Backpacking Coda: I had an annual physical. The usual stuff. At one point my doctor asked if I would run out of breath going up the stairs. Looking at me, i could totally understand the question. Being me, I was a little taken aback. I stared my doctor in the eye and very calmly said "I just got back from a 30mile backpacking trip. I think I'm good"
She was flabbergasted. Which was rude and spectacular. The conclusion was that I was in great shape for a guy in terrible shape.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
