Will I live to be 80?

Will I live to be 80?

Sometimes you just have to ask yourself ' Will I live to be 80?'

I recently chose a new primary care physician.

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 alcoholic beverages?'

'No,' I replied. 'I don't do drugs, either'

Then he asked, '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, boating,

fishing or relaxing on the beach?'

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

He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?'

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

Then he looked at me and asked,

'Then why do you give a %$#@&*?'

There was a song a long time ago that said

"I'M GONNA FILL MY CUP....TILL MY NUMBERS UP....I"M GONNA LIVE....LIVE.....LIVE , TILL I DIE. "

Live fast, love hard, die young and leave a beautiful memory.....

Hi Regis,

Think I'll switch to your doc. Mine asked me: "How many people do you know over 70 that weigh 200 pounds or more?" I guess I have four years left to find out.
