Good Health Infromation!! Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it. Don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap. Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables? A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these. Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass, a green leafy vegetable. And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable slop. Q: Is beer or wine bad for me? A: Look, it goes to the earlier point about fruits and vegetables. As we all know, scientists divide everything in the world into three categories: animal, mineral, and vegetable. We all know that beer and wine are not animal or mineral, so that only leaves one thing, right? My advice: Have a burger and a beer and enjoy your vegetables. Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio? A: Well, if you have a body, and you have body fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc. , Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain. . . Good. Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you? A: You're not listening. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you? Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle? A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach. Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: Are you crazy? HELLO . Cocoa beans. another vegetable!!! "It's the best feel-good food around!" Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets. Have a cookie. . . -------------------------------------------- Giggle for healthy life From: GigglePedia. com

A Lutheran church pastor is trying to shake things up during his sermons by talking about sex.

A red-eared slider turtle is reported to be doing fine after it spent nearly ten minutes in the belly of a golden retriever. The incident happened last week when Bella the dog, mistakenly or mischievously, gulped down Pepper the turtle from the bathtub it was placed in by 12-year-old Shelby Terihay. The mischief was discovered by Shelby's father, Todd Terihay, when he saw Bella standing inside the bathtub in which Pepper was placed along with its four fellows. At the sight of Todd, the dog hopped out of the tub smacking her lips. A quick count of turtles revealed that Pepper was missing.

A Maine farmer has almost given up his efforts to corral a donkey he bought two months ago at an auction. Tranquilizers, a luring date and even a horse whisperer have so far failed to persuade Jenny the donkey to make a comeback since she fled the corral, presumably in search for her lost love. Joe Varricchio, the co-owner of the farm called "Mary Gardens," bought Jenny from an auction thinking its presence in the farm would ward off predators like fox, coyotes and raccoons that have been snatching 50 to 60 hens a year. But his hopes were diluted when the freedom-minded equine eluded the farm just two weeks after and since then Varricchio's every effort to corral her have failed.
