Do you want to live a long life? - Page 4

You hear about guys in their 80s who run marathons and such, but they are pretty much the rare exception. For most people, life starts getting pretty sh*tty after their mid '70s. At least such has been my observation.

I have lousy longevity upline, so I probably don't have too much more sand in my hourglass. Fine with me! I don't want much more than seven to nine years. If I am diagnosed with some terminal condition before then, so be it--I've already had a fairly long life as most of humanity has reckoned such things.

Strange grandfathers you've got there, Globie!

My aunt passed away just a couple of weeks ago from cancer. Say what you will, but she was begging to hang on as long as she could. She even had a sugical procedure which probably onle added a few days. When you age up, you may change your tunes to "yes, please."

I've realized that life is cyclical. You are born an ugly, bald creature with no teeth who relies on someone else to cart you around and wipe your ass after you shit your pants, and should you live a long life you die an ugly, bald creature with no teeth who relies on someone else to cart you around and wipe your ass after you shit your pants.

At this point in time I do not wish to live to the average age of retirement or anywhere close to it.
