 at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $5000 per month. 
My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she's 97 years old and we don't know where the hell she is.  The only reason I would take up exercising is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.  I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there. 
I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.  I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me..  I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.  The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.  If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.. 
And last but not least: I don't exercise because it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.  You could run this over to your friends but why not just e-mail it to them!  http://www.davidicke.com/icke/thoughts/newyears.html     |
