Man buys farm, finds vintage cars

“ok, so imagine you live in portugal and your moving house. you find a lovely farm house set in a decent plot of land. the place has been empty for 15 years! whilst exploring your new property you find a large barn in the trees. the door is padlocked shut and its all rusted solid. so you grind the padlock open…“

Weigh in, Week 4
Permalink | by John in Health-Medical
Shit.
Well, this was bound to happen. I was tempted to lead off by saying my friends and family are trying to kill me, but I’m much more about personal responsibility than that. I have, however, come to the conclusion that I can’t eat with anyone else because I appear to have no self-discipline when they’re around. I also need to establish a better routine on the weekends, or extend my solid weekday routine to seven days a week.
Disclaimer: On Friday I was 343.7 lbs.
- last week: 346.9
- current weight: 347.8
- net change: +0.9
- starting weight ‘07: 348.8
- goal weight for ‘07: 300
- goal rate of loss: 1 lb./week
- scheduled weight for week 4: 345
Okay, not a complete disaster, but disappointing nonetheless because of the progress I made during the week. I don’t see it as a .9 weekly gain, I see it as a 4.1 weekend gain. Call me a pessimist.

You call that fat? I would kill to weigh under 200 pounds. Hell, I’d kill to be able to walk a couple miles. I haven’t weighed less than 200 in more than two decades. Don’t pat yourselves too hard on the back for losing a few pounds, you might break your arm.

Generation 5 Golf R32 (super GTI)
“3.2L VR6, 250-hp, 6-speed automatic with DSG® with paddle shifters. There’s not much the R32 can’t do when it comes to performance. Thanks to its more powerful 250-hp engine mated to its first-ever AWD transmission. As you know, the R in R32 stands for racing and the 32 refers to its high performance 3.2 liter powerplant. Maybe that’s why it’s been dubbed “the race car for everyday driving.” And with only 5,000 landing on US pavement, your chances of getting your lead foot on one will be, well, limited.”
I think the last generation R32 cost mid-30’s. I’m pretty sure they’ll be over 40k out-the-door. I have no choice but to win the lottery.
