and even the jokes were better than I feared... "Tires" indeed!

I like the idea of the various-size balls, I'll try that one. Hammers? Been there, done that. Wrasslen' a worm-drive saw for 4 years will build ya up tough, too... I was a carpenter at the end of the eighties/early 90s, and while I had an amazing grip, I also had blown-out elbow... I guess I'm just built delicate.

I've got one of those "Bowflex" machines in next to my reloading bench. Guesss I'd better dust it off and set it up. Gotta be careful, though... at 41 I've got the body of an eighty year old... old sins coming back to haunt me. Crushed disk in my neck, bad knees, bad elbows, cancer surgery... sheeesh. I look like I was "drug behind the horse."

Walosi, your story is truly inspiring. Thanks for taking the time to write, and glad you are back on your feet.

Thanks again, all.
