Thanks - I actually DO know the 2005 181lb WABDL Open Bench Press world record holder (He's a firefighter at my old station - my brush with greatness!). 400lbs would be an accomplishment indeed! Would surely eclipse my paltry 254lbs. But that's not difficult. LOL Has he specified what weight-class he lifts in? Or is that a verified fantasy? :D I can't say I know many IT folks who are into weight-lifting although I know a few who are into cycling or swimming. Fitness isn't usually high on our list of activities...<br /><br />From what I can tell he IS apparently an IT person, but as I've spent decades in that field it doesn't particularly impress me. I've known quite a few IT jocks who made a box of hammers look quite bright and couldn't form a cogent argument if their lives depended upon it. I'm assuming that IT is one of his narrowly-defined subjects of expertise? <br /><br />I'll put him in the 'Walter Mitty/Elwood P Dowd' category then and consider him harmless. I'm guessing that feeding him is...in poor taste? Doesn't sound like he'd be much fun to joust with and from what I've seen he suffers from the repetitive nonsense spouting that seems to infect almost all Statists.<br /><br />OrionOrionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00913419734709487748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-14014354398615771092011-09-12T20:32:22.767-05:002011-09-12T20:32:22.767-05:00Orion asked:...Is he amusing at all, or is the ama...Orion asked:...Is he amusing at all, or is the amazing intellect on display here pretty much the limits of his talent?.<br /><br />Not very amusing. Sad, pitiable, prone to incoherent hysterics, and woefully lacking in the ability to process diverse information and opinions.<br /><br />Take his tack above of claiming that Dr Mueller, who indeed is an AGW skeptic, now admits that anomalous warming exists. He doesn't. All he's done is statistically treat the data that the 3 main AGW proponents presented as proof of AGW and confirm the temperature trends. No conclusions about the provenance of the data or AGW itself were made. As a matter of fact, Dr Mueller stressed that there is a lot more to be done by his group to even affirm the trends. Following j's link to the original information, and understanding the information presented, and you would not make the claim J did.<br /><br />J also mocked a poster, BJM, for mentioning CERN. J claimed he said CERN somehow disproved AGW, but he didn't. Look at BLM,s post. It's correct. CERN recently cast a lot of doubt on one of the AGW assumptions about cloud formation.<br /><br />There's two examples and there is more evidence of his flighty approach to information in this thread alone. He does the same thing in thread after thread on subject after subject. J has some knowledge of a few narrowly defined subjects and believes it makes him smart on every other subject. In actual fact, he's a lightweight on his own subjects, and woefully ignorant on every other one I've seen him address.<br /><br />Rich fantasy life though. Ask him about his claim of bench pressing 400lbs.

Good one!<br /><br />Mike: The one thing I don't put on Al's head is his Vietnam duty. The last thing the brass and field commanders wanted to worry about was some senator's son running around in the combat zone getting his ass all shot up. Get him a job behind the lines and get him out as soon as possible. Al knew from the get-go, though, that his time in the service would be pretty easy.<br /><br />Al was groomed to follow in his father's footsteps and then become president, something Al Sr. could never aspire to because of his segregationist past. I'm not sure this was the path Al wanted to follow; it's certainly not a path he was suited for.
