Sorry, you are wrong. ;D At least based on the numbers. You know, I decided to calculate the walk/swim for 14 months anyway. Works out to 1.14kim/hour, which is a pretty slow walk. So walking here is faster than CIC. Woohoo! :p
Wait, what are the rules? Walking on water or swimming? Eating, sleeping? How many hour days?

THEY DIED IN THE 50- 60S SO I THINK MENS LIFE SPAN INCREASED SINCE THEN, I THINK MY WIFES IS HOPING THAT
My grandmother (on my mother's side) lived to 104, but her husband died in his 50's. My dad lived pretty long and could have lived longer and my mom is in her mid-80's. I think I found what killed my grandfather since it is hereditary (very common in people of celtic ancestry, though others can have it too) and I found out I have it. But luckily there is something you can do about it so I am planning on living as long as possible.

And then of course after my body can't cut it anymore have my head stuck on a monkey-body so I can live forever... ;D :p

I did 14 months, 16 hours a day, and distance of 14046km. Of course Vancouver is a lot closer so your hubby doesn't have to walk as much. Or he can have TV time or watch a movie every night...

Or how about this. The current processing time represents an average of around 1 million calories. So if you want your loved one here, get eating!!! :eek:

He's one of those men who would rather watch TV then sleep. At first I banned TV in the bedroom but then I wasn't happy with him on the couch so late so I suffer :D

I just noticed that the applications by sponsor approval date queue has stopped working. That is, apps being processed are coming from down the list, not the top. Dan_From_Surry has barely moved at all. Some of it might be people not signing on in a while (for instance, Mrs. Winter). At the same time it no longer appears to be medical related. Do you suppose the shelf broke and spilled all the apps on the floor? As they randomly pick them up they process them?
