My grandfather turns 90 in two weeks, still plays golf several times a month and uses an elliptical every morning. He had a bout of congestive heart failure a couple years ago but is very stable now.



Yeah, his grandfather... her husband, died in November at 90. Cancer was caught too late, but he was playing golf up until four months before that... and quite well too. Better than my boyfriend anyway. They lived on the golf course so he played all the time.

I wouldn't frick you with my dick either. I wouldn't even frick you up the arse with a hose hooked up to a box of Franzia. That would be a terrible waste of some already bad Franzia.

I plan on living forever, but I'm leaving that up to science right now.

No. Could you imagine turning 79? It would be like living as a fugitive.

Hell, no. I'll be completely ravaged long before then; at 80, I'll be in some state-run institution for Alzheimer's patients. No thanks. If there's any time to take control of one's life it's at the end of one's life--and I plan to go out at MY chosen time on MY chosen terms.

I would have some strange fun. I'd run every red light and stop sign, jump from tall buildings, shoot at cops with a finger gun, jump into a volcano, and slap a bunch of line beards in the face in Louisville.

80 and out! You bet! I could smoke again, and pretty much live the life I wanted knowing when I'd cash in my chips. That's a very easy call - after a certain age, you're really just an inconvenience on the young anyway.

Hell yes, especially after you clarified that we would be guaranteed good health until death at 80.

Watch one person die of Alzheimer's and you'll change your mind about gambling in this scenario... shite is terrifying.

Nah. Part of the enjoyment of life is never knowing how long you have or how it will end. It's not how long you have, but how you spend those days.
