Red's Weekly ReCrap #9 -- Are We Limp and Hard to Manage?
I turned 30 on Thursday night, and the glaucoma is amazing! Not too sure about the impending incontinence, though. On that note… it’s time for da ReCrap. Red’s Weekly ReCrap – Week ending August 18, 2006
The FitCast and Training forums had lots of comments and discussion on Jonathan Fass’ episode, with many non-exercise science geeks curious about his career change from business consulting to fitness guru. Shame about the stuttering audio error at the end of the episode, though especially since it came during Jonathan’s explanation of the vocational shift. Fit… to…memrg….riei…..dkaod…..burms al…
A futile yet entertaining bidding war emerged over who would get to hire Danny King as a trainer in the future. JP, Brian Grasso, Chris Correia… everybody wants a piece of the chick magnet. Unfortunately for them, my experience in recruiting will trump them all. You see, it’s a simple matter of understanding a person’s currency, and I know what Danny values above all else.
In the nutrition thread, Jimbo started a good discussion on the small tweaks that can make or break a diet, similar to Craig Ballantyne’s warnings about Half & Half and other sneaky fatteners. Sadly, the title (“It’s the little things that count… got a little thing?”) threw off some forumites who routinely complain of shrinkage.
In case you missed it, FishRCutB8 floored us this week with the revelation that he was diagnosed with testicular cancer and will undergo surgery next week. He is clearly man enough to handle it, though, taunting Ninja that he could still take him with one ball tied behind his back. Interesting challenge, although if any man approached me with a cancerous testicle behind his back, I’d probably give up too.
The Thursday random thoughts thread rounds out the daily series here at the forums. Monday is the MMMM, Tuesday is pjb’s picture post, Wednesday is hot guys, Thursday is random thoughts, and Friday is the ReCrap… and that other thread with chicks or sumtin’. Mark it down – JP:1 Work productivity: 0
Speaking of themed series, did we really need a dedicated thread of random thoughts? I mean, we already have 2,756 of those… that’s how many threads Ninja has posted in. How bout a thread of "best car features" instead?
If you are wondering where the title of this week’s ReCrap came from, it’s from this movie. It stars Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans when they were basically unknowns; I give it 2 dingleberries up.

Another good one RL.
Before you click on the insert link icon, click on the little A/ big A in the upper right. That puts it into the text editor mode. Now, insert your link and the name of your link will be highlighted. You can paste in the true name or just type whatever name you want.
Can't you just highlight the word (you know, click and drag your mouse over the words so that they turn a different color) and hit the world/link button (6th button from the left on the quick reply screen)? Then you paste in your link (i.e. www.yahoo.com) and hit ok. Voila!

Yes, but then you can't name it whatever you want.

Yes you can. First you type the phrase as you wish it to appear.
Say "FISH TALK"
Then you highlight it.
Then you hit the link button, and a window pops up.
You paste the desired link in and hit "Enter" (Return, for those of us old enough to remember).
Voila. FISH TALK
