He allowed as how that was true.<br /><br />My response was something along the lines of "Well then, given my druthers, I'm going to die of a medium-rare steak and a cold beer, amid the company of friends."<br /><br />We now have an "understanding".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-61409289434626740692012-03-24T19:02:04.654-04:002012-03-24T19:02:04.654-04:00Eat right, exercise, die anyway.

Watch what ...Diet and exercise, diet and exercise! Watch what you eat, or you won't live to be a 110 year old bed ridden pain in the ass to everyone <i>old man in an old folks home</i> who wants a bourbon and branch water but who gets prune juice and cream of wheat, served up by a sweet young thing that tries to blow sunshine up your butt seven days out of seven, but who won't come close enough to you to get her fanny pinched. Doesn't that sound like a nice life?<br /><br />But if you don't follow your diet, you won't have that. Instead, you'll fall over at 87 of a massive coronary at a bar somewhere, sipping your bourbon and enjoying the company of the men around you. You don't want that, do you?<br /><br />It is now 2:53. I haven't had lunch yet, so I'm going down to the bar and have a drink and a sandwich. Maybe another drink to finish off.Mad Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190137186843630543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-71270683984301581422012-03-24T13:20:02.252-04:002012-03-24T13:20:02.252-04:00Savory Oatmeal.

So he couldn't have your oatmeal breakfast, but what he gains in sausage he loses by not getting crackers and cheese, or toast and jam with his tea.On a Wing and a Whimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754595334684845895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-64195326464957866832012-03-24T10:32:32.384-04:002012-03-24T10:32:32.384-04:00Yeah it does, trust me...
