Die, Americans, die!

[Zkribbler]

CNN carried a story this morning, saying:

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of Americans, both male and female. Four preventive measures have been proven and are well known. However, only 4% of Americans follow them. They are:

(1) Eat healthy
(2) Exercise
(3) Keep your weight down
(4) Don't smoke

Only 4%! I'm not among them.

(1) Eat healthy I usually do.
(2) Exercise I don't.
(3) Keep your weight down In the past few weeks, I've lost over 20 pounds, and will be losing almost another 20.
(4) Don't smoke I don't.

(PS: Hi, Ming. Like the title of this thread? )

Some sooner than later.

Some will live through their time healthier than others, too.

Wrong. If you follow those four guidelines you won't live longer, it just feels longer.

Thanks for the bolding, OTBOT

Nope. It was meant as another way of confusing two main languages.

Remember when Sideshow Bob explained to the jury how his T-shirt(?) simply read "The Bart, the" in German?

Well, for all I know, "Bart" is feminine.

If you follow them, you will feel healthier. I do all except excercise, and I plan on doing that too when this current job actually starts paying me.

When I'm 70, they have already invented medical methods for making new vains and stuff like that, so I'm not worried. SPEND SPEND SPEND!

[Jon Miller]

you sure you will live to see 70?

if I don't spend some effort to take care of myself, I bet I wouldn't see 30
