Total sell out, and me not possessing my glorious soldier's physique, well-toned by years of jogging and beer drinking, mostly beer drinking, needed all the help I could get. Weirdest thing at my school, all the science profs were uber-fitness junkies for some reason, this was back before smoking was considered a form of leprosy and they never stopped ragging on me about that. Only one of the whole lot actually smoked, unsurprisingly he became my grad advisor, had a no smoking sign taped to the ashtray in his office, nice having tenure.
