You keep a kettlebell at work? That's really cool!

Just adding that I heard the podcast Joanna was referring to and there was nothing revolutionary about it - it pretty much describes my day-to-day life.

Yes . I did toy with the idea of buying Cathe's pull-up bar and leaving it at work.

I'm not trying to get the thread all diet-y, but so can lemon juice and vinegar.

In fact, while looking for more on the subject on Saturday, I refound a tip for removing rust stains that seems to have worked: put a reasonable amount of lemon juice (or vinegar?) on the stain, let it dry in sunlight or something, and wash as normal. I had apparent rust stains on a pair of pants; after this treatment, the (small) stains went away completely, even before washing. Earlier, normal washing hadn't removed them.

Also see http://www.snopes.com/cokelore/acid.asp , which also reminds me of the existence of gastric acid. (Regurgitation Is Not Fun. ) Hydrochloric acid, the major part of gastric acid, has been used against rust too, but I'd rather get lemon juice on my clothes. Really, I don't want to get the thread all diet-y, but don't drink a glass of hydrochloric acid, OK?

Back to your regularly scheduled thread!
