FYI – I found this a useful link especially for estimating live weight versus cut weight when purchasing 1/2 a hog or portion of a steer. For example, buying a hog with a live weight purchase of $2.00/lb is actually approximately double or $4 per lb of actual meat in the freezer (excluding butcher fees).

I think I need to know Mr. Exercise’s secret. He has been obliterating workouts. I think also need to know his real name since I feel silly being crushed by a guy I only know as “Mr. Exercise.” How do I explain that to my wife? Her: “How was the workout?” Me: “Terrible, Mr. Exercise halved my time. No, I think his real name is Mr. Exercise.”
