Transcript:
Irving: Woman's goal is a "flat tummy". Big deal. It sounds cute. Man's goal is "carved abs" "cut abs" "peeled abs" "shredded abs" "chiseled abs" "ripped abs"...Everything about our workout implies more pain and sacrifice!! Man suffers so much more to look good! Cathy: Woman completes her 25,000th rep of biting the tongue.

I vote that we hire a hit man to take Irving out. Anyone with me? Or I could show Irving my abs which would make him faint dead away. I don’t work out. I just carry hundred pound packs or hoses several times a week.
Morning Susan not sleeping in on a Saturday? Me either. Places to go and people to see. Morning lightenup and lightenup jr. Hello fellow Cathyites far and wide.

I of the ‘flat tummy’, who plays soccer, basketball, hockey, street hockey, and takes long walks with Little Muttley Beagle cannot relate to Irving. Irving is cut peeled shredded chiseled and ripped but his abs never will be.
Morning one and all. We’re off to play in the park for a while. LMB is just . . . about . . . ready . . . Done! LOL Our little bullet. :-D

Woman’s goal is trying to keep her head from exploding and not giving man even more pain. lol

“Man suffers so much more to look good!”
HA!!!!! What a joke — and not a funny one either!!!!! It is a proven fact that once a woman hits Cathy’s age (over 40, approaching menopause and dealing with a slower metabolism than she used to have) it gets harder and harder to lose the weight that keeps creeping on more and more as time goes by despite the fact that we’re constantly dieting and exercising like crazy in order to try and take control of changing bodies that have no interest whatsoever in cooperating with us!!!!! Susan is soooooo right . . . Irving’s a real “drama king” indeed!!!!!
I’m in on the hiring of a hitman! You know anyone??? ;-)
Good afternoon, lightenup, lightenupjr., K.F.G., Susan, lindz.coop, rgcviper, gmforde, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, hendelca, Gator007, legaleagle48, Willi Nilli, isthereanybodyoutthere, soonergal, MaiTai and all the REST of the “Cathy” crowd hanging out with us tonight.

When I first read the second panel, I did a double-take since I thought the repeated word was one letter different. (Use your imagination.) When I re-read, though, I realized it was “ABS” and not … you know.
Another thought: In the final panel, Cathy just as easily could’ve said “25,000th rep of rolling the eyes”, couldn’t she have?
Happy Saturday, all!

I’m in for taking Irving out!! Great idea Aaron. And you’re so right rgcviper about the eye-rolling. I would have liked to see what “poor Irving” went through while Cathy was pregnant, but alas, we will never know.
