I just turned 70 and after a thorough physical
and a series of exhaustive tests my physician
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?”
“Do you smoke tobacco,” he asked, “or drink
beer or wine?”
“No,” I replied, “and I don’t do drugs, either
anymore.” Then he asked, “Do you eat ribeye
steaks and barbecued ribs?”
“Not very often,” I admitted. “I’ve read that
red meat is unhealthy.” Then he asked,
“Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like
playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?”
“No,” I said, “I really don’t.”
“Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have lots
of sex?”
“No,” I answered. He looked at me for a
while and finally said, “Then why do you
even give a shit?”
