Exercise......... Is it good for you?

[ramesh]

1. It is well documented that for every mile that you jog,
you add one minute to your life. This enables you at 85 years old
to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $5,000 per
month.

2. My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she
was 60. She's 97 now and we don't know where she is.

3. The only reason I would take up jogging is so that I
could hear heavy breathing again.

4. I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks.
Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to show up.

5. I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain
figures out what I'm doing.

6. I don't exercise at all. If God meant us to touch our
toes, he would have put them further up on our body.

7. I like long walks, especially when they are taken by
people who annoy me.

8. I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers
them.

9. The advantage of exercising every day is that you die
healthier.

10. If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with
a small country.

11. I don't jog, it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.
