Gym day. I've been a member of an old school gym here for at least a decade. More a family place with two pools, basketball courts, and racquetball. This Fall Golds Gym went out of business and as a courtesy my gym picked up their members for the remainder of their contracts. What a different crowd. The steroid troopers. String shirts, backwards hats, and gold jewelry. This morning two young guys were flexing and taking selfies in the locker room mirror. A crusty old guy stops and asks, "You guys want me to take some pictures of you together?" I couldn't help it and just busted up which got me an "F u Homie". Probably slashed tires on my car within a few days too. Good times. 40 min lifting and an hour hard run.

My life's motto has always been, What's the point of being ripped if you ain't gonna flaunt it.

Obviously.

They had to post signs around the gym that say no foul language allowed.
