Turkey Pricing The main occasions when turkeys are served are Canadian Thanksgiving in October, US […]
How Heavy Is My Sabre?
By Lawrence
Answering one of the many odd questions I received, “How heavy is the sabre you mentioned in your post about your exercise practice?” What they are referring to is a piece I wrote last year, Back to Rigorous Exercise Regime and Planning for Next Year. Obviously these readers must be some kind of exercise or […]

Last year when I was training my son on some classic exercise routines, the topic of how strong one has to become so that it is sufficient for normal and unusual situations was raised.

By Lawrence

I did that not because of me reading some information from random sources on the net about the benefits of blackstrap molasses.

After the prolonged trip away from home, I have determined to find ways to do exercise pretty much everywhere. Here is a list of the equipment I will take with me on the road from now on. They are easy to carry and give one a pretty good all round workout. For me, these items […]
Keeping Fit on the Road
By Lawrence
Learned several things this week. First, internet is not that good in some part of this world. Being consistently cut off from the net while trading is a very frustrating thing. Internet access sucks big time with quite a few major hotel chains. This is making me seriously reconsidering how to trade while on the […]
