		<description><![CDATA[	Back again for more punishment.
	Squats:
2&#215;5 using stick
1&#215;5 empty bar
6&#215;5 bar + 15 lbs
I caught myself cheating a little, so did an extra set.  Note that it&#8217;s cheating if the tops of your thighs are not parallel to the floor at your lowest point.  That sounds like it would hurt your knees, but it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Today I was more careful about the bar I was using, but not about proper form.  I found myself cheating on my squats, so I did some extra sets to hopefully make up for it.
	Squats:
2&#215;5 warmup no bar
7&#215;5 10 lbs, cheated on some of the first sets by now going down far enough.
Again, my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Well, I managed to get to the gym in a timely manner today.  I call my father every two weeks, and today was that day, so I wanted to get my gym visit out of the way first.
	Anyway, it was squats, bench press, and barbell rows today.

3&#215;5 warmup no weight, but using a stick [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I totally forgot to write about my workout yesterday.  Anyway, here is the synopsis:
	Squats
3&#215;5 warmup, no weight, but using a stick to mimic the bar
5&#215;5 bar only, a little easier this time, still had a weak moment on the very last rep
will probably put on 5lbs next time.
	Military presses
6&#215;5 empty bar just to get [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I&#8217;ve been working out off and on for the last 27 years or so.  Lately it&#8217;s been more off than on, due to the pressures of work, illness, laziness, whatever.  Every now an then I would start up again, get stronger, then have to quit for some reason.  I never reached my [...]]]></description>

	Afterwards, you too can speak about the Frankfurt school and its lingering effect on what used to [...]]]></description>

Should a restaurant allow smoking or not? I have no idea. Neither do you. Who does? The restaurant owner. The restaurant owner knows that if he bans smoking, he will get more business from non-smokers and less business from smokers. He also knows that if he doesn&#8217;t ban smoking, he will get more business [...]]]></description>

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good [...]]]></description>

In the 19th century, even though capitalism had only existed for a short time, and had just started putting a dent in pre-capitalism’s legacy of poverty, the vast, vast majority of Americans were already able to support their own lives through their own productive work. Only a tiny fraction of a [...]]]></description>

I am starting to feel as if I am living in a Vandal state, perhaps on the frontier near Carthage around a.d. 530, or in a beleaguered Rome in 455. Here are some updates from the rural area surrounding my [...]]]></description>
