Worth contemplating.

a joke but worth thinking about, don't you think?

Will I live to see 80?

I recently picked a new primary care doctor. 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'll live to be 80?' He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink scotch, beer or wine?''Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?' I said, 'No, my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!' Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?'
'No, I don't,' I said. He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex ?' No,' I said. He looked at me and said, 'Then, why do you even give a shit?'

Quality over quantity even or especially in life!

I like that Doctor. He not only has a sense of humor but he is also honest. (Not to mention knows what's important.)

My doctor told me to

Travel to interresting, exotic places
Eat interresting, exotic food
Drink interresting, exotic booze
Have interresting, exotic sex

Because more people get sick from boredom than from living large.

I always thought the cardio diet killed more heart patients than Southern cooking (fry everything, add gravy!).

Cardio diet: if it tastes good, spit it out, you can't have it!

Who wants to stick around for that crap!

I want to drive a fast car to a golf course to have sex after eating a steak now.

I always take comfort in that.

I had an obese aunt whose doctor told her: "If you don't quit eating cakes, you won't live to see 80."

She said: "If I can't have my cakes, I don't want to."

I believe she diead at 84.
