I recently picked a new primary care doctor.
After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said
I was doing 'fairly well'.
A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't
resist asking, '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 rib-eye steaks and barbecued
ribs?'
I said, 'Not much... 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 party with friends, drive fast cars,
travel alot, or have a lot of sex?'
'No,' I said.
He looked at me and said,
'Then, why do you even give a shit??'

HEALTH NEWS
Subject: Funny, but true
Would be funnier if there wasn't an element of truth to it.
Good Info To Have
After an exhaustive review of the research literature,
here's the final Word on nutrition and health:
1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.
2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.
3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer
fewer heart attacks Than us.
4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and
fats and suffer fewer Heart attacks than us.
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like....
Speaking English is apparently What kills you.
But don't worry, your Government is trying to
correct this Problem.....

JOB OPENING
HELP WANTED - Gynecologist's Assistant
A young man goes into the Job Center in Jacksonville, Florida and sees a card advertising for a Gynecologist's Assistant.
Interested, he goes to learn more - 'Can you give me some more details?' he asks the clerk.
The clerk pulls up the file and says, 'The job entails getting the ladies ready for the gynecologist. You have to help them out of their underwear, lay them down and carefully wash their private regions, then apply shaving foam and gently shave off the hair, then rub in soothing oils so that they're ready for the gynecologist's examination.
There's an annual salary of $45,000, but you're going to have to go to Oxford, Mississippi. That's about 620 miles from here.'
'Oh, is that where the job is?'
'No sir - that's where the end of the line is right now.'

RUGBY PLAYERS
Two 90 year old men, Mike and Joe, have been friends all of their lives.When it's clear that Joe is dying, Mike visits him every day.
One day Mike says, 'Joe, we both loved rugby all our lives, and we played rugby on Saturdays together for so many years. Please do me one favour, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's rugby there.
'Joe looks up at Mike from his death bed and says: "Mike, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favour for you."
Shortly after that, Joe passes on. At midnight a couple of nights later, Mike is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him, "Mike--Mike."
"Who is it?" Asks Mike sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"
"Mike--it's me, Joe..."
"You're not Joe. Joe just died."
"I'm telling you, it's me, Joe." insists the voice.
"Joe! Where are you?""In heaven", replies Joe.
"I have some really good news and a little bad news."
"Tell me the good news first," says Mike.
"The good news," Joe says, is that there's rugby in heaven!!
Better yet, all of our old friends who died before us are here,
too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still,
it's always spring time and it never rains or snows.
And best of all, we can play rugby all we want, and we
never get tired."
"'That's fantastic," says Mike. "It's beyond my wildest
dreams! So what could possibly be the bad news?'"
"Well.... you're in the team for Tuesday....."
