A Good Idea
Last Updated: Sunday, October 22, 2000 04:26 PM
A fellow was reading the paper one day lamenting the fact that his doctor has ordered
him to lose 75 pounds. Next thing he sees is an advertisement for a "guaranteed"
weight loss program. "Guaranteed like hell," he thinks to himself. "But
lets see what they think they can do."
He calls them on the phone and subscribes to the 3 day, 10 pound weight loss program. The
next day there comes a knock at his door, and when he answers, there stands before him a
voluptuous, athletic 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nikes and a sign
hanging around her neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss
company.
The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me." Without a second
thought, he takes off after her. A few miles later, huffing and puffing, he finally
catches her and has his way with her. After they are through, he kisses the girl one last
time and thinks to himself with a nod, "I like the way this company does
business."The next two days, the same girl shows up and the same thing happens each
time. On the fourth day, he weighs himself and, sure enough, he has lost 10 pounds.
Deciding that he likes his somewhat more slender physique, not to mention the method of
treatment, he calls the company back and subscribes to their 5 day, 20 pound weight loss
program. He thinks that losing 20 pounds in only 5 days seems like a lot, but he is
intrigued by what their workout schedule might be like this time. As expected, the next
day there comes a knock at his door. When he answers it there stands a 22 year old
knockout dressed in nothing but a pair of Reeboks and a sign hanging around her neck. She
is simply stunning, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. She introduces herself as a
representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you
can have me." He's out the door like a shot. This gal is in excellent shape and it
takes a while to catch her. But when he does, it is worth every cramp and wheeze.
She is wonderful, the best he has ever had. He is really looking forward to the next four
days. For the next four days, the same girl shows up and the same thing happens each time,
much to his delight. On the sixth day, he weighs himself and, unbelievably, he has lost
another 20 pounds. "I love this company," he thinks to himself. "I never
knew losing weight could be so much fun."
Feeling much better about himself, he decides to go for broke and subscribe to the
company's 7 day, 50 pound weight loss program. "Are you sure, sir?" asks the
representative on the phone. "This is our most rigorous program."
"Absolutely," says he, "I love your program. I haven't felt this good in
years!" The next day there comes a knock at his door and he enthusiastically answers
it.

There stands Richard Simmons wearing nothing but pink racing spikes and a sign around his
neck that reads, "If I catch you, I can have you!
