What can you get a leg up on?



In response to last week’s question, “What can you get a leg up on?",  my business collaboration friend Andy replied, "A horse of course."  My horse riding friend Royce added, "It's an equestrian expression meaning that you are getting a leg up on your horse. Damn. A legitimate non-wise ass reply."  And my horse owning friend Jodie continued, "My Harley Horse! But I don't need one. He's very good about sideling up to things so I can 
get on him easily."

My friend Richard observed, "Well, you have to get your leg up on the hurdles if you run track. Otherwise you’ll fall and break your nose."

My dad's beach buddy Bob noted, "A fence if you raise it high enough, but at my age the hamper in the living room will do."   My business collaboration friend Mark then related, "For me it is more an issue of what I can get a leg down on...it seems more challenging every day to get a leg down on the floor in the morning. Then the other one. The older I get, the harder it seems to get out of bed."

My birthday bud Jon wrote, "A tripod.  Three times."  And my cycling friend Ted shared, "Oh I can think of lots of things, but I will keep it clean. So let's just say my bicycle!"

Please share your thoughts about "things that make you go 'Hmmm' “:

Is there mandatory volunteerism?  (in honor of our national day of service honoring Dr Martin Luther King)

Life  is too short for drama and petty things, so kiss slowly, laugh insanely, love truly, and forgive  quickly.
