Life is harsh, Mr. Catmandu.

Especially now that he's stopped doing new books.

Why are you reading him given that he sucks?

Recommending him to Hank, however, I understand.

I listened to a short history of nearly everything when I was unpacking from a move and found it passed the time nicely. I probably have bad taste.

Please let me know. I've years of glazed hams, big macs and triple fudge sundaes to catch up on...
DOn't be fatuous, sebby. You know that there is a difference people staying healthy and being a fanatic. And that difference is obsession.

From what I understand, you are hot enough that you don't need to lift weights. Just a few pushups and situps and you are just fine.

It is a foul truth I utter indeed.

I'm trading in the Mercedes. Now stop picking on me.

My old man is 240, and he looks pregnant. I either run a half hour on the machine evry day or I'm doomed.

Bad genetics. Trust me, I'd looooove not to work out. I don't enjoy it (except for the endorphin rush).

Fatuous? Thanks. I forgot about that word. Thats a fantastic word. I'm going to use that in the brief I'm writing, even if it doesn't fit.

Sebby, don't be dumbest. A daily half hour of exercise is not fanatical.

Come to think of it, your HS must have been better than my grad school, because I don't recall ever discussing sine or cosine curves there.

I feel so inadequate.
Don't feel inadequate. A quick consultation with my old Math Blaster coloring book seems to indicate that these things weren't invented until after we graduated high school.

What about running 70 miles per week?

I can guarantee it doesn't make me physically look better...

But I always feel like I can run through a wall, even when I'm, not running, and I don't get tired or sore doing anything.*

*except for bowling. My god, two games and my wrist is killing me. I'll never make it past the semis.

See? Think about it long enough and you answer your own question.

"Denise" is not actually a hairdresser; she's a legal secretary or a physician's assistant, or a cocktail waitress at the last three-martini lunch lounge downtown. The reason for the fake tits and the bleached blond hair is so she will look enough like the hookers and strippers that Marv, the divorced-long-enough-to-have-gotten-back-on-his-feet PI lawyer is sick of throwing money at for bodyslides and blowjobs on the road.

She knows that this will enhance her ability to attract Marv's attention. And she knows that Marv will marry her pretty quick because she swallows, and like Marv, she doesn't want any kids.*

From the first blowjob to the first S500 is only a matter of months. And she knows Marv won't ultimately throw her aside for a youngetr version of herself in 10 years because, well, he really doesn't have the looks or style to pull that maneuver off twice.

*Marv doesn't want any more kids because the child support from his first marriage is already costing him a left nut; Denise doesn't want them because pregnancy will fuck up the boob job.
