re: How many people have gotten 15 years out of a car/truck?
Posted by TU Rob on 5/8/24 at 11:12 am
We've had several cars in the family last that long. Usually starts out with an older person driving it for 5 years or so and passing it down to a younger person. I had a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 that I got new when I was in college, and drove it for over 4 years. When I got out of grad school, my dad...

re: First Video Boards in Sporting Venues
Posted by TU Rob on 5/5/24 at 9:46 pm
We’ve become so accustomed to them that it feels out of place now when you’re at a stadium without one. We were at the state track meet this weekend in Alabama and the little stadium they hold it in doesn’t have a video board. They don’t usually show live videos or replays of track, but the heat and...
re: Outdoor TV Recs
Posted by TU Rob on 5/1/24 at 10:51 am
I'm on my second old TV from inside being used as my covered deck TV. Bought a 50 inch to hang on the living room wall and moved a decade old 46 inch out there, back in 2020. It lasted until last fall. The screen was still fine, but no sound was working. I tried different inputs, from a Firestic...
re: Pinched nerve in my upper back

[quote]Can anyone point me to info on what I can do? Everything I find is all about back injury. Basically, I know I can’t deadlift or squat, but is there a variation I can do? Like belt squats, leg press, lunges, glute bridge, DB RDLs?

Figure that out during PT. You will want to addre...

re: The expanded 12-team College Football Playoff is here — and it already has problems.
Posted by TU Rob on 4/29/24 at 9:30 am
I mean, rematches in the championship game (LSU vs Bama) is what started this whole playoff to begin with. Then we ended up with rematches in title games (UGA vs Bama). Sometimes it is just going to happen. With conferences going to 16 teams and still having title games, your top 2 in the confere...

re: Why do so many people refer to SUVs as "trucks?"
Posted by TU Rob on 4/26/24 at 8:53 pm
My wife gets highly annoyed when I call any of ours a truck. But I’m not saying SUV. And it isn’t a car either. It’s built on a car frame but to me a car is a coupe or sedan. Basically if it is taller and you don’t have to lean down to get into it I call it a truck. Especially since I know it annoys...

[quote]You can do crunches etc to target specific core muscles but in doing so, you naturally create an inbalance. You might get bigger core muscles where they are more appealing, but youll put yourself at risk for injury.[/quote]
Yeah the old days of situps and crunches are pretty much gone with...
re: Pinched nerve in my upper back
Posted by TU Rob on 4/25/24 at 8:12 pm
[quote]Very glad you got it mostly worked out, although I'm always reluctant to give PTs too much credit. A lot of time passed in your situation while you were in PT and it always leaves me wondering if they don't get a lot of credit just for your body remediating the issue itself over longer period...
re: Utahns reunited with pet cat they accidentally shipped with Amazon return
Posted by TU Rob on 4/25/24 at 8:06 pm
[quote]After probably being the one who thought up this plan and put the cat in the box, the husband was like "oohh.. great... the cat's back"[/quote]
My first thought as well. Old dude was tired of the cat and his wife told him to take the boots to ship back, found the cat in the box and quickly...

[quote]Sounds like a bulging cervical disc. Get used to thinking about the concept of "referred pain" - whereby the actual point of injury is not necessarily where it hurts/numbs.[/quote]
Exactly what I experienced about 4 years ago. I felt it in my left hand usually, and sometimes it would trave...
re: I still prefer instant grits
Posted by TU Rob on 4/23/24 at 9:14 am
They have a place, but it is usually on a kids plate. It doesn't take that long to cook proper grits, if you have about 15-20 minutes. Every Saturday morning I make cheese grits and eggs. My youngest is 5 and always eats them with me. The others are about 50/50 if they want either, but he always...

[quote]I'm around 15-20% right now and I can feel it. I'm watching my diet pretty close and on TRT so I'm wondering how much of it is losing muscle mass and how much is due to only eating about 200g of carbs/day. Hardly getting a pump is not fun.[/quote]
I'm carrying a little extra right now. Ab...
re: Who would win a fight with yourself?
Posted by TU Rob on 4/18/24 at 6:22 pm
I’ve got 25 lbs on younger me and am in pretty good shape. Lift regularly and have a ton of stamina. I actually like working out. Teenage me was scrawny and hated offseason workouts. Dad strength and old man strength would win out. Teenage me could run for days though and was speedy so he might tuck...
