Onward to the next course!

I'm somewhat full of figure - not vigour - myself these days, and need to put the brakes on input into my cakehole myself, but am astonished how young people eat too much, and don't exercise, these days. Then, when they get too heavy, they take to the electric cart rather than diet. In Ireland at the moment, a government reshuffle has had to take a back seat to a furore over the number of concerts faded country singer Garth Brooks is allowed at our largest stadium despite planning restrictions to protect the local residents from caterwauling. Relation to the picture? Wait a bit!! Garth has a somewhat fuller figure as he hasn't been prancing around stages for 17 years, and the Irish nation were astonished to discover this is what he eats in the mornings according to his wife's cookbook Garth's Breakfast Bowl 2 tablespoons butter 8 large eggs One 16-ounce bag frozen hash browns, such as Tater Tots, thawed 1 pound pork sausage 1 pound bacon One 9-ounce package cheese and roasted garlic tortellini 10 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated (about 2 1/2 cups) One of our comedians, commenting on Girth's ample garth, stated he should stay in in his current day job as bouncy castle in Tennessee.... Of course one of the advantages of the fuller figure is that you don't need a tripod for your Leica, just plonk it on the big investment above your belt. Douglas Who is discovering that digital photography involves a lot more sitting down than analogue.... maybe Elliot Erwitt is right. Now where's my M3? _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
