Southington Hamfest...<BR>><BR> >Thanks to pop culture's idea of
a bad joke, manly<BR>men are now portrayed as<BR>boorish, brutish
Neanderthals wrapped in a<BR>metrosexual exterior. You can<BR>still spot the
occasional alpha male in your gym.<BR>First, you must look past<BR>the
hordes decked out in color-coordinated<BR>"mandannas," who sport
tweezed<BR>eyebrows and sip designer water while texting away on<BR>their
smart phones as<BR>they wait for a turn on the ab-isolation machine.
An<BR>alpha will be<BR>conquering the squat rack, manhandling the
free<BR>weights and not resting long<BR>enough between sets to talk, much
less text. (In<BR>fact, he leaves his phone<BR>in the locker room or at home
and communicates using<BR>real communication, FM<BR>simplex a SSB modes
using "real" antennae.) Truth be<BR>told, alphas are made,<BR>not born. They
attain their status through many hours<BR>of hard training, long<BR>QSO's as
well as eating the right foods. If you're<BR>ready to unleash your<BR>inner
beast, look no further than "The Alpha Male<BR>Meal Plan" designed
to<BR>optimize testosterone levels, maximize your<BR>muscle-building
potential and<BR>give you the edge you need to stay ahead of the
pack.<BR><BR>More on the "Alpha Male Meal Plan" in the
