Did they get the $1100 or $1600 model. Looked like everyone had fun on the
news. The fitness, cheapo model, looks like no fun though.

Mashing vs Circles -- same efficiency?
Is mashing the same as punching at the top of the arc for efficiency. Like

Calcium in any form is my way of keeping muscles uncramped.
Are you eating less cheese these days.
