RE: Are the majority of WitPers overweight?
[:D] I can hear it now.
Wife: "Honey what's that smell?"
Player: "Me, I haven't left the computer for 36 hours."
Wife: "OMG! Get up and wipe, and then take a shower!"
Player: "I can't! Manila is down to 200 supply points. They have no toilet paper!"
Wife reaches for the computer plug: "Get off now or you'll see what happens when a comet smacks into Pearl Harbor!"
Player: "....yes dear."
Player gets up
Wife: "Holy S***, tghat smells worse, sit on it you freak!"
Player: "Woo hoo! Now time to launch my new operation."
Somewhere along the line you HAVE to take a break, seeing as how you get your notice of job termination/failing classes/served with divorce papers, but thats how it owuld proceed.

Tankerace;
There is another way:
HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR CONDOM CATHETER
GENERAL INFORMATION:
What is it?
A condom catheter is a way to drain your bladder without putting a catheter (rubber tube) into your urethra (u-REE-thruh). Your urethra is the tube that runs from the outside of your body into your bladder. Your bladder is where urine is stored in your body.
A condom catheter is a rubber sheath that is put over your penis. A condom catheter allows you to empty your bladder without using a urinal, bedpan, or toilet. This is especially useful for long-haul truck drivers, astronauts and computer wargame geeks. Your condom catheter is hooked to a plastic tube which leads to a bag. The urine stays in the bag until it is emptied into the toilet.
What should I know about using a condom catheter? Condom catheters are made of several different materials, such as latex. Do not use a latex catheter if you are allergic (phonetics) to latex. Different types of condom catheters may attach to your penis in different ways. Some catheters have a velcro attachment, and others have a special tape. Do not use adhesive tape. Always read and follow the directions given with the catheter when putting on, taking off, and throwing away the catheter.
How do I put on the condom catheter? The following are general guidelines for using a condom catheter. If the instructions that came in the box with the catheter are different from these, follow those instructions.
Gather the following items:
Waterproof pad or bath towel.
Bowl of warm water, soap, washcloth, and hand towel.
Correct size of condom catheter (small, medium, large, extra large). [insert insulting comment here]
Velcro, tape, or other kind of sheath holding material.
Urine bag with tube.
Place the waterproof pad or bath towel under you if you are working in a chair, bed or computer desk.
Wash your penis using soap and water. Rinse and dry your penis carefully.
You may want to clip the hair or even shave the area near the base of your penis. Removing hair from this area will keep it from being caught in the condom or the attachment.
Wash, rinse, and dry your hands..............

So my 30 years still make me a youngster here, LOL! And I'm not overweight due to WitP - I run everywhere I go double time in order to get home again to the 'puter ASAP - but then what awaits me there are the duties of a modern young father: changing diapers, bathing the baby, household chores to unburden the mother... Release of WitP + a newborn = baaaad timing! But well, the little one got his first computer class already. [:)]

It's not the problem of being overweight, it's the problem of being undersized [:)]
RE: Feel Young?
My beard is 35 years old. I wish I could remember 19, then again, maybe I don't. Can anyone say Boot Camp?
My problem is not that I am overweight. I am under tall. I should be 9'6".

Hehe. People, one can't make generalizations about a whole group of people from 50-70 year olds who are on a tour group of Europe. Not everyone in the US is overweight.

Being overweight does not mean one is out of shape. Round is a shape.[:D]
I give approximately two fifths of a !#$% at any given time!

RE: Are the majority of WitPers overweight?
33 years old, 6'3" and 300 Lbs. My Playing weight was 270. I am probably 50 lbs over now. I do participate in Karate 5 times a week and can still run 3 miles in 25 minutes [:D] Just to much time sitting at a desk. Not enough physical activity. I can't get myself into lifting weights anymore, rather play WitP. Now If I can get a laptop and play while on the Excercise bike...[:'(]

RE: Are the majority of WitPers overweight?
32 yrs old (just turned few weeks ago) 5'10 160, although the weight may steadily increase proportionate with amount of time sitting at computer staring at the DEI working out all my little machinations. steady diet of beer and cigarettes and WITP.
