Re: Ask a bored philosopher-in-training anything.

After owning 25 guitars, why do I feel I need to change every so often? Is it a hopes of findign the ultimate guitar, a sad cry hoping that a change of gear will improvie my playing. Or compensation for small genitalia [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I've heard that pointy guitars do WONDERs for girth.





Seriously though, many psychologist relate a case of wanderlust with fear of failure. Drawing on that parallel, I would say it has something to do with wanting the ultimate guitar and fear of there being a significantly better guitar out there that you just havn't played yet.

What do you like? Do you want an easy or hard time? Are you more practical or more theoretical?

Which came first,the chicken or the egg?And how does it affect the price of peanut butter?

[/ QUOTE ]
Evolutionally speaking, the egg came first, as it was probably a mutation in the DNA of the predecessor of the chicken which created the modern day chicken which we are familiar with.

Fortunately, neither chicken nor eggs have any impact on the price of natural peanut butter, since well, peanuts do not come from chickens.

Well,it was that or the infamous Tootsie Pop question,but...

Most food processing plants,the machinery(gear reducers,conveyors,and such) are lubricated with peanut oil to prevent contamination from leakage.

I work my abs with sit ups on that incline machine, as well as with weight resistance, yet I can not get a full 6pack.

I have a very well-defined 4 pack and can not get the bottom 2 to come in.

Weight is not the issue, I am 5'7'' and weigh 121 lbs (7% body fat)

what am I doing wrong here?

[/ QUOTE ]

Abs are made in the kitchen as they say. I personally wouldn't bother with the machines. 5 sets of 25 crunches a day, alternating between reverse and regular cruches. Mon-Sat. Exactly what Arnold Schwatzawhatever used to do when he was a pro BB.

Also, I know you said diet isn't an issue, but I know real skinny guys who keep fat on their belly. Do you drink beer? Soda? If you do, stop. (Assuming you realy want them to shine)

But IMO at 5'7" and 121 pounds, you should probably worry more about how to put on some weight.

[/ QUOTE ]

I do drink beer, but I train hard enough that it's not an issue.

at 7% body fat I am very lean, but I hold very little of the fat in my chest or abs. Most of my fat tends to stay in my thighs (which is still very little)

What do you mean by train hard? Can you give me an example of your routine? If it is really killing you, I'd honestly say that you should try and just cut beer for a month and see what happens. Beer does a lot of shit to your body aside from just getting you drunk.

Well, my school offers studio musician majors and the like. You could try that. Easy and practical? If you don't want a bullshit major, I'd say go Business. If you want a degree that some might find to be *bs*, but will get you that coveted degree with not a whole lot of work, go with psycology/sociology. Psyc / Soc classes are really easy and pretty damn interesting IMO, only problem is because it is so easy, they attract alot of idiots.

Also, I have a buddy who is a geography major. It seems easy and he has some cool career ops lined up.

I think you're assuming I drink a lot.

I go out for beers maybe every other week, and I'll have 3 or so.

I'll drink a beer at home maybe once a week.

as far as training hard, I run roughly 60 miles a week.

I also use the eliptical and lift weights (low weight, high rep)

Re: Ask a bored philosopher-in-training anything.

Props to you for working so hard. I know little about you so yeah, that probably is my assumption. Other than what I've already suggested with getting off the machine and onto the floor. Only thing else I can say is cals expended > cals in. If you are at seven and they arn't showing all you can do is eat cleaner and work harder.

Got a photo of yourself?
