Here is a short little video of me working out. It's kind of funny but I thought I would throw it out there.

Hey, Gidday Dexter. I feel like meeting you all over again. That's a feel-good video clip - you're a nice guy. Can 'Betty' be hitched up to a sausage machine? I sense a potential.

They have that same machine at my rehab. I haven't used it though. Stuck doing more lower extremity stuff.

Is it variable resistance? Looks neat.

Also Mac, maybe look into a less expensive hand-cycle?

(I'm downtown at the community health library. Some smart aleck rigged the network so it won't allow you-tube and facsimiles to open. Don't have my wi-fi enabled lap top with me. Wouldn't do any good anyway. They won't give me the hospital's password. [What's the matter with these guys? Too many terrorists floatin' around in these Sierra foothills. Geesch!] So, I don't know what the hell you guys are talkin' about. But I do know this - when I see words like "beautiful" comin' out o' E-dog's mouth, I know somethin's up. Now I'm really curious. Will check out the hubub when I get back home.)
