NOTE FROM FRAN:
It’s been widely reported that George W. Bush is seriously
committed to fitness — somehow he makes time in his busy
schedule to run and lift weights nearly every day.
So we thought we’d present some of his thoughts
on staying healthy:


The Top 8 Fitness
Tips from the President


8> “My position on physical fitness is that I believe we should all be fit, irregardless of race, creed, or colorization.”

7> “Be sure to brush and floss every day or you could get ginji… jingi… jinjijivi… ROTTEN GUMS!”

6> “We’ve heard a lot of ill-advice today about toxins and polluterants in the nation’s water, of which you should drink eight glasses of every day.”

5> “A shredded Bill of Rights makes a super-duper source of dietary fiber.”

4> “OK, let’s do five on the right…now five on the le– right…and five more on the right! Five on the… the right!! Right!! Right!!!!!”

3> “Overbesity and sedentarianism are making up an evil axis undermining America’s strength and freedom — let’s gotta SMOKE ‘EM OUT!”

2> “You can’t expect Medicare to pay for debilitation and old age which you could prevent by fitness.”

and the Number 1 Fitness Tip from the President…

1> “Always warm up for a few minutes before stretching the truth.”
