Be Fit Wii-th Biray
In early May, I convinced my parents to buy a Nintendo Wii (finally!). And after pestering my dad to play a game with me after dinner one night, I ended up getting my ass seriously whooped in a virtual tennis match by someone who twice my age! I knew right then and there, my fitness skills were doing me no good in this arena.
I came across this comic and it reminded me of a conversation I had with Alasdair when he came here for his 3-week visit to US in April. He had worried that his Wii-Fit would also reprimand him upon his return back to Scotland. I’m sure he’ll appreciate the humor in this cartoon.
Although I still don’t have a Wii-Fit (yet), my name is on several waiting-lists and hopefully some 17-year-old kid from GameStop will call me when one shows up at his store. (I’m not holding my breath, though.) In the meantime, I’ll just focus on practicing my virtual backhand swing. Next time I play against my dad, he won’t even see the ball coming!

I invited my family and friends to gyminee and nobody accepted. My youngest brother is a runner, he got his hip replaced this spring. My younger brother is a golfer. My younger sister is a gym addict, blogger, social networker. And my folks really need to walk more. One person in the office said she was interested, but then nothing happened. A navy buddy called to say he & his roommate just got an expensive treadmill and could I tell him how long to walk on it? He loves surfing the internet… but would not join me at gyminee. Thank god for new friends.
