Does anodizing stick to other anodizing? What would happen if you anodized a marker red, then lasered a pattern into it, then ano'd it blue? Would the red color be affected?

In early October, I was challenged by a co-worker to lose 30 pounds by Christmas break (I work at a school). I made it my mission to prove that I could do it, and then keep up with it. For the first few weeks, I didn't weigh myself because I was scared to see how much I weighed. Over the first few weeks of watching what I was eating, I noticed my clothes fitting better. On October 22, I finally got on a scale and weighed in at 330. Since I didn't have a "real" starting weight for the beginning of October, I wanted to get down to 300 by break. I noticed the weight coming off steadily, made my goal and ended up losing over 35 by Christmas. Progress continued until I went on a weeks vacation to France. I don't know if you know, but France is pretty damn good at making pastries. Over the course of the 7 days, I gained 8 pounds, but was back to my pre-travel weight by the middle of the following week. After that, I was really into losing weight; daily workouts on the exercise bike, and just recently, I started running. Today, I weighed in at 240. My next, and possibly final (for now), goal is to get down to 220 by the time Living Legends starts. I wanted to be in an XL by then, but that was accomplished about a month ago. I plan on updating this thread every week or so.


September 22, Jan 9, and April 9

On facebook, one of my friends is hating on the Blackhawks because of how they scored 8 goals last night, and Patrick Kane scored off of a spin.

"Kane's "spin o rama" was as nice as a polished turd. He better be thanking the goalie for completely missing it"



Then, I posted the Mythbusters segment about polishing turd balls.





Does that make me a troll?

Lance Armstrong has said that he's going to stop fighting the investigation into his 7 Tour de France wins, and everyone is saying that the USADA is going to strip his titles. Does the USADA really have the power to do that?
