Topic: Skinny & Ageless

Joined a gym today
such a strange thing to do
cause my T shirts to tight
and my old jeans are too
well i may not have muscles
or even tatoos
but i`ve got a belly
thats giving me the blues
when i get skinny
take years off my age
maybe get fit
to turn a new page
so if you don`t recognize me
when next we meet
i`ll be that blurrrrrrr
sprinting down your street

GOOD ONE -  A GUY IN MY TOWN ABOUT MY AGE MADE A HUGE EFFORT TO GET FIT - RAN EVERY DAY - MILES - TO GET IN SHAPE JUST AS HE WAS ABOUT FIT - HIS KNEES WORE AND AND ENDED UP HAVING TO HAVE SURGERY  AND NOW HE CAN RUN NO MORE.

I THINK IT WAS RUSSELL ON HERE THAT USED TO SAY - GETTING OLD AIN'T FOR SISSYS !
i USED TO GET MUSTARD ON MY SHOES WHEN I ATE HOT DOGS, NOW I JUST GET IT ON MY SHIRT HALFWAY DOWN  smile

GOOD ONE EB

Re: Skinny & Ageless

Good One EB.  In my effort to support gender equality  in my feminist, psychoanalytical way I have decided to keep my pregnant belly look. Not only does this show my  solidarity with those who are pregnant but it brings out my feminine side  while exercising my arm muscles lifting pints with not only my right but left hand to keep in shape. That last line sprinting down the street must be a reference  I guess about you getting  chased down the street by female  groupies mesmerized by your new physique developed after going to the gym.
