12/17/07 The Three B's

I turned the big 50 this year and I think that have discovered the secret to youth! The three B's; Border Collies, Braces and Bucking Horses . You are never too old to have straight teeth, at least that's what my orthodontist told me as he strapped this torture device in my mouth. Braces have been my secret weapon in loosing those stubborn pounds while looking like a teenager with wrinkles. It hurts to eat! Sedentary 50 year olds need a border collie, they do. Trust me you will be off your seat and on your feet throwing any retrievable contraption. Soggy brain muscles will also be revived developing creative games so your brilliant dog won't outsmart you. Lastly instead of a Harley try a Saddle Bronc for adventure. In re-schooling a horse that has been trained to launch humans to great heights I have found stamina and muscles I never knew I had, and an adrenalin rush I haven't felt in years. In 2008 challenge yourself , find your own three B's grab life by the horns, health is too precious a gift too waste.
