Thread: Will I see Ninety????

I recently had to choose a new primary care doctor.


After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, she said I was doing fairly well for my age. (I am eighty).


A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking her, 'Do you think I'll live to be 90?'


She asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?'


'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'


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


'I said, 'Not much... My former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!'


'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?'


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


She asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of s*x?'


'No,' I said.........


She looked at me and said.


'Then, why do you even give a stuff ?'
