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 "mid eighties".
A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him,
'Do you think I'll live to be 90?'
He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?'
'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'
Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?'
I said, 'Not much... 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,
sailing, hiking, or bicycling?'
'No, I don't,' I said.
He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have lots of sex?'
'No,' I said...

He looked at me and said, 'Then, why do you even give a darn?


SOME THINGS TO PONDER AS WE AGE
The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54.
The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57.
The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41.
The best soccer player in the world, Maradona, died at the age of 60.

And then...

KFC inventor died at 90.
Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88.
Cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102.
The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 - in an earthquake.

How did doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?

The rabbit is always jumping, but it lives for only 2 years.
The turtle that doesn't exercise at all, lives 200 years.

So…

Have a drink...

Take a nap ...

And when you wake up, have some bacon and eggs.
