Will I live to be 80?

[Mac_Attack]

Something to think about.


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, "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, 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 ****?"
