My Dad's father died at 34 when my Dad was 6. My Dad died a month short of his 80th birthday.

My mom was convinced for years that she would get Alzheimer's since her mother and aunt both had it. My mom is 83 and sharp as a tack.

My general health, immune system, etc. etc. have all dramatically improved since I've started using it. I feel like sleep apnea was at the root of my dad's death and that the cpap has saved my life.

So, I think my dad's dad died in his mid-late 50s. It made my dad pretty nervous around that age, but he passed it up a few years ago and is doing good now. He could really stand to lose some weight (pretty big guy) but he's otherwise healthy. He has sleep apnea and the cpap really helps him as well.

God we have become boring.

I've had a couple of instances where I realized I had become a boring adult. Most recently was when I got excited about cutting up one of my baked chicken breasts to put on my salad instead of eating them separately.

Hey, maybe he has an ev motorcycle, like a Zero. Any rules on massive batteries?

Plus, with no emissions he could just ride it in, no need to push.

Surprisingly enough I believe massive batteries are fine. So far.

Everybody, and I mean everybody, who wished me happy birthday at work said the same thing about turning 21 next year. Apparently it’s not as exciting as it sounds. Like I have one more birthday to look forward to and then that’s it? Lol

My great grandfather lived to be 98; he didn't drink or smoke or chase women.

My grandfather lived to be 87; he didn't drink or smoke.

My father lived to be 96, he didn't drink or smoke or chase women.

I'm 76; I don't drink (anymore) or chase women (anymore).

Therefore, chasing women shortens ones life -

So, my condo... Both the people that lived in it before I bought it from their children died in the condo. However, the man died at the age of 98 and five years after him, the woman died also at the age of 98. I don't see it as morbid because they lived so damn long. Also, jokes about it being haunted happened almost immediately, but I believe that if ghosts are in fact real, they usually stick around if there was sadness/pain/suffering involved. These people lived long, I'm guessing happy lives. No paranormal activity noted thus far.
