Whoa... Funyuns! This was one of my go-to chip choices as a kid.
Some good old-fashioned HIITs. This research is pretty amazing (can you really get that fit in two 20-minute workouts a week?). And (I feel like this a guy thing, because I feel like I have to prepare myself to be a human shield for my family, able to wrest a knife or gun from a surprise attacker at any moment) I love the visceral feel of all-out, do-or-die sprinting, both during and after.

It seems pretty unlikely that someone, having finally figured out how to travel through gd time, would bother going fourteen paltry years into the future to "warn" people about such a relatively unimportant event given the entire history of human existence, especially when he could just go FIFTEEN years into the future, see if people DO elect Gingrich, and, you know, jot down some notes on the real-world implications of Newt's having been elected so that this guy might have some hard data with which to convince those people not to elect Newt after all. Also, why is he "warning" people about the past, and why is he speaking of that past as if it hasn't already happened? I mean, sure, I get it, this is the exact point the article is making, viz. people are acting like what happened 14 years ago never actually happened, but then what about this: Time travel didn't even exist in 1998, so how could this dude have come from then?

Come to think of it, you do have a point there. I thought something was wrong with that story.
