My Sentiments Exactly!

Will I Live To Be 80?

I recently turned 65 and had to choose a new primary care physician for my

Medicare program.

After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing "fairly well"

for my age.

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him,

"Do you think I will live to be 80?"

He asked: Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?"

"Oh no," I replied. "I don't do drugs, either."

"Do you have many friends and entertain frequently?"

"I said, "No, I usually stay home and keep to myself".

"Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?"

I said, "No, my other doctor said that all red meat is unhealthy!"

"Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking,

or bicycling?"

"No, I don't," I said.

"Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?"

"No," I said. "I don't do any of those things."

He looked at me and said, "Then why do you give a shit?"

That is TOO funny. It took me a minute to realize that it was a joke. I thought that you were talking about yourself. OOPS!! I feel like a total idiot.

My God Raven needs to see that I'm of the "live a little" camp, I mean don't do all that crap in excess (especially because then you begin to lose appreciation for it) but here and there, freakin' live a little, ya know?

Woah! I've said both of these things .. many times, 'cept, I lived past the quarter-life crisis thing. Next stop! Forty!

I hope I make it past 100, the whole dieing thing freaks me out a tad bit

Is it the dying that freaks you out, or the unknown?

[predaking]

The dieing, i'd rather be alive to face the unknown

You thought I was 65 years old?
