Depends on selection criteria I guess
Good point. I don't think you could count people that Hammer sacked.
King Carlos might be a contender.
Or the ones who left because of the Hammeteur.
MN5s muscle maintaining musings....
A bit of an awkward couple of days of auctions, moving stuff and taking the old man out for pizza and beer. Not a lot of time for much exercise so hopefully I don’t turn to mush. I’ve also got the other half’s family thing in Hawkes Bay this weekend so that will involve a fair bit of eating and drinking to put it mildly. Will try and find somewhere to bust out a few chins at least, do a walk up the peak and hit a tire with the hammer if I get a chance.

Metropolis is a movie I have always been meaning to watch. It looked interesting since I first saw the video for Radio Ga Ga.
If you use IMDb ratings then Inception should be in a Top 10.
Back for more!

@Rancid-Schnitzel @MN5 diet is interesting in the broader scheme as well.
When I was seeing the cardiologist for the hole in my heart a couple of years back, we were discussing the type of cholesterol one of my scans showed up. The doc said it was common in men my age, particularly those who lost weight in a fairly short period of time.
I reckon paleo diet is probably something to do with it - particularly the guys who go overboard on the meat and eggs and don't bring the salad along for the ride.
Yeah my recent heart issues were nothing to do with diet thankfully but in saying that its best to be careful. We only get one of the fuckers !
