    Naaah. With the muscle in those legs, embarrassment? NOT.

    Mr Silver...

    You look awesome... the helmet definitely adds to the "ensemble"

    Awesome!!!!!

    It's truly amazing how you have turned your whole health around in just a year!
    I remember when you started, and were eating those awful diet/choco bars or something and didn't even know how to eat healthy. Just look at you now!!! :-D You're going to be rockin' at the age of 100 at this rate.

    What? Is that not normal? Don't all people dress that way at your office (if not- they certainly should- it's quite the look- you should send those to Brooks Brothers for a promo ad).
    Thanks for posting- you look great!

    Hey! Nice VMO there, Mr. Silver.
    A man of his word (even if I did have to nag a bit).

    However- how do we know you didn't go in on a Sunday and have Silver take those photos?

    The pictures were taken yesterday with the indulgence of co-workers who indulge the boss' eccentricities and goal of not taking himself too seriously...

    What's "VMO"?

    Vastus medialis obliques...or something like that. I'm sure I butchered it.
    They're your thigh muscle that forms the bump just inside and above your knee (and aid in extension?). My PT used to call me the "VMO-less wonder" after my knee surgery b/c mine disappeared to nuthin' and took a whole lot of pushing lead plates to get back...

    Vastus Medialus Oblique, one of the quadricep muscles and very difficult to isolate. You can see it in the photo where you are semi-seated on the table posing for the next annual report cover.

    Business on the top, party on the bottom.
    I know that doesn't sound quite right but you know what I mean.
    Now can I convince you to grow a mullet?

    Whooo-hooooo! Nice gams!

    Mr. Silver, you done good on this fitness thing! Excellent!
