My name is Chris, and I'm a Fat Guy. It wasn't something I planned, or enjoy. The only benefit I've found to being as large as a Third Stage Guild Navigator is that I'm less likely to blow away in a storm, and in an emergancy I can throw myself against doors and they always open. Walls too, sometimes.
But, even though this world is designed for skinny little people, and even though I work every day to lose weight despite a variety of factors, I still have a right to exist in relative comfort. I may be able to lose the combined weight of my wife and kids and still be a bit chunky, but I also have something to say. And a lot of that is what I've learned being a ginormous person in a world made by people who don't even understand how you can chafe just standing still. And here is where I'll share.
If you're just interested in something random and potentially witty, I have a place for that too.
If you'd like me to review your product or service, just drop me an email and I'll take a look. I can't promise I'll do it, or that I'll like it, but I'll do my best. And I'll be disclosing whenever a review has been suggested, endorsed, or otherwise influenced.

...The Tornado at Great Wolf Lodge

I have to ask which great wolf lodge was this at? I have rode the Tornado at the GWL Concord NC a couple times. The stairs are killer. I am about 250, but last time I rode it I was 286 and rode with my daughter barely 50lbs and my hubby barely 145lbs.

I must have strange taste. I look at the top fiction paperbacks, and the
only ones I've read I didn't really like. I tend to read different things.

I've always liked the "End of the World" genre, with the Fallout type being
the best. Mad Max comes to mind (but not the later ones in the series).
