IF MY BODY WERE A CAR... If my body were a car, this is the time I would be
thinking about trading it in for a newer model.
I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and
my paint job is getting a little dull ...
but that's not the worst of it.
My headlights are out of focus
and it's especially hard to see
things up close.
My traction is not as graceful
as it once was as I slip and slide
and skid and bump into things
even in the best of Weather.
My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins
and it takes me hours to reach
my maximum speed.
My fuel rate burns inefficiently.
But here's the worst of it --
Almost every time I sneeze, cough
or laugh... either my radiator leaks
or my exhaust backfires!!

Linda - I am truly sorry for posting this without your consent. I received this in an email quite a few months ago and had saved it for sharing at another time. (Without your copyright of course) I had figured it was one of those email scanning the globe that would be okay to post.
If you would rather have it removed, please contact me and I will do that promptly.
Thank you for the laugh, and your talent has not gone without notice. On a lighter note, I will be checking out your blog soon. Please advise if you would like me to remove it.
