One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid. Gunner Asch

No, not... Iggy lost 50lb; methodically.

I and Larry were both making jokes.

Comrade Iggy is looking pretty good based on pictures of him from several years ago.

I know I was never in such good shape as a few years ago when I hand-scraped the bed of my 15" Sheldon lathe. Since it was a super-hardened bed, I had to grind it with a die grinder and polishing wheels. That took about 20 months. Then, I put Moglice on the carriage and had to hand scrape that in. This required flipping the carriage casting over about 300 times, it weighed over 100 Lbs.

Climbing all over a machine can be good exercise, too.

I lost 50 lbs 7 years ago, and since then gained about 28.
