Some times you just have to ask yourself ' Will I live to be 80?'


I recently chose 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, 'Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?'


'No,' I replied. 'I don't do drugs, either.'


Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?'


I said, 'No, my other doctor said that all red meat is unhealthy!'


'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, fishing or relaxing at the beach?'


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


He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?'


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


He then looked at me and asked,


'Then why do you even give a shit?'

Yep! There you have the truth folks! Live your life outside the box, not tiptoeing around it! Too funny, but brutally honest!


Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, worn out and screaming "Woo-hoo"!!!

Well, I have an extra 'r' in there and cannot get into it to edit it out. The edit feature only let's me into the body. Oh well, y'all know what it should be.

lol. that was funny. cd, you're doing all theright things.. just keep ontop of your game.. i am positive that you will live til 80- recent studies have shown that if you dont drink, smoke, or stuff that will harm your body the likely hood of surviving is well. also the average age limit is 84 for those of cuacasian ethnicity, 82 for aferican american and 87 for asian decendants. so, i think you should kick up your feet, grab a great book, and get a tub of icecream and enjoy your young self. you have it in the bag sweetie.

Did that really happen? If so, I can't believe a doctor would say such a thing. much less think it. I don't know what I would have said to him, but I don't think I'd go back. It does sound like you're doing all the right things. A positive outlook on life makes alot of difference too. I think you've got that covered as well.

Dr. Jones goes to the retirement home for his monthly rounds. He sees Joe and asks him, "Joe, how much is three times three?" Joe responds "59." He goes over to Tom and asks, "Tom, how much is three times three?" Tom responds, "Wednesday." He finally goes over to John and asks, "John, how much is three times three?" "NINE" replies John. "That's right ...now how did you come to that answer?" "It was easy...I just subtracted 59 from Wednesday!"

Her char, maybe this will clear it up
A man goes to the doctor and says, "Doc, I would like to live very long. What should I do?"

"I think that is a wise decision," the doctor replies. "Let's see, do you smoke?"

"Oh.. Half a pack a day."

"Starting NOW, no more smoking." The man agrees.

The doctor then asks, "Do you drink?"

"Oh, well Doc, not much, just a bit of wine with my meals, and a beer or two every once in a while."

"Starting now, you drink only water. No exceptions."

The man is a bit upset, but also agrees.

The doctor asks, "How do you eat?"

"Oh, well, you know, Doc, normal stuff."

"Starting now you are going on a very strict diet. You are going to eat only raw vegetables, with no dressing, and non-fat cottage cheese."

The man is now really worried. "Doc, is all this really necessary?"

"Do you want to live long?"

"Yes."

"Well then, it's absolutely necessary. And don't even think of breaking the diet." The man is quite restless, but the doctor continues, "Do you have sex?"

"Yeah, once a week or so..., only with my wife!" he adds hurriedly.

"As soon as you get out of here you are going to buy twin beds. No more sex for you. None."

The man is appalled. "Doc... Are you sure I'm going to live longer this way?"

"I have no idea, but whatever you live, I assure you is going to seem like an eternity!"

cd nurse... you should have been a stand-up; you have me laughing out loud in class again. I guess that I will have to not read your postings while in class.

cdnurse, this is Kay who hasn't been on nursing link for a while--for 2 reasons: 1) my computer crashed and I lost all my links, and 2) I took a class that took up all my time. Well, I'm back....! I missed you guys! I love your jokes. We need it. Thanks for sharing.
