It was a great show.  First one I've ever listened to in real time.  I was going to call, but I chickened out (it wasn't me who got GOMP'ed but a Rutgers student who shares my last name - I haven't set foot in the court Tavern since 1995 or so). 

I meant first name.  (!)
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Damnation! My son had the computer all night to write a paper, and when I gave it up to him early in the proceedings Tom was on a different topic. I was already for "things you should know about but don't" and he threw some "take it or leave it" thing at me. A couple more bonehead moves like that, and I will be another wounded ex-supercaller lying on the side of the road. I can't wait to waste the entire workday shirking my responsibilities and listening to the archives, though.

I wanted to take roller boogie and leave strip cardio -- especially the advanced pole dancing class, "Turning Tricks." NOT COOL.

I get the feeling that ONLY in Miami do people even have this particular choice.
Am I wrong?
Now write me a receipt so I can tip on outta here...

Yes! You are.

Crunch Gym has stiletto workouts (great for the calves), a class with a Dominatrix trainer that will whip you into shape, pole dancing, and advanced strip cardio (turning tricks). They also have "Abs'solutely Hysterical," an ab-sculpting class taught by a comedian, dodgeball, spinning classes where you "ride" the movies, and all sorts of crap like that. In New York, the Pontani Sisters teach Go Go Robics. I have their workout DVDs -- lots of fun, and a good, sweaty workout. I do the workout in my I. Miller go go boots.

Crunch is in Miami, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and a couple other places I think.

Actually, I was going to say, "that depends on who's in the class" but then I remembered the Internet taught me that there is nothing so strange, and no one so ugly, that SOMEONE doesn't want to see it/them.  So I retract my thought.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I wish you hadn't been, TL.  It would comfort me to know all this was limited to place.

Lately, I've been annoyed by all people who exercise just for the sake of exercise.  I know this is unreasonable, but I've been seeing too many smug turisti jogging past my window this summer.  The thought of this same crew gyrating and contorting self-consciously to stripper music makes me want to kill myself.

I believe that Carmen Electra has some sort of stripping workout video. Or the Pussycat Dolls.

Sarah, what do you mean by people who exercise just for the sake of exercise? I don't think most people exercise because that love it, but they think they should.

hey I'm all for being healthy and stuff, but this whole shift away from substance and towards surface really burns me up. At least I know this: in 50 years, all those gym rats bodies are gonna be lumpy, broken sacks of crap, just like everyone else's. There's this gym in NYC that was started by this douche David Barton, who used to have the slogan "Look Better Naked", which was totally annoying.

So if I spend 15 hours a week in the gym, I too can become a tasty treat to succubi?

Okay, let me see if I can explain what I mean here.  I'm talking about people who never do a lick of manual labor, never break a sweat except by choice (exaggeration, I know, but keep in mind this is all heat-of-the-moment stuff fueled by my hatred of the summertime invaders), blessed with enough leisure and wealth that they can spend a significant amount of time and money shedding fat and building muscle just so they look good--all, of course, to the accompaniment of whatever is piping into their ears from the iPods carefully clipped to their waistbands--but who will drive two blocks to go to a store rather than using their feet to propel them, who will hire locals--for pittances--to do all the heavier work maintaining their properties (except of course for fun stuff like chainsawing trees and such), who whine because to eat healthily around here they actually have to cook their own food rather than popping over to some restaurant or takeout joint that will meet all their myriad dietary requirements, who would rather use a gym to stay trim than do even a speck of the rougher stuff of daily life that burns calories just as effectively and more constructively.

Again, I know I'm being unfair.  My excuse is that it's late August, and it's time for Lubec to belong to the Lubeckers again.

I've said this before: John Basedow's face does not match his body. It's unsettling.
