OK, the guy accross the street drives me crazy! Not sure why, maybe because he's 300 lbs of pure fat and mows his lawn shirtless (I swear, the guys a "D" cup!).
Anyhow, like most of the Northeast, we're getting hammered with snow, so far 6-8". We are both out there clearing our driveways, and this overweight guy is out there shoveling......and SMOKING!!!!!
I had 2 thoughts.....he has a deathwish, and I don't know CPR.
Doh! Lost post! Learn CPR...buy a wet suit and an oral damn and keep them handy!

Just one reason why everyone should own a artificial respiration face mask with a one way valve! Good luck and remember on an average male you need 125lbs of pressure to get the blood circulating thru the body so this guy.... I hope you have been working out (and have a cell phone so you can call 911 before you start CPR) Remember its 30 compressions to 2 breaths.

Alan,
I am surprised at you.
He is NOT fat. He is genetically predisposed to be overweight.
Smoking is not his fault. It is brought on by the mental anxiety caused by the weight problem of which he is a mere victim.

But smoking during heavy exertion is the same as having "DNR" tatooed on your forehead.

Well, you see, he is fat because of his genetics and possibly a thyroid disorder. Not one to just accept his fate he took up smoking because he heard smokers are usually thinner and they gain weight when they quit so smoking must make you thin. Then not happy with the progress from the smoking he thought he would give exercise a try so he decided to go shovel the driveway.
I think it is despicable how you guys are bashing this poor man for trying to improve himself, isn't that what we are all here for?
