Scott in previous posts has expressed concern about people smelling bad
after some form of exercise. Frank, it might be true in Texas where Scott is
from. Something about the diet, maybe?

If you can use a trailer, so can I. And my car will STOP, even with a
fridge behind it, even on a downhill.

Why? What is a matter with premature ejaculation?
You are not one of those people who insists
that it should be mutual satisfaction are you?
I'm simply not interested in that.. All I wish to do
is empty my ball-bags..

Didn't I read that the Aussies had actually passed the Americans in
size? Having lived both places, it's not a huge difference one way or
the other. It was shocking going to either place from China though -
nearly everyone looked huge.

Now that's something I hadn't seriously considered. Could stinky sweat
be linked to (for example) eating too much beef, as well as to
unpleasant skin bacteria? There certainly could be more than one
explanation.

Disk brakes on bikes are most excellent at stopping on a sixpence. Perhpas
on t'other side of pond, this could be noted as stopping on a dime?
