You’re gonna get hit

Taking risks is risky. So is playing it safe.

 

Running yesterday, from an old white pickup truck full of construction workers on the opposite side came a shout from across the highway, “You’re gonna get hit.”

A smile came to the face, and peace filled the spirit. We can also say that driving increases our chances of being involved in a highway accident. Flying increases our odds of a plane crash (some people never fly because of this pervasive fear).

We could also have a serious health accident from high blood pressure, poor cholesterol, and so on.

Pick our poison, eh?

Yesterday…

Me: Would you like to go to lunch for some chicken nuggets (Chick-fil-A reference)?

Friend: No, I have pop tarts. I need to lose 20 pounds.

Me: Pop tarts?

Friend: Yeah, I’ve gained 20 pounds in the past year.

Me: (can’t recall the rest of the conversation because we quickly moved on because we were both pressed for time)

I probably said some dumb thing like “the new pop-tart diet, eh?”

Friend: I’m taking your approach.

Me: Huh?

Friend: Began with one push up a day for a week and each week I’ve added one more push up per day.

Me: That’s great. How long have you been doing that?

Friend: Twelve weeks.

Me: So you’re doing 12 push ups a day?

Friend: Yes.

The skinny guy said something we rarely hear, but somehow can’t disagree with

Yo, you, yeah, the 2nd from left in front row, pay attention

 

The skinny guy, late 50’s, said something we rarely hear, but somehow can’t disagree with.

He said, “I’m down to 183. You know the last time I weighed 183? I was 20 years old.”

“And you know”, he continued, “they say what we weighed when we were 20 is probably our ideal weight.”

If this is true, it’s time for me (front row, 2nd from left) to drop 15 pounds.
