*Subject: EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 40

**Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty
of room at each side.

With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out
from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach
a full minute, and then relax.

Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit
longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks. Then try
50-lb potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can
lift a 100-lb potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight
for more than a full minute. (I'm at this level.) *

*After you feel confident at that level, *
**
*put a potato in each of the sacks.*


Finally, a new joke. And it's a funny one.

I'm going to send this to all my friends today. Especially those who
overate at yesterday's Thanksgiving banquets.
