I did laundry the other day and didn't notice a piece of paper in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
f00dave's jeans. It disintegrated in the wash far worse than any Kleenex ever would, and when I took the clothes out of the washer, the carpet cast a magic spell: attract lint. So now it looks like the floor at the close of Wall Street or something. I have to vacuum and redo all the laundry. Hoorah for drudgery!
My traps are still sore from thrashing on Wednesday night. Yesterday, I made it through kung fu on about three hours and change of sleep. I felt like I was dreaming kung fu. Maybe I was. I got to work with rings, and practiced the first part of Sil Nim Tao over and over again with weighted arms. Those rings sound like a chorus of bad zillers. Someone ought to make the things rubber-coated. Yeowch. There was much grab-ass to be had in class yesterday, too. We were playing at sticky hands, and I'm just getting to the part where we manipulate each other's balance through moving each other's hips and shoulders. I'm not so good at knocking people off balance, but I'm really good at falling.
Link time.
Schwarzenegger Super Cows: "Belgian Blue Beef are famous for their 'double muscling' due to a gene that suppresses the production of Myostatin. Myostatin is a protein that normally inhibits muscle growth after a certain point of development. Pure Belgian Blue carry two copies of the gene."

Gene mutation makes baby super strong: "Somewhere in Germany is a baby Superman, born in Berlin with bulging arm and leg muscles. Not yet 5, he can hold seven-pound weights with arms extended, something many adults cannot do. He has muscles twice the size of other kids his age and half their body fat."
Repeated sessions of exercise burn more fat than a single, long session: "Taking a break in the middle of your workout may metabolize more fat than exercising without stopping, according to a recent study in Japan. Researchers conducted the first known study to compare these two exercise methods—exercising continually in one long bout versus breaking up the same workout with a rest period. The findings could change the way we approach exercise. Who wouldn’t want to take a breather for that?" Now I don't feel so bad for taking a breather between sets (thanks,f00dave).
This is a world record! Weight loss of 186 kilograms!: Now that's what I call before and after. Wow.
Male Incontinence Clamp: Some things ought not to exist. Given my druthers, I'd be wearing a diaper.

I saw an even more terrible incontinence-
prevention device. It was for men without
prostates, and called something like the
HAL-9000, and was a pressure cuff that
inflated and deflated *inside* the body
around the urethra. It was controlled via
a testicle-sized squeeze-bulb in the
scrotum.
And yes, the consensus is: I'd wear
diapers.
