'Eat More Pie'

You can have the abs you want

if you will..

exercise

pay your gym dues

as for food be

protein wise.

@osso
nice!

I think abs are highly overrated, jjorge.
But I like the poems, though!

osso,

when your dues are paid and you’re a gym dandy
just a half-hour jog earns one bar of candy

Yes, truth be told, exercise is nice
you sweat some more, and you earn another slice

of lemon, or pumpkin, or of cherry
or chocolate cream or of blueberry,

eat candy or pie -that’s my conclusion
and do them situps

for your ab solution.

PS Hi there msolga!

If your work is done and you're free to play,
go for a walk, go catch a ray.

Working out can be a pain in the butt
dragging yourself to trim up your gut.

Tummy wants food, cookies and milk,
it deserves it, watch out for guilt.

Move around,
don't gain those pounds.

Good going osso!

No, no, I haven't captured your wit, much less in a handbasket. I just like to play and plan to learn from you. I don't meant to be obnoxiously working your posts, though I am. You have a developed oevre and verve - I'm missing the wit part, at the least on my own.

Just playing. But let me know if you don't like it.

We need George here, he's the multi-brain..

well, you are too, but you need someone besides me to eschew if you choose.





(I hope you know I' kidding)

There's room for more than one and I enjoy the company.
Wait, let move oevre.

Apropos of nothing...

'One little misplaced letter'

I was on my way to my brother's house in Blacksburg for dinner tonight.
While I was enroute, he called me and asked me to pick up a can of tomato paste and a can of chick peas. I got them of course but when I entered his house I concealed the chick peas in my jacket and gave him only the T. Paste.
The ensuing conversation:

(brother) "Hey this bag only has tomato paste. Where's the chick peas?"
(jjorge) "I couldn't get it."
(brother) "What do you mean? They have chick peas everywhere."
(jjorge) "That may be true but it was too embarrassing."
(brother) "Embarrassing?"
(jjorge) "yes, embarrassing... and, they would probably charge me a lot of money for that! ...and besides that, I didn't have a container for it, and for that matter, " what would you want THAT for anyway?
(brother) "What the hell are you talking about?"
(jjorge) "I'm talking about what you asked me to get, some chicks pee."
(brother) "#%!&#%!!

Eat more pies?
Then realize
Those thunder thighs
Need exercise!

If you do lots
Of bends and squats
Some jogs and trots --
You needn't plotz.

Just takes persistence,
moral assistance,
a little distance,
and weight resistance.

For health and beauty
It's your duty
To heed the astute-y
Sheik Yerbouti.

obscure allusions
induce confusion

but, Sheik Yerbouti?

-a beauty!

[good going George!]
