Figaro Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Rob's recent "What NOT to do after a Heart Op." thread reminded me of this joke. Enjoy! A man recently turned 65 and had to choose a new primary care physician for his Medicare program. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, the doctor said he was doing "fairly well" for his age. A little concerned about that comment, the man couldn't resist asking him, "Do you think I will live to be 80?" The doctor asked: Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?" "Oh no," the man replied. "I don't do drugs, either." "Do you have many friends and entertain frequently?" "The man said, "No, I usually stay home and keep to myself". "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?" The man 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," said the man. "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?" "No," the man said. "I don't do any of those things." The doctor looked at the man and said, "Then why do you give a s**t?!" Moral of the joke: life is short, live it up! (but of course, be safe)
Ghabanos Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 True, but have to remind myself not to be reckless. Enjoy but not recklessly
