Topic: For my fab over 50 chordie Friends.

Exercise for People Over 50

(really, try this)

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of
room at each side. With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms
straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can.

Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that
you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks. Then try 50-lb
potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb
potato sack in each hand and hold your arms out straight for more than a full
minute. (I'm at this level.)

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks.

lol dont ya just love when at this stage of life, you don't give a hoot! lol

Well!! except for the weather that is!

Love it!
Thanks for the good chuckle to start my day - the extent of my grand ambitions for the day is to get some house trim power washed and prepped for painting (if the weather holds).  James

Re: For my fab over 50 chordie Friends.

I had that forwarded to me in an email...laughed my ass off!

But seriously, I think this thread is a form of "agism"...don't you think us pups who are still wet behind the ears wouldn't enjoy good humor?

Re: For my fab over 50 chordie Friends.

A boy asks his granny, 'Have you seen my pills, they were labeled
LSD?'
Granny replies, stuff the pills, have you seen the  size of the dragons in the
kitchen?!'

--------------------------------------------

Little Billy asks his dad for a telly in his room. Dad reluctantly
agrees
Next day Billy comes downstairs and asks,'Dad, what's love juice?'
Dad looks horrified and tells Billy all about sex.
Billy just sat there with his mouth open in amazement.
Dad says : 'So what were you watchin'?'
Billy says, 'Wimbledon.'

Another good one Old Doll.

Here's a little humor for the under 50 crowd...a little political but I still found it funny, and sad all at the same time...
