I’m nearly 64. My new fitness goal is to look as good as [this](http://blog.sfgate.com/hottopics/2013/07/22/geraldos-half-naked-tweet-makes-the-twitterverse-squirm/) in a towel by the time I’m 70.

An admirable goal, but please stay off twitter with your results. Be classy like [Jack Lalanne](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skRb-oND3qA&feature=youtube_gdata_player) and put on a wetsuit.

After seeing that, Rivera needs to put a shirt on and cower in a dark corner.
