Sarge, we could march faster without bricks…
Blog Guy, a couple of months ago you said there were pockets of China that have little gravity. Do you have any more info on that?
Sure. Here are military training photos from Sichuan Province. These guys have bricks hanging on them at all times, even when they sleep, just to keep grounded.
I think you’re full of it. I’ve seen people walking around brickless in Sichuan without any problem.
I’m going to change my answer slightly. These guys are in a yo-yo club. Chinese yo-yos are…
No, they’re not yo-yos, Blog Guy…
This man suffers from sleep-walking, and the brick stops him from… Wait! These are prisoners in a Chinese chain gang?
That’s it! You’re a moron. I’m out of here.
Don’t go! These are Chinese lunchboxes. Hey Chen, I’ll trade you my Braunschweiger sandwich for your Hostess Cupcake….”

Hahaha! Chinese lunchboxes! I love it!
For their sakes I hope that conga line doesn’t get to rowdy.
We spend 1/2 million on fancy excercise equipment for our guys, they just grab some bricks. . .. go figure.
That’s pretty much how I feel every day at work.
