Looking Like a Boxer

Four or five days ago, I saw two Puerto Rican boys going to school. One of them came up to me and said, "Are you the guy who lifts?"

I said, "Yes."

Then he said, "Oh, you do not look like a weightlifter. You look like a boxer!"

Then all the way to school, they were looking at me and smiling, smiling. So, now I look like a boxer! The funniest thing is that on television recently they said, "He is 69, but he looks 25."
