Just how many 12oz. curls am I suppose to do a day? :D gypsyman
I just realized what your problem with your exercise program is.  ??? You used the wrong weights.  The weight is too light.  :P You have to do 5 sets of 10 curls with a 40 ounce bottle of Bud.  ;D ;D

My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.

There is a secret to opening those jars. 'Spank' the bottom of them with the heal of your hand a good lick.  This breaks the air seal and 9 times out of 10 you will be able to twist off the lid with bare hands.

As far as plastic hard shell packaging goes a razor knife or multipurpose kitchen shears is the way to go.

That works lol!
As I got older I adopted a strategy used by those gang bosses you see in the movies. The Bosses are old, and the thug muscle boys are young...........Just get someone to do it for you lol! (I know!) Just ain't manly is it?
Here's a little secret I've found for building my arm and shoulder muscles. You might wish to adopt this regimen. 3 days a week works well!

 I started out by standing outside the house with a 5 pound potato sack in each hand extending my arms straight out to my sides and holding them there as long as I could.

 After a few weeks I moved up to 10 pound potato sacks, then 50 pound potato sacks and finally I got to where I could lift a 100 pound potato sack in each hand and hold my arms straight out for more than a full minute!

 Next, I started putting a few potatoes in the sacks, but I would caution you not to overdo it at this level!
