold ones soon.

Been a rough (well, annoying, I should say) 1.5 last days – sure hope that don’t continue to the extent it has the last 1.5 or so days…

And workouts wise, of course, thats the best place to pimp Advanced Hill Training – or Eat more – Weigh LESS! … depending on how you look at it.

Both are the same book.

I just changed the name of the latter around to the former because thats how it was originally and the latter was attracting too many “do it easy” “do it now” wankers and dope heads (and possibly BRICKHEADS AND BONEHEADS too!) …

And if you’re interested in truly living it up – and losing the pounds as well ,you’ll want to check that book out.

Be sure too, to check out Animal Kingdom Workouts – the next in that series!

I’m out – and I’ll ebe back soon!

Best,

PS – I’ll never forget the one night we were drinking in a park or something in Southern Mississippi. Three of us I believe, and a copper pulled out, lights roaring , all of a sudden out of the blue, and demanded we get out of the truck with our hands up.

We did that – all three of us.

He took a cursory look inside the cab of the truck, tossed the open beer away – and told us to beat it (politely).

Probably had crime reports or something from that area…

But I’ll never forget the look on the face of friend #3 – he stood there rooted to the spot like a deer in headlights x 10, hands frozen in a most uncomfortable “hands up ” position (the two of us just had hands up where the cops could see ’em and we put ’em down right then) ….

…. and even when the cop was about to go?

HIs hands were up!

“Sir, you can put your hands down now” barked the copper. 

They remained up – till he left.

I cannot remember laughing louder in a while…

Some things – priceless!

As of course is the Collector’s Edition of Fast and Furious Fitness, truly the last copy remaining, once gone, it’s gone, so get your paws on this now my friend, because EVERY SERIOUS strength enthusiast MUST HAVE this book!

Truly a golden classic, one of the ages.

Autographs free – just ask!

Ah, and you know that already I know!

BAck soon, hehe.
