Steve. I've been thinking about your weight loss goals, if that's what it is.

68 to go, which brings you to 199. Couldn't you make it 67 to go and settle for an even 200??

I mean, no one wants to weigh 199. 200 sounds so much better.

Don't you agree?

Ya wanna lose weight faster, better and more fun?

Switch to Dave's patented "Wine Diet."

Get home from work, chug-a-lug wine 'till you pass out. Wake up in the morning and go to work. You're too messed up to eat until about lunch time. Eat your brains out. Get home from work and repeat the cycle.

After about 6 months of this revolutionary system, you'll be down to about 180. At that time, your liver falls out, another ten pound loss. Now you're at 170. Awesome!

The only downside? You just ran out of livers!

Bummer, dude. RIP.

At least you died lookin' gooood.

Dave

You definitely don't need a $200 CP or mask. 200 bucks will get you a WV Gold and a good solid mask if you poke around.

I don't like the hockey masks either, but I'm not gonna tell a guy he's stupid for using one either.

I see your point though.

In my post...I posted the low/average end of a CP and the high end...I didn't say you needed the WV Gold...I said that was the high end cost for CP's. There are a bunch of guys around here where I would not be surprised if he was serious...might be a bit of a troll though too.

Are they making the Riddell Power again? That's the last commercially available $200 chest protector that I remember.

Never mind, I just saw the WV Platinum selling at Modell's for $199. What a ripoff place that is. Everything is marked up 25% higher than other places.

Much like the $250 Wilson Titanium mask Honings was trying to sell when nearly all other places had it for $199. I think their latest mailing dropped the price to $209 or something.

Well, I'm nothing if not dignified.

Actually I've been swimming, power walking and lifting weights, so I've been building muscle lately, and not losing as quickly as I was previously. But I'm right on track, and looking pretty good these days.
