Will I live to see 80?

February 8, 2010 by bikesafe

Below is an e-mail I received from daughter Cheryl; my “take” is at the bottom of the e-mail:

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 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, ‘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, 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?

My take: If you do all of the above correct things to live longer you may not actually live longer but it will sure seem like it.

“Bob says Peyton will light them up”

February 7, 2010 by bikesafe


The above Bob DeMarco, ex-center for St Louis Cardinals, lives a couple of doors down the street from me. He just told me “Peyton, will light them up” but he also hopes it is a close game and not over at the half.

GO COLTS!
