The Importance of walking Walking can add minutes to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $4,000 per month. My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60. Now he's 97 years old and we have no idea where the hell he is. ----------------------------------------- I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me. The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear heavy breathing again. -------------------------------------------------------- I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I'm doing... ------------------------------------------ I joined a health club last year, spent about 250 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there! --------------------------------------- Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise', I wash my mouth out with chocolate. ------------------------------------ I do have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them. -------------------------------------------- The advantage of exercising every day is so when you die, they'll look at you there in the coffin and say, 'Well, he looks good doesn't he.' ------------------------------------ If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country. ------------------------------------------ I know I got a lot of exercise the last few years,......just getting over the hill. We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. A ND Every time I start thinking too much about how I look, I just find a pub with a Happy Hour and by the time I leave, I look just fine. You could run this over to your friends But just e-mail it to them! It will save you the walk! THE END!
