“There is no such thing as a small miracle. A gym is a place of miracles where people do things they once thought impossible- lifting heavier, squeezing out one more rep, finding discipline and willpower they didn’t know they had. They’re amazed at how good they feel and look and carry their new power into the world. This is the miracle I wanted to give to the world.”

~Joe Wieder~

And... just a little poem for fun....
A pretty bird with a pretty bill landed on my window sill
I let him in with a piece of bread
And then I smashed his stupid head

(My dad taught me that when I was very small... probably 2 or 3. I used to go EVERYWHERE with him and when we'd go places just for kicks he would tell people that i had a poem and have me recite it. Funny stuff.)

Oh.. and LaReina just for you...

I see your hiney
Its kind of shiny
You'd better hide it
Before I bite it

LOL! Anybody else reading this thread is going to think i've completely lost it.

"Don't let the ignorance of others get you down. Life's too short to get mad at those who don't understand."

~Unless I accidentally infringed some copyright, I said that

I have a poem, too.

Haikus are easy.
But sometimes they don't make sense.
Refrigerator!

Oh I'm totally losing it. My coworkers are questioning my mental stability today... I'm questioning it also.

Did you remember to wear pants? Just take a quick peek and double check. I mean, if you're mixing up the shampoo and conditioner...

Yes. I made sure to take a good long look in the mirror this morning before i came to work.

Somebody please give this woman a piece of bread or something, before she starts biting peoples behinds!!!!

Oh yeah, my favorite quotes:

"Success doesn't come to you, you go to it"

and...."It's not the size or the speed, but the will to succeed that makes a true athlete" - (I made that one up )

I like that quote!

I won't bite anybodys butt. I'm totally in control. Just ate some nice bland chicken so i'm good to go for atleast another few hours.

I've heard of butt biting before. There was a story some years ago, about a person with a slight mental problem, who was on a planned day out one day, being supervised, but unfortunately he'd been not cuffed or restrained in any way and whilst at a small lake, he sneaked over to a babies pram, and bit baby on the bottom .

Fortunately, the babies nappy prevented any hurt, but the people who had him in their care were criticised for failings in his supervision.

I think the parents didn't sue fortunately.

As for Haiku's you could try this.

I once wrote a Haiku.

It did not have any sentient structure.

I still wrote it anyway.



Also, another piece of eloquent poetry.

There was a stage athlete who was carb deprived,

The lack of carbs made her look boss eyed,

She practically hadn't the energy to move.

But at least her Quads were fullsome and smooth.

I like it! Bossman you've got some real talent in the poem-writing department.

Someone came on a website,

The folks were all quite mad,

Swanso had his soapbox,

And Packard's like your Dad.


Les kept quietly waffling,

Cassie was going insane,

Vamp just found it baffling.

The loonies were at it again.


The Boss wrote random spoutings,

That filtered from his Brain.

It's like those old school outings.

You'd never go on again.


Yes the loonies ruled the Asylum.

All day, and every night.

But as long as you don't rile 'em.

You'll probably be alright.

"When we seek money or a good relationship or a great job, what we are really seeking is happiness. The mistake we make is not going for the happiness first. If we did, everything else would follow." ~Deepak Chopra

There once were some folks
who never ate their yolks.
Egg whites it was for many,
Cassie ate plenty...but I didn't have any.

LOL!!!

Oatmeal and Eggwhites

I love oatmeal
Oh yes I do
I love my oatmeal
and my eggwhites too

I love them together
All steamy and hot
oatmeal and eggwhites
I love them alot

I like to add cinnamon
And sometimes berries
oatmeal and eggwhites
make me feel merry

I eat mine in a red bowl
bought just for this meal
oatmeal and eggwhites
this breakfast is ideal

Complex carbs and lean protein
a breakfast for winners
I love them so much
I also eat them for lunch and dinner
