Wish I was 20! No such luck! Drunk on the computer sounds ok too-could go with a beer! Thought i'd inflict some "culture" on you guys!! lol. Actually though, I never realised this was an English course. Though it was an athletic message board. I've had a million posts already (what's the record) so I can't be stuffed checking the grammar-I think "fair dinkum mate's" come up rarely, only in reply to your posts. not after every sentence every post-while you're correcting you best get that right.
Currently my best senior athlete ranks no.4 in the country, no. 6 in the Commonwealth (US don't compete there). Closing on Olympic quali but too late for our country now anyway. Broke his arm before our trials so that put him out. Way it goes, just have to move on and work towards worlds next year. Had numerous junior champs and medallists over time but over focusing more on senior athletes now. Doesn't feel so restricting in regards to training.
>"You have to accept that they did this NOT because it was the best way, but because it was the EASIEST way"
Actually i'll accept it was probably the SMARTEST way- not the easiest way. The US international records demonstrates the success of the system.
I try to base my posts on both years of exerience and my qualifications as an "Exercise Physiologist"
(http://jap.physiology.org/cgi/content/abstract/00964.2003v1) and do enjoy the debates. This particular topic was a passion, something I've seen thru my experience and backgroung numerous times.
>We Americans have no idea what it means and think it is ridiculous and we retort less aggressively because we feel like we are making fun of a retarded person. At least I do.
One thing i don't do in my posts at least is try not to lower myself and make it personal. But one thing for sure, no matter what i'll always be smarter than you!!!! Of course nothing personal! You're forgiven!
No more posts-I'm all posted out!! I think my point's been made (and made, and made, and made ....). "youngwithdesire", who originally initiated this thread, probably didn't know what he was geting himself in for! lol
Have a good day.
