Short enough synopsis for you?
For those new to this.....the above post is meant to trigger Whackmaster and cause him to go to the gym for an angry workout thereby releasing some stress and improving his overall health during this stressful time for all of us.
Whack -- you're welcome, just looking out for your health!
