As Chauncey Depew said: “I get my exercise acting as a pallbearer to my friends who exercise.”Look him up, he was born in 1834 and died 18 days short of 94 years old in 1928. Not bad for a guy who didn’t exercise!! At one time, the President of the New York Central Railroad.
And then there was the distinguished physician Dr. Logan Clendening who said: “Faddists are continually proclaiming the value of exercise; four people out of five are more in need of rest than exercise.”
my granpappy was 96 years old…and he worked in his garden twice a day,,,until he got arrested for the " lettuce " he was growing in his garden…….he got 10 years in prison…he will be out next week on 7 years good behavior……….

The thought of broccoli depresses me.Exercise helps some.Naked blondes make me happy.

I like all vegies, including broccoli, except avocado. Now, I suppose, someone will inform me that avocado isn’t a vegetable.
