Abstract

As a lean, mean geezer machine, I have managed to keep my boyish figure all these years by strictly adhering to Zezima's First Rule of Physical Fitness: Exercise and health food will kill you. That's why my regimen is limited to 12-ounce curls, which are performed with bottles containing corn, hops, barley, water and other healthful ingredients; the avoidance of all vegetables except, of course, myself; and a daily glass of red wine, which is, according to my doctor, over-the-counter heart medicine.
