Episode 32
Have you got the creeps? Marv does. Specifically, the CHIRSTMAS CREEPS! Yes, it's that time of year again. Actually, like every year, it's even EARLIER this year - again - when Marv gets a chance to report on businesses going rogue and putting out their holiday displays early. Real early. In this case a major department store put out a display last week! For Christmas stuff. It's not even Labor Day yet! What is the world coming to?!? It was bad enough when there were jack-o-lanterns out with snowmen, but this is just downright ridiculous.
Also this week, Marv takes a peek at the Peek. Which isn't as clever as it sounds. It's a reasonably new handheld device that does a bunch of smartphone stuff, EXCEPT have a phone, which is an interesting new twist. And Marv also weighs himself and for some reason admits his weight on camera. It's all in the name of science. Or saving money. Something like that. Maybe both! Distributed by Tubemogul.
@bohnstube & my math is also faulty. 30 bucks + 20 bucks equals 50 bucks, and not 55 bucks. Yes, I should've caught the error, should've proof-read my post, my apologies. Still, state & local taxes not mentioned as being added onto the gym membership & diet aid costs (if applicable) would raise the costs above the $50 total. BTAIM, the "revised" Real Math cost of $50(ish) divided by the 3 lbs. lost, really equals @ least a cost of $16.67/lb lost. Again, all good luck to you in losing the weight!

"Your math"= $7.78/lb. Real math (yes, only "so far") if you've spent (by your own estimations) 30 dollars for one month gym membership+ 20 bucks for pills= $55 you will never get back (unless you are so inclined to try & convince the place you bought the Zantrex3 from to give you a full or partial refund for whatever reason) divided by the 3 lbs. you lost, and "Your Math" translated to Real Math suddenly equals $18.33/lb lost. Good wishes to you in getting that cost/lb. down by losing pounds!

You're a new discovery for me. Not a pre-inauguration, Obama-Zombie, "thrill up my leg" Chris Matthews-type of fascination, but hey... I by & large agree w/ your feelings re: Christmas creep. I must correct your "mistaken math reasoning" in re's: to incentivizing yourself for weight loss. Your "cost per day" or "cost /lb. of weight lost" should include your entire gym bill so far because the money's already been spent, whether you ever go again or not, whether you ever lose another lb. or not
