Of all the vehicles on the road, isn't the minnie van the most dangerous.

If the mini-van doesn't get you, the cholesterol and saturated fats will.

We should be discussing the importance of diabetic screenings to keep us safe too.  And I sincerely hope there are no SMOKERS in this group.  Just remember that glaucoma checks are often free, and that a flu shot could even save your life.

Is ATGATT applicable on a  dialysis machine?

Haha... no.

I just had a guy approach me at a gun range recently.  He was telling me how much time/effort/ money he had into his firearm collection.  And I couldn't get over how un-healthy he looked.  It seemed obvious that an armed assailant was not the biggest threat to his life.

It just opened my eyes to how lopsided some people's (including me) safety concerns are.  And how messed up it is to judge others on their safety/ health choices.  It just seems hypocritical... no?

I'm getting old too, I guess.  That "live and let live" thing is really creeping up on me.   ;D

Truth is, none of us will make it otta here alive, at least I'm sure no one has yet. So how someone chooses to live or die is pretty much up to them, don't ya think? I think goin out on one of these things would be way better than shittin my pants in some nursing home. No worries though, I'm not plannin on shittin my pants any time soon. 8)
