see, there's another question. were males meant to get married? isn't marriage based on religion? what if i'm not religious at all? why should i stick to a practice i think is bogus? i think most people get married because it's what everyone else is doing, but is it really what we're supposed...

i saw this on the news and shut off the tv when i heard the reporters complaining about it. if an adult female wants to run around naked, doesn't mind getting hit by a paintball, and an adult male wants to shoot his paintball gun at her, why should anyone stop them?

yes, but you don't get something from nothing. you CAN not get fat without exercising. i am NOT at all recommending not exercising. i'm just making a point. i calculate my calories every single day. my total calories adjust each day according to how much exercise i do and if i'm trying to...

axeman, you've always been one of my favorite thinkers on ET and i agree with you here as well. i definitely believe that most people's eating habits are WAY out of whack compared to what the human body has evolved to. it took thousands and thousands of years for our bodies to evolve to what...

do you know why 30 is the magic number? i remember when i read about bet sizing (optimal f), there was a optimum bet size according to your trading statistics. what i'm wondering is, if there is somehow an optimum magic number for test results. like maybe there is some calculation i can do...
