Tank McNamara by Bill Hinds for February 16, 2020

Cute Mr Hinds. Knew part of the word but still had to refer to my translator to get the full meaning (Google it)!

In the first panel, Tank looks…thin.

Bill does a great job of hiding the other guy’s gut until the reveal in the last frame.

It should be pretty easy to stick to a diet that requires 10,000 calories.

Scamdar! Nice one.

So, not a scam then.

I’m bigger than the average guy and in my younger years (especially my 20’s) I could really put away the food, but no way could I come close to 10,000 calories a day! Now in my 60’s, I can’t even take in 2,000 calories… I just can’t eat nearly as much (and I certainly don’t need that much either). I remember when working with the military (I was not military, just working in the training area), I understood that with the high intensity winter training that the guys were doing, they were supposed to eat something like 5,000 or 6,000 calories a day, but that it was actually difficult to get them to eat that much (and these would be very active young males too)! If anyone thinks my understanding or recollection is wrong, I am open to correction.

Is “sumo watch” a real thing?
