    It's common knowledge that the kilt adds at least 20 lbs to all your lifts.

    A kilt could get caught in the moving parts of some exercise machines, damaging the kilt or machine or both. Loose garments are off-limits in machine shops and woodworking shops; seems to me they should be off-limits at the gym, too.

    The only exercise machines that belong in a gym are the grunty, sweaty, stinky, organic ones. You're probably thinking of one of them 'health club' thingies. Oddly enough, that also happens to be the name of a new motivational truncheon I'm unveiling soon:

    The Williams Health Klub

    30 inches of stout hickory, perfectly balanced for those precision swats: Bacon from lips, cake from forks, fannies from sofas. Also included is the patented Pookey's Pudge Prod technology...developed by Taser (Nasdaq: TASR), the Health Klub provides that extra little 'get-up-and-go' to any recalcitrant workout partner.

    Kilts are fine at my gym, BTW. I've even worked out in my undies.

    Aye! Plus one!

    Got to hide those from my PT. I usually lay down on the bench and fall asleep.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    A review of the literature suggests, however, that maximum improvements were attained only when female researchers conducted the study...
