I'm just back from working out at
Wellness the Sugarhouse clinic. Today was the second day this week I
made the clinic since I was released to physical activity Tuesday. I
have to admit that I really like going to Wellness not so much for
the physical Workout but for the Association I have with a number of
the folks who come to Wellness..
One of those guys is an old fart named
Tony. Tony is even older than I and It looks remarkably well and good
for a guy his age. I don't know what brought Tony to Wellness but he
is probably been going longer than I. He could be a stroke, head
injury or something but not sure but as I said he's quite a
character. He's one of these guys who yammer's a lot seems to try to
make time with all the girls/female physical therapist and anyone
else he can engage. Sometimes he wears you out but is always, at
least for me, enjoyable to talk to. His only business last summer
that I got to know a little of his background. I still not all that
sure but he had one time worked pretty heavily in the motion picture
industry. Did something in the background keeping things straight or
something. Whatever it was, he seems to know everybody in the older
industry, not so much the new Titans but the old Titans for sure.
Even has his name on the number of credits for the amount of movies
he has lost count on. I'm amazed/impressed with Tony.
Howard is another old guy who tends to
hang with our group. Howard is really interesting. Knows wear shorts
and he's older than I am excited been through the ringer couple
times. Howard is from the East Coast and it looks the part. Yours has
interesting tidbits but are discussing anything New York or the 50s
and 60s. He called himself an old Jew – – nonpracticing. Howard
has graduated From University, Which one I do not know. He's
definitely been around the block and I don't know what his disability
is although he is pretty high functioning. Do not see evidence of
head injury are cerebral trauma of any kind. I think just bad
bone/back kind of stuff.
Then there is Mark, actually there are
a couple Marks: Mark K and March K. I call him Kirk because that's
his last name and helps differentiate when all Marks are on the
floor. Kirk has had some stenosis issues. Is older than I said quite
a life. He small stature is headed back fused really has to rely on
other folks to get by similar to me. Kirk often helps me with
pillows, setting weights and other things around the gym I cannot do
or get to. Is okay for the posse. Kendall is the other Mark. I think
I've written about him before. When I first met Kendall I thought he
was intellectually impaired but I enjoy talking to and Was impressed
to find it actually had a career janitorial services at the Veterans
Administration. I've not seen a lot of Kendall recently. For some
reason Kendall hates Tony works his schedule around when he thinks
Tony will not be in the gym, so I rarely see him anymore.
So this about posse the guys I work out
with. They are a good bunch of guys My wish I knew better. I think I
can get them together is coming Monday or Wednesday see if I can get
a picture of us all that would be fun. Until then I am just using
this picture of Tony, I call I his Frankenstein pose. It may not be
nice but somehow it fits.
