I recently picked 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,"Well, do you smoke tobacco or drink beer/wine?" "Oh no," I replied. "I've never done either." Then he asked, "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbequed ribs?" I said "No, I've heard that all red meat is very unhealthy!" "Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf/sailing/ballooning/rock climbing?" "No, I don't," I said. He said, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, fly gyro copters or sexually fool around?" "No," I said. "I've never done any of those things. He looked at me and said, "Then why do you give a shit if you live to be 80?"
