Final Fantasy of Fitness
When I decided that I needed to do more than just weight training to keep myself at my ideal weight luck was on my side. Final Fantasy XIII just came out. The relevance?

The power of difference
I'm a lover of good audio but I don't consider myself an "audiophile". Why? Well I don't agree with a lot of the common beliefs that go with that label.
