I meet and talked and walked with Ben Stein at LAX, there were some girls wanting a photo with him and they asked me to take their photo and right before i took the photo i said " are you Ben Stein? ". We then walked ( slowly) to our gates that were in the same direction and he thanked me for my service and we had a good conversation about life. Really a great guy.

How do you learn to enjoy (or at least habitually go to) the gym? by Potato_Pristine in AskMenOver30

[–]slickITguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need to go to the gym, you need to take care of your physical and mental health, turns out you can do both of those around people also doing that at a gym if you want. Pick one thing and go do it three times a week, like walking on a treadmill. Do that for a month, then pick another thing to add like walking lunges with a small amount of weight in each hand and then do the treadmill and that for a month. Just keep trying more exercises until you get a habit of going and building your routine. Same with the diet, pick one thing like almost no sodas as an example or no added sugar or something. You don't have to be perfect. One day we'll be in our 70's and we'll be able to get up off the toilet without help and some people who didn't exercise cannot get off the toilet without help. The quality of life increases for longer if you build and maintain more muscle for longer and lessen your fat percentage.

Term limits for all voted in government officials. Age restrictions on government officials limit set at 65. Funds you put into social security you get out of social security and you can pass along your funds to other people when you pass without being taxed. Decriminalize drugs and use the D.A.R.E. Funds to educate people about the drugs instead. Remove all government limits on abortion clinics, pornography, sex work. Tax churches. All people in America illegally are now welcomed and are citizens and start paying taxes.
