WHAT IS YOUR EXCERSISE REGIME?

 

“What is your exercise regime?”

I was asked by my new personal trainer

I said if I already had a regime

I wouldn’t need a personal trainer

MIDDLE AGED EXERCISE

 

I have found in middle age

When I’m exercising

The best one for my core

Seems to be keeping a fart in

QUASIMODO OF NOTRE DAME

 

Quasimodo of Notre Dame

Who loved Esmerelda

Always had a hunch

He needed to see a doctor

THE MATHEMATICIAN PONDERED

 

The mathematician pondered

When he opened the oven door

What the value of pi would be

After being dropped on the floor

MY WIFE AND I ARE BOTH

 

My wife and I are both

In our late 50s for sure

I’m fast approaching 59

And she’s just turned 64

OH HOW THEY ALL CRUELLY SCOFFED

 

Oh how they all cruelly scoffed

When I said that I would one day

Learn the secret of invisibility

If they could only see me now, eh
