    Re: Most Americans are physically lazy

    Walking sucks. I'd ride a segway from room to room in my house if I had a ranch. I guess I could get one of those elevator lift things that haul you up the stairs.

    Take it easy tubby, don't get all upset and start breathing heavy and wheezing like you people do.

    This would work except if you live a long distance from classes then I understand riding...it's a pet peeve of mine when somebody that lives in like Friley rides the bus to like the armory...it's like a 5 minute walk

    I also love walking to classes... wait, I live in Omaha and haven't taken an ISU class in 17 years. Nevertheless, I only drive when where I need to go is more than 4 miles away, or if it is cold. A 3 mile walk is nothing.

    Seriously though I loved the ISU campus for walking too. The only time it sucked was when you had 10 minutes to get all the way across it!

    Re: Most Americans are physically lazy

    It's pretty sad and funny watching people drive around for ten minutes trying to find a parking space at the gym that is close enough to the door so they don't have to walk very far. Dude, you are going to the gym supposedly to get a work out.

    Can you pick me up a pretzel if you pass by Auntie Anne's during your morning mall walk?

    Re: Most Americans are physically lazy

    College campuses (campi?) are about the only place set up to be walking-friendly. We walk (3 kids do too) about everywhere in Ankeny within a mile or so, which gets us to the sports complex and a couple restaurants, but other than that, we live in a driver's world
    Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.

    Actually, if you tell them dmclone sent you they'll know what I want. They keep some bacon toppings in back for me. Make sure to get me a diet coke though.
