I feel stronger at age 82, and have far less health issues now than I had at age 57. Smartest thing I did in my life was to give up my well paying job at 57 and take up playing golf 5 days a week. Not only my blood sugar stabilized, blood pressure stabilized, panic attacks went away, but even more amazing to me is my hip joint pain disappeared. That is what walking 30 miles a week on a hilly golf course (Orchard Hills country club in Washougal, WA) does to the body. Now I quit golf after moving to Florida, and it is daily exercise on treadmill & weight machines in the community gym.

I kid you not, I have new muscles which I never had. And I am now convinced, old age should not make you weak, feeble and lose balance. That daily exercise is a miracle which no doctor ever clued me in. I am looking forward to posting my exercise video on my 100th birthday, if I do not get lazy and quit the gym routine.


Awesome post. Makes me a little less worried about starting a small farm at age 56 (not my only source of income though).

The daily exercise is half the reason I'm doing this. My employment type is very sedentary work.

All on board for war. By declaring war or something close it gives them the power they all crave, suspend the constitution, martial law, gun confiscation, control of the financial system and the food supply. I think we are headed down this road

The US wanted a proxy war in Syria. I guess they have one in Ukraine. Otherwise I can’t really see why what happens in Ukraine is our problem.

I sure as hell ain’t for Putin or Biden. So my care o’ meter is on zero.

We’re trying to avoid WWIII by taking sides in a foreign conflict rather than remain nuetral?

To be fair he has to look like he’s doing something that legitimately condemns the invasion (or he loses his globalist credentials). Of course, being the first (and perhaps last) president to start a war that could end in a nuclear exchange is something I’m sure he wants to avoid.

Not only Trump ... we had 8 years of the demonkraps calling Reagan a war-monger who needed to be kept away from the nuclear button. There was even a music video in the 1980s of a puppet representing an absentminded Reagan waking up and reaching over from the bed and pushing the nuclear button.

“...oh the irony ... oh the freaking irony.”

We have a very dangerous situation here, and the media is in on it but the liars that they are, off camera they are filling their shorts.

He wants to talk tough but do nothing except blame Putin to provide him cover for all of his domestic and international failures. I am waiting (crickets) for a “reporter” to ask him why he has not brought this crisis to the leftists’ favorite UN? Heck, H.W and Jr were bullied into going to the UN before and after their wars.

To make the stock market go all the democrats have to say is “We will drill everywhere here in the USA and export oil”.

They will never say that.

Just remember to increase physical activity gradually. I always remind myself, I am not training for Olympics. At my age it takes longer for injuries to heal. The old body does not need to be stressed. Regular activity is far more beneficial than stressful activity.

Biden said that Western nations were showing restraint in an attempt to avoid starting World War III.

Another Biden daily BS report his stupidity and weakness is what started it all.
If Trump was still president none of this chaos would be going on.
The price of rigged elections comes with a huge price foe all.
