That guy does not know how to swing a hammer, among other things.
He does, however -- and I quite agree -- know well how to build suspense up to a satisfying release.
We're rewatching the last season of "Mad Man" in anticipation of the next installment. Not nearly as much good theater as a man, a hammer, a wall, and an intoxication.
Speaking of which, sort of, CrossFit has gone full sellout commercial. It used to promote exercises like banging a giant truck tire with a sledge hammer. Functional fitness was the gimmick. Guess they can't get advertising dollars from companies that sell used truck tires. You can get a hammer at Lowe's or Home Depot.
Not that it matters all that much. I thought swinging a hammer at a tire was kind of dumb. There's an exercise they call "the farmer's walk." You grab two heavy dumbbells or something and you walk until you want to die and then you return. Functional fitness was the gimmick.
Some discordant interloper barged into one of the comment threads: "Farmer's walk? You want to get in shape by working on a farm? I own a farm. Come on over and I'll give you all the work you can stand and I'll even pay you for it."

I thought that was great.
That' some big time vandalism.
All you need is a strong back and a weak mind, like this guy.
That guy was an Arab right?
I think that is how they build most of their countries. Just sayn'
