Pat Robertson and God’s Own Protein Shakes
Automated disclaimer: This post was written more than 15 years ago and I may not have looked at it since.
Older posts may not align with who I am today and how I would think or write, and may have been written in reaction to a cultural context that no longer applies. Some of my high school or college posts are just embarrassing. However, I have left them public because I believe in keeping old web pages alive—and it's interesting to see how I've changed.
Pat Robertson on a leg-press machine
Waldo has already covered Pat Robertson's ridiculous claim to leg-press 2000 lbs, but I saw an AP article this morning inthe Daily Progress that talked about it. They show a picture of what appears to be Pat Robertson working a fully-loaded leg-press machine. I didn't believe it for a second. In fact, upon closer inspection, I noticed that the machine was still in locked position. Don't believe me? Inspect it here yourself.

Um, doesn't the date also read '94? Is that intentional?
Tim McCormack says:
I'm willing to look past that. If the batteries had recently been changed on the camera, it would revert to the camera manufacture date or some default.
Shawn Anthony says:
Rev. Pat is such a character, isn't he? East Coast Storms, meteorites, and leg pressing a ton. Man, this is great material!

You should see what neosamurai85 did with this. I can always count on him for the punchline.
