Calling Doctor Feel Good

Unless you've had an accident, serious disease or you're the luckiest person in the world, the following rules apply:

• If you're in your mid twenties, you've never seen a doctor and take no medications.
  
• If you're in your mid thirties, you go to the doctor rarely and still don't take any medications.
  
• If you're in your mid forties, you go to the doctor at least once every six months and take one or two medications.
  
• If you're in your mid fifties, you go to the doctor at least every three months (including check-ups and scheduled events like a colonoscopy - UGH). You now are taking around three to five medications and vitamins.
  
• If you're in your mid sixties, you're now going to multiple doctors for all kinds of stuff and you're taking at least five medications and a shit load of vitamins.
  
• If you're in your mid seventies, you know the first name of all your doctors, their wife's name and at least some of their children.  You're also not sure what medications you're taking or when you're supposed to take them because you have CRS (can't remember shit).
  
• If you're in your mid eighties, you're just happy to get out of bed in the morning to call doctor feel good.

The drug companies don't want us to die because they make the most money on old people. The drug companies don't want to cure anything because they won't be able to sell all the drugs that allow us to live with our problems.  There isn't any money in a cure for cancer, AIDS or any other major disease.

Therefore, we are going to live longer.  Get that in your head.  If you're unhappy now, think about the many - many years ahead of you to still be unhappy. If you're happy now, look at all the years you still have to be happy and give happiness to others.

 

I take the drugs and the vitamins because I want to live as long as I can.  My biggest problem with dying is I won't get to see it all.  I love my cell phone and want to see what it will be like to use a phone in the distant future.  I love my car and wonder if that's the way we'll get from place to place hundreds of years from now.

I love my friends and wonder if face to face conversation, hugging, kissing, intercourse, etc.  will happen the way it happens today.  In the Woody Allen's movie "Sleeper" people used an orgasmatron to have great sex.  The individual person stepped into the device, set the strength of the orgasm and pressed go.  Two minutes later they came out of the device spent.

I believe whatever the world will look like hundreds and thousands of years from now, it will be great and I want to see it.  However, the drug companies are probably not going to find a way to keep me alive that long.  

Sooo, since I love my life now, I'm going to do all I can to hang around as long as I can.
