I’m approaching middle age, and am starting to worry about my weight.
I have a very sedentary job, I eat on the go, and lately I’ve noticed
that I’m packing it on a bit at the waist. I was wondering if you had
any advice on weight loss and maintaining a healthy diet?

Torpor: A form of inactivity, torpor is a state when an animal ceases movement for part of the day and drops its body temperature in order to conserve energy. Some animals, including newts, can enter this state for a longer period of times months and this is the more commonly known hibernation. But torpor is more akin to you lying on your couch in front of your television barely staying conscious as you watch back-to-back soap operas.

Looking for answers about this episode? It is funnier when you know what’s going on.

Train A is leaving Dildo, Newfoundland at 6 a.m. headed for Kapuskasing, Ontario at a speed of 80 kilometres per hour and Train B is leaving at 7:20 a.m. from Kapuskasing for Dildo at 110 kilometres per hour. At what point on the trip will they crash into one another?

Danica McKellar: (no relation to Canadian actor Don McKellar) Best known as Winnie Cooper on the coming-of-age series The Wonder Years, Danica McKellar has, in fact, appeared in a number of shows, including The West Wing and more recently How I Met Your Mother.

But in addition to her acting career, she has focused heavily on academics. A summa cum laude graduate from UCLA, she’s apparently a mathematical genius and has published a text book for high schools. Entitled, Math Doesn’t Suck it’s intended to attract more girls to the male-dominated field. The book is available at Amazon.ca for $18.90 (as I write this) – used copies for under $10.

So she’s fantastic. She’s smart, theoretically has some sense of humour as she has acted in comedy, really hot and around my age. So marry me Danica and have my mathematically-inclined babies!

I just started dating Bobby Crenshaw, he’s captain of the football team and he’s so dreamy. And I love with all my heart. But things are moving so fast and I’m a good Christian girl that wants to save herself for marriage because I don’t want to go to Hell. The heat would really mess up my hair. We go to the lake in his sexy Honda Civic every night after his practice and fool around. His arms are so strong and manly. Every time he touches me my knees quake and I want him inside me. How far do you think I could go while still holding onto my virginity? Like, for example, does it count as sex if he uses a condom?

Spermatophore: A small packet of sperm cells.

Cloaca: The genital tracts of amphibians, reptiles and birds, the cloaca is used to expel urine and feces. During mating, the male newt can release spermatophore from his cloaca and the female picks it up with hers in a process called amplexus. But some male newts fertilize the eggs without contact.

I have a 1967 Buick Skylark that I have taken on as a restoration
project. The body’s in pretty good shape, the interior’s got some dry
rot, but should be easy to reupholster. My problem is that I can’t
find parts for the transmission. My choices seem to be replacing the
whole tranny with something more modern, or get replacement parts
custom machined. Both choices have upsides and downsides. What do you
think I should do?
