    Talking
    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. (I just turned 60.)

    A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "So, do you think I'll live to be 80?"

    He asked, "Do you smoke, or drink beer or wine?"

    "Oh no," I replied, "and I don't take 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, boating, 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 then looked at me and said, "Then, why do you even give a sht?!"

    At my funeral I'd much rather have somebody whispering "he should have known better" than "I just dont understand, he was so healthy"
