Will I Live To Be 80.

[plaicemat]

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 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, or fishing?"

"No, I don't," I said.

He asked, "Do you gamble, travel a lot, or have a lot of sex?"

"No," I said. "I don't do any of those things."

He looked at me and said, "Then, why do you give a toss?"
