Being an old fart and winter do not mix well. This morning headed out to get my hair cut, appointments only. Thînk a full head of hair is my last old age attribute (LOL).

This morning -14 F, wind chill -30 F. Snow only another 6-inches. Slipped and skidded to get hair cut. Pissed me off as I was leaving the salon, after a wonderful facial, was crossing a street to get back to my Camaro parked in plowed snow. A car coming out of a parking lot signaled me to walk in front of him (nice Canadians). I twisted my ankle crossing the street and pain. Had a flashback...2001 Qatar. 2001 Qatar had a lease car and it broke down in the desert. Got out of the car, twisted my ankle, tried to get up, ankle twisted again, passed out in the extreme heat. Only reason I lived a nice Arab guy saw me laying in front on my auto, picked me up and took me to hospital emergency. I was in a coma for 3 days. So when I sprained my ankle today on a side street in the snow thought if I can not get up and walk, I might die in the artic cold.

Anyone wanting to loose weight consider this. I tried gyms and health clubs for years to keep my weight in check. A recumbent bike helped me. This is something you can have at home, buy on the internet. I used it for 45 mins. a day, three days a week. Followed workout with a protein drink. Dropped 20 pounds in 4 months and did not have to change my diet.
