Good morning crew,

Wouldn't you know it? I drove over to my health club yesterday afternoon and found it empty. Completely gutted. There were a couple guys in there tearing up carpet and I asked one of them what was going on. He jerked a thumb over his shoulder and I followed it to a sign posted on the wall. It looks like they will be remodeling the place for the next 7 weeks.

While I am not a hardcore fitness fanatic I do like to stop in to the gym a few times a week and pick up a couple dumbbells, do a few pull-ups, maybe sit down on the Thigh Master machine.

It's good for my self esteem if nothing else. Gives me a little purpose.

Now when I leave the taekwondo school every night there is nothing between me and home but four bars.

What am I going to do with my evenings?

Laugh it up,

Joe

"Whenever I dwell for any length of time on my own short-comings, they gradually begin to seem mild, harmless, rather engaging little things, not at all like the staring defects in other people's characters." --Margaret Halsey

"Since childhood is a time when kids prepare to be grown ups, I think it makes a lot of sense to completely traumatize your children. Gets 'em ready for the real world" --George Carlin

The party's host paid me a great compliment. "You are a good-looking woman," he said. "Honest--I've had only one beer."

My glow was only slightly dimmed when my husband interjected, "Imagine how great she'll look after two."

I was at the customer-service desk, returning a pair of jeans that was too tight.

"Was anything wrong with them?" the clerk asked.

"Yes," I said. "They hurt my feelings."
