I’m not so naive to think that I’ll win any Handsome Hunk of the Year Honors, at my age, no matter how much I improve my currently poor level of physical fitness. (I’ve hinted to my wife that she should think of me as a real “hunk” in the making. She seems to think the word “chunk” is more appropriate.)
But today, I read a news story on an Internet site that a major manufacturer of fitness equipment has launched a campaign that’s a “Search for the Best Calves” — and they don’t mean baby cattle. They’re inviting people to send them pictures of their lower leg muscles, i.e., their calves. The whole idea, I guess (my calves are so riddled with near-varicose veins I hate to look at them myself), is to crown some fitness fanatic as having the best calves in the world??
If you’re seriously interested in the “contest,” and have an urge to show off your calves, look for the contest on Google or some other search engine. I failed to find a link for it to include here. But I have been getting out for regular brisk walks more this week. Important to work on those old calves, I guess.
Moo.
