SOME GUY'S GYM

Across the street from my palatial new apartment is Glenn's Gym. I'm too new here to know whether this is a commercial establishment or a workout room that Glenn's really proud of. Comes under the heading of Moot Point with me, of course, since 'gym', like 'jail', is a place I would only go under duress. Both of them feature sweaty males flexing stuff and wishing me harm. It might take the gym guys a while longer to wish me harm, but take my word for it, they would eventually wish me harm. That's just the way sweaty males are. For all I know, sweaty females may wish me harm too, but I rarely get the opportunity to test that thesis. At any rate, Glenn's Gym will remain just a pretty façade to me.

Congrats on the palatial new apartment. Gyms with color coordinated facades are not to be trusted. A proper gym has a warped steel door, a dark staircase and stinks even from the street. This one looks like it probably has track lighting and air conditioning. Keep to your side of the street, I say. And if you see a bar of soap on the sidewalk, don't lean over to pick it up.

On the other hand, maybe they'd be nice. And maybe you'd get a nice mood enhancer from the exercise.

Howbout pictures of the new apartment? We'd love to come see it and bring a housewarming present. What's your favorite kind of kitten?

Kittens? I don't need no stinking kittens. And no pictures until it shapes up.
