Buoyancy

 Only fifty years ago, I could swim underwater 50 meters, without taking a breath. This morning, in the pool, I could not submerge myself and floated powerlessly like styrofoam on the surface. I am so fat that my specific weight must be around 0.85. Over the years, I became less and less dense. Soon I may be less dense than air and will fly up and away in the wind like a free helium balloon.
