Are Men The New Woman?

I was reading the men's column in the local paper, and can you believe it, some guy wrote in asking about exercises to make his butt more shapely and attractive. The columnist's answer was, of course, was that a real man shouldn't worry about what his butt looks like.

I rode my bike last night as brisk winds pushed the coastal cloud bank to the east, towards me. I was wearing a t-shirt, and was really cold when I rode into the wind, but on the way back with the wind at my back, I felt warm and was literally sailing along.

I've only been riding a half hour at a time, and I'm paying close attention to my bad right knee. I'll begin to feel sharp pains under the kneecap at about twenty minutes, but the next day my knee seems to be progressively better.

In general, I'm on a health kick, and most recently I've completely cut out sodas, on the news that they seem to lead to metabolic syndrome, and heart and diabetes risk.
