Transcript:
Dad: "I'm gonna start working out" Mom: "I think I've heard this before" Dad: "I mean it. Know what's motivating me?" Mom: "The mirror? Your pants?" Dad: "Our son getting engaged. We may have a grandchild soon. That means lifting, crawling, climbing, running... I need to get in shape for all that. I want to be a FUN grandpa!" Dad: "Think I'll knock out a couple dozen push-ups right now" Dad: "UNGHHHH! one. UNGHHHH!" Dad: "It's also fun when a grandpa just sits and reads to his grandchild..." Mom: "Yes, it is"

Appears that now is not a good time for Nancy to engage Frank in any âhanky â pankyââŠ^He missed out on a workoutâŠ.

Also adding these songs to the Kinks (in view of Frankâs pre-emptive enthusiasm for ânatural consequencesâ of B&Ts upcoming wedding-wink winkm and his desire to get in shape):

Itâs not just what you do, Frank; itâs repetitions, and right now you look about to pass out. Start slow. Build up. Donât give up. Nancy, it wouldnât hurt for you to join inâŠ.

For a second there, I thought that was Mr. Wilson from âDennis the Menace"^^Mr Wilson never wore glasses, other than reading glasses, and is about 100lbs heavier

Frank, youâll never be the âfunâ anything. This kid is going to have enough problems as it is, with Dad Brad.

Iâm a girl and I can do way more than 1 âboyâ push-up.Maybe you should go back to Girl push-ups, Frank.

We have some very educated, very respectable, very congenial folk there⊠â We have fellow posters here who represent NC very well! I also have family from there, and during my travels to there, it was quite the refreshment! It was as if there was a time warp anomaly, and people were more easygoing and mannerly⊠it was a refreshing change of pace coming from the âmadnessâ of the general major metropolitan areaâŠ

Gotta love how when people get married the first thing their parents think about is grandkids.
JayBluE over 11 years ago
Itâs Sunday, Donny⊠lots going on, family day, etc⊠nice day to take it slow, even⊠â Also quite possible that some are doing what my wife and I are, enjoying the NFLâŠ. thought Iâd take a quick peek, hereâŠ

When you have grandkids living with you, thereâs no time to exercise between running after them and keeping them off your computer and out of the cracker drawer and off the table and in their high chairs while you feed them and changing diapers and trying to get them to nap.

âYou Better Run,â by The RascalsâJump (For Your Love),â by The Pointer Sistersâ 1) Would like to add âYou Better Runâ by Pat Benatar (was also a hit for her when the PB band covered itâŠ), and also âRun Run Awayâ by Firefall2) Title is Jump (For My Love) by PSs..Interestingly, they were going to leave it as âJumpâ but had to add the line from the song to make the title, as Van Halen also had âJumpâ in the same year, 1984/85âŠ.

Iâm now 76 and still very fit (working out with weights to stay strong) but I enjoyed reading to the grandkids (I have 6 from my 4 kids) when I could catch them while they were the reading to age. The last vaca. they did a lot of tubing (I watched from the shade- I wonât even use my pool in bright sun) not good for the skin! I am planning next trip to include some biking and zip-gliding (I almost signed up for a local pkg for practice â but zip and rappelling were OK; the high âleap of faithâ is something I do NOT choose to do -least of all with strangers).
JayBluE over 11 years ago
Mayberry, NCâŠ.. hmmâŠ. I donât know about thatâŠ. wonât work⊠JK, Lol!â And even in the larger cities, there is the mix of metro living, but yet also very mannerly, and not rushing everywhere or knocking people over⊠was just outside of Wilmington, NC (40 min. away from Myrtle Beach, SC) and even at the Wal-Mart and the malls and Shopping Centers, it was very calmâŠ. and oddly many that Iâve met there (apart from any family) all came from up north, and in particular, my neck oâ the woodsâŠ

I have a heck of a time balancing on a bike for whatever reason, so I rely on my Irish Setter to take me for a walk/run every day. Maybe Frank should take Puddles for a walk everyday and slowly work up to riding a bike or running or even push-ups⊠;)

There are other forms of exercise appropriate to the bedroom, Frank. Real calorie burners, too.
