Scales.


My brother and I are both at our folks' home this week and short of anything to do (including gainful employment) have taken to larking about and doing pointless things (though I spent 90 mins cleaning my car and have been invited to inteview this Friday for a decent temping role, both achieved prior to 10.00).

Anyhow, my brother who is a very similar hieght and build to me suggested we weigh ourselves and work out our BMI (a small airline, I thought?)

We are both six four and a tiny bit and we are a couple of skinny motherfuckers (as Prince once sang in a song lyric on a tune called Bob George). I am 79kgs, my brother is 81kgs; I can only put this discrepency down to his coniderably larger old chap.

In proper terms, 79kgs is a touch under 13 stone.

Anyhow, my BMI is 22.5, apparently. I am pleased I have found this out. Haven't got a Scooby what it means.

I would have thought it Body Mass Indicator.

I might be wrong as I didn't Google it.

Yeah, you are there or so...Body Mass Index, and mine isn't massive. It said I was too gangly to take part really, and should refer to a spazz mass inidicator instead.

I try to stay away from scales. They make me cry.

Oh! Well I have varied by three pounds only in about 18 years so it's indifferent to me!

All happy and well with you? How's P, how's G-Dog? :) How's America?

No severe complaints at the moment other than working 2nd job tonight. P is fine and making an appt to see an ENT about his nose. G-dog was a bit off the wall last night because of the cooler non-humid weather we were graced with for a couple days. So we are all doing well, thanks for asking. Are you enjoying your time with the family?

Time with family is nice and I am mixing relaxing duties with lots of applications for Area Manager roles. :)

I am glad that you are content.

Ha ha! A black cat and all that! And some Deja Vu.

It's me, I am the one!

Though not as big a 'one' as your elder brother, it seems...

I am surprised that particular phrase in your post was overlooked - unless of course everyone is too polite to mention it...

Indeed Bag, I thought it would register too.

Anyhow, how is the north today?
