A New Pick-Me-Up

Need a damn pick-me-up, like a whole new me
Where I'm actually mobile before a quarter of three
Still can feed myself
And things don't swell
When I bend over, I swear and fart foul air

Take heart Jack, while ladies don't have this problem - well we don't show it - research has shown that "This keeps the mitochondria ticking over and allows cells to live. If this doesn’t happen, the cells die and lose the ability to regulate survival and control inflammation.” - Stay young and live long my friend...Maria :)

Everyone gets there eventually... but really I'm still healthy and spry for an old geezer! A model of sorts! LOL, I exaggerate a wee bit but still have all my senses especially the weird ones!!! XOXOX
