Good morning crew,

Ok, NOW I over-did it. Since I felt fine the day after my first workout in four years I figured my body was still 20-years-old, so I went back the next day (yesterday) and did a full circuit of bench press, military press, curls, tricep press down, squats and ab crunches. That is after swimming a thousand yards.

This morning it was a little hard to get out of bed...or brush my teeth...or lift my arms over my head to put a T-shirt on, or bend over to tie my shoes, or breathe.

But, I have read that beer makes an excellent muscle relaxant. So I think I will do some research tonight to see if that is true.

Laugh it up,

Joe

Many people hold down two jobs, so I wasn't surprised when my hairdresser mentioned to me that he also worked part-time at the race track. "That's interesting," I said. "What do you do?"

As he finished styling my hair, he replied, "I groom horses."

"Do you remember first meeting your wife?"

"Sure, I found Jill lying face down in the gutter. I lifted her to her feet and promised her that if she agreed to marry me, she would begin a new life and I'd never allow her near the gutter again."

"Wow, what an incredible story! I hope she appreciates what you did for her."

"Not really. Even though she stunk at it, Jill hated to give up bowling."
