1. That farm boy standing next to the feed bin did more work before
breakfast than you do all week at the gym.


Good point. Americans spend billions every year going to gyms to make themselves workout. Hiking, climbing, cleaning the garage, planting a garden, volunteering to build a trail, there are lots of more interesting forms of physical activity than the gym.

After my one brief encounter with the world of fitness gyms, I decided it was nutz to drive to the gym for exercise. I'd be better off walking to the gym from my house and walking back home without going inside. The power walking as workout is better, it takes the same amount of time, and the price is right.
