There was a recent thread on the GB about attaching weights for pinch work. If you
have the cash, the best bang for the buck will be magnetic Platemates. I have multiple
pairs of 5/8lb, 1.25lb,2.5lb and 5lb. They will become a solid mass with your implement(s).

I've been watching videos of the "laying string attached plates over the tops of blobs" method.
Many of the examples shown have the implement leaving the ground first and the plates leaving
the ground when the strings slack is finally taken up. This is like getting a head start in a foot race. You are fooling yourself when you win.

If you are going to use this method, be sure that the added plates are not
touching the ground and they get airborne at the same time as the implement.

For Some Ohioans, Even Meat Is Out Of Reach - NPR News


Fat fucks who can't afford to eat enough. ;)

....The rising cost of food means their money gets them about a third fewer bags of groceries — $100 used to buy about 12 bags of groceries, but now it's more like seven or eight. So they cut back on expensive items like meat, and they don't buy extras like ice cream anymore. Instead, they eat a lot of starches like potatoes and noodles.....

I blame George Bush's friends in Big Ice Cream for this high priced crisis.

I'd like to shop with them and see how they are stretching $100.00 to buy 8 bags of friggin
groceries. I can use the help. ;)

Read the entire tear soaked article at NPR HERE.
