The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 09, 2023

Like many of us, Ted’s days of running are long past.

Take a walk on the wild side, Ted.

never made so far as Amuk, but visted Port Moresby once

Baby steps uncle Ted. I learned a long time ago the treadmill at the gym is now for brisk walks only. I have a knee injury from many years back; overall it’s fine, but if I overdo it the knee tends to swell to twice its size.

I’m cool, calm and collected. I don’t have the energy for anything else these days.

I go to Amazon and let my fingers go amuck.

Or like the chorus of that Toby Keith song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldQrapQ4d0Y) “I ain’t as good as I once was; but I’m as good, once, as I ever was!”

I had Runamuck as a kid. Not as cool a Transformer as you’d think, to be honest.

Is Uncle Ted talking about speed walking or walking nude? Rut Roo.

Is Uncle Ted from the planet Vulcan. Run amok time and you too can live long and prosper.

going crazy at your own pace. ;)

I remember when “The Birds” would come on T.V. back in the early 70’s. The T.V. guide described the movie as “Alfred Hitchcock’s chilling tale as to what might happen should our fine feathered friends run amuck.” One of those weird memories that has stuck with me!

Only when Ted is undergoing pon farr.

Now I hear Footloose by Kenny Loggins…

I presume run amuck means to run amok in a really dirty mud puddle?

Be sure to wear your galoshes when walking in muck.

I like to stroll amuck.

I either “doodder” or “shuffle” amuck, depending on the mood my arthritis takes on a given day.

Just because we are older doesn’t mean we don’t really enjoy life. Truth be known, I think we enjoy it more. We, however, are usually not subject to or follow, modern trends. Party on……

Uncle Ted is a wild man!!!

Walking amuck…..interesting?

Uncle Ted knows his limits. I am surprised at Brutus – it of sounds like he is considering running amuck himself. That is hard to picture. Would he skip a tie one day or wear fashion socks? Leave his hat at home?

Only Brutus Thornapple would consider two marshmallows in his hot chocolate instead of just one, as “running amuck.”

Certainly beats crawling amuck.

I cut lose too, but I try not to do around other people.

The reality here though…. is that the “AMUCK” still happens! That is GOOD! Whether fast or slow, is relatively speaking, immaterial, IMO. I personally have as a 2023 goal to “AMUCK” more than I have the last few years.

Right on Uncle Ted….like the old bull and the young bull going up the hill to…..!!! (All of them, not just one)

Sarah Sanderson (Sarah Jessica Parker)

i tried walking amok once, but i banged my shin…

Walking in muck is hard work…

Reason #146 that I don’t have a pet. You have to get up early every morning to walk a muck.

Yea, Uncle Ted! I can do a fast walk but running is not something I do anymore.
