26 and counting, with an ever growing "doughnut." Desk jobs have been turning my blood into molasses and are slowing bring my metabolism to a 5mph cruise. Anyone find a way to play go while running on a treadmill or using an exercise bike? :D
Ko is the best solution.
With Ko, I can keep eating and drinking until I am full.

I find that my laptop just wedges nicely between the handlebars on the exercise bike.

Hmmm...anyone want to have a 'play while you exercise' room on KGS? The rules would be that you must be burning at least X calories per hour while playing.

time for an update from me:

21

often i feel like an already dead man due to the exams at university (though the feeling doesn't exactly reflect age, more level of screwedness). on the other hand, my 17 years old sister's online friends think i am her younger brother, so probably not so bad :)
Spilling gasoline feels good.

I might be wrong, but probably not.

I'm 28, but my perspective on time is screwed up, so I don't know what I feel like.

I'm the oldest in my group of friends, but I sometimes feel like the youngest. -shrugs-

In a few months I'll be 45.

I've worked too long in market research because this is a big year. I'll no longer be 35-44, I'll be 45-54...

16. Feels about right. I act older then I am sometimes, but at my core I emphasise mostly with who I am at this moment. Definitely young for this forum, probably for go players in general. I wonder what the median age is? Is it the same for Oriental countries as the rest of the world (where most people don't even know what Go is)?

I'm about 5 minutes old. I'm just a dummy account that Joaz uses to test forum functioning.
