Old Soul Music...

Went for a body building competition the other day at the Doha Sheraton. And there was this lovely old man belting out Arabic ballads.

Although I didn;t understand a single word of what he was singing, I was mesmerised by the pain in his voice.

To him!

I know one of them.. 2 years ago he was the third one in this competition...but to be honest...from my observation, the muscles workout completely eliminate workout of thinking...

strength of body totaly substitutes the strength of brain..

sad indeed...

Did you notice the instruments on their hands? The string and the drum actually DO produce music...

FS... I saw alot of those body builders in the city center mall, they looked hideous, completely out of proportion. You didn't miss anything :-)

I simply didn't get any pictures I liked. For me, this picture beat every others' butts.

This guy is as much a hunk in life's experience as the others were in muscles.
