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 smoke tobacco, or drink beer or wine?'

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

Then he asked, 'Do you eat 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, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?'

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

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

'No,' I said

He looked at me and asked,

'Then, why do you even give a shit...’

I eat red meat (I like medium-rare steak), I drink white wine, I smoke a pipe, I eat lots of fat and oils.

My cholesterol is perfect.

So what if you live to be 100, if you never have any fun?

I drink white wine

Ya know that destroys your carefully cultivated image you have developed.

"A guy walks into a saloon in south Arkansas.

The tend says "What will you have"?

In polished English the mans says "I'll have a glass of your best white wine, if you please, sir".

The saloon goes silent as the barkeep pours the wine. All eyes are on the newcomer.

"I can tell your not from around here fella, what do you do?"

"I am a taxidermist", he replied.

"Ah what...?"

"You know, a taxidermist, I mount animals" said the stranger.

The bar keeps face brightened as a large smile came over him as he looked to the regulars in his bar.

"It's OK boys, he's one of us!"
