    Some people seem to think that if we just correct all of our unhealthy habits we will live forever. My life has been better with some unhealthiness in it, and times that I’ve stopped has proven that. It’s your body and your time, so you should be able to use it like you want to.

      “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”

            No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy. No Fun - for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax - This won’t hurt.

            Then the sound like someone dropped a heavy book.

          Didn’t he have terminal cancer, wanting to die his way and not wasting away from a horrible disease?

            I don’t believe so. He had a bunch of health problems- dealing with recovery from a broken back, hip, and also a lung infection. But I don’t think cancer was part of the equation, ttbomk

      I would rather live a shorter life where I enjoy myself than a longer one where I restrict myself.
