I hate the way the media and politics are influencing alcohol and/or cigarettes. They are targeting everyone's fears and only providing their own solutions.
The influence of exercise is always good, but they are also totally wrong on the "lack" of benefits to drinking water.
MEDIA LIES.
I don't think they were trying to advocate alcohol and cigarettes as a means of living to be 101, but rather were just emphasizing that this is how Buster lives. It's apparently working for him, though I seriously doubt it would be such a benefit for the rest of us.Quote:

By the way, zeitgeist, cool video! :thumbsup:
hah thats awesome
Yea what he said! Oh and would you of rather them omit his training methods, I find there honesty to be a breath of fresh air.
The news channels repeatedly endorse drug use, even if a story has nothing to do with alcohol. Alcohol is poison, simply accept it and wake up. They are shaping our lifestyles, hence we forget to find and share our own ideas.
Oh, LOL... I thought you were saying that the media demonizes people who drink lots of water! It's all starting to make sense now... :DQuote:

There are toxins all around us, in the food we eat, and the things we drink, and in the air we breathe. In my opinion, it's better to know about them through media outlets, so that we can safeguard ourselves against overexposure.
I agree. And it's better to know "who" is telling us "what" to orderly safeguard us from stupidity. People want the truth but they are too afraid to find it.Quote:
