Walking can add many minutes to your life. This enables you at 85 years of age, to spend an additional five months in a  nursing home at $5,000 per month.
I like long walks, especially when taken by people who annoy me.
My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now, she's 97 years old and we don't know in creation where she is.
The only reason I would take up exercising is so I could hear heavy breathing again.
I joined a health club last year, spent about $400 and haven't lost a pound. Apparently, you have to go there!
I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them. I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.
If you are going to take up cross-country skiing, start with a small country.
The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.
And last but not least: I don't exercise because it makes the ice jump out of my glass!

In a small town way out in the country, a local farmer invited the new rector and his wife to come out to the farm for supper. While the women were finishing preparations in the kitchen, the men talked in the living room. The farmer was in the middle of telling the rector that because he was sure that most ministers liked chicken, that's what he had asked his wife to prepare. The farmer's son, playing nearby, spoke up and said, "But I thought it was "buzzard," not chicken that we were eating today." Of course not, where did you ever get that idea? demanded the farmer. "Well, I overheard you telling mommy that we ought to hurry up and have the 'old buzzard' for dinner and get it over with."
