Apparently three bottles every single day. Three bottles of dr. Pepper will keep the doctor away apparently for 105 years. All right. Up next in the pulse, germs in the gym.

Started with the masters starting today at augusta. Yesterday it was the annual par 3 contest with the players kids doing their part as caddies. Some of them even took a few shots along the way. Thats awesome. Always one of the highlights. Plenty of holes in one, perhaps though the best of all of them was 80yearold golf legend gary player. He knocked it out of the green then a left hook down the hill and you see the celebration right into the hole. That shot is definitely one for the record books because players is now officially the oldest one to record a hole in one in the par 3 contest. How do i perfect that swing and get that exact same motion . You need some practice. I need a lot of practice. Yeah. Okay, so next before you head to the gym you might want to bring some hand sanitizer. A new analysis of bacteria growing at large chains around the country finds that workout equipment is far germier than some of the grossest surfaces that we touch every day. Really. Heres an example. This exercise bike has 39 times more bacteria than a plastic cafeteria tray. And the treadmill, 79 times more bacteria than a water faucet. Thats disgusting. But the worst offender, free weights. Dont you use free weights. Not really. You can tell from these guns. Clearly not. But theyre covered with 362 times more bacteria than a toilet seat, 362 times more. Than a toilet seat. Oh, my goodness. Wash those hands. Sweating to the oldies. Now this is why you should not leave your beloved family pet home for too long.

He left his mark all over the house and literally got its paws on calligraphy ink and had a field day if they found these paw prints everywhere in the entire house. Black ink all down the carpet, black ink all up the wall. Guilt written all over the culprits face and you know who im talking about. Did you know there was only one print on the bed. He was smart enough to know not to go on the bed. More news after this. Es of diabetic nerve pain, these feet were the first in my family to graduate from college, raised active twin girls, and trained as a nurse. But i couldnt bear my diabetic nerve pain any longer.
