Last night, I stretched out on the living room floor. Immediately, my daughter Teresa ran over and stood on my throat. She's 22 months old.

Never ever freeze veggies after you've cooked them for microwaving later. They turn to absolute mush and are disgusting.
Ya learn something new every day.

If a vegetarian becomes a zombie, does he still eat brains or just heads of lettuce?

A vegetarian cannot become a zombie. They don't get enough lysine.
FACT.

If a veggie took a supplement, could he be a zombie? I mean, if he wanted to?
When did you become an expert on zombies?

You have to be prepared for all eventualities. Know your enemy.

For deadlifts I just use chalk and a mixed-grip, but for things like barbell rows and high pulls I like to use straps.

Obviously, you're stronger than the straps anyway--you might as well lose them!

Today at the gym I saw a guy doing box jumps with a barbell on his back. Instead of a plyo box (we have two) he was using a bench. He lifted the bar off a rack facing outwards, took a wide stance, did a quarter squat with his knees caving inwards, and jumped, landing on the bench in front of him with a wide stance. At the end of his set he backed into the rack. Then, as if that wasn't dangerous enough, he placed a plastic cardio step (the kind people use for step aerobics) under each end of the bench to raise it 3-4 inches. Needless to say, these steps aren't made for that, and I was half expecting one or both to crush under the strain (he went up to 155 lbs). The worst part however, is that he's one of the trainers.
