Today's 10-minute walk is helping both of us stay fitness consistent.

Hi, I'm Dave. Let's take a walk. Here's a question for you. Or for someone else.

Because this, as you'll understand and really quickly, this may not actually be a question for you.

Maybe it's an intellectual question.

and entertainment purposes only.

I'm not going to get outside my lane and offer suggestions or recommendations for someone
