WS&F: It's the year 3000. What's your workout?
Leela: For cardio, I kickbox with an intelligent grasshopper from
Arcturus--six legs means you have to dodge a lot of kicks. For strength, I fly the
spaceship out to a low-gravity region and bench-press it.
WS&F: What sports do you play?
Leela: I'm training for the Titanium Triathlon, which involves pedaling a
human-powered spaceship to Jupiter, swimming a lap around its liquid helium-hydrogen
surface and fighting a floating ball with a light saber.
WS&F: Do you consider muscles sexy?
Leela: Yes. The Fungus People of Ophiuchi XII don't have any muscles at
all, and when's the last time one of them got a date?
WS&F: Has technology replaced manual labor in the thirtieth century?
Leela: It has replaced manual labor, mental labor and leisure. I keep in
shape because I think it will all crash with the Y3K problem.
