of all the crazy poll questions we've had up to this point, this one "takes the cake"!

Therefore, I throw the ball back into the asker's court:
Why do you even ask?


I'm not the asker, but here's my perspective anyway:


If you find a question uninteresting, I don't understand why you would go to the trouble of clicking on the "view responses" button, reading through the answers, and writing a response. Why not just work on the assumption that we each find different things interesting, and focus on the aspects of the web site that do interest you?

Couldn't agree more.

Always be ready, because you never know. Jun 6, 2007

When my uncle died in 1999, he was only 66, but his body was that of a 99-year old person, so worn was he. My father died 2 months ago, he was 69, and again he looked like as if he was much older. I will be 39 this August, and everyone thinks I'm in my late 20s or early 30s. It's how you live! MY father and my uncle had to go through tough childhoods.

When my uncle died in 1999, he was only 66, but his body was that of a 99-year old person, so worn was he. My father died 2 months ago, he was 69, and again he looked like as if he was much older. I will be 39 this August, and everyone thinks I'm in my late 20s or early 30s. It's how you live! MY father and my uncle had to go through tough childhoods. When people in Europe or the U.S. start to "work" when they in their 20s, my father started to work when he was 10, and my work has not been as hard as his (office desk vs. spinning machines). So I would say that if you don't eat fatty food, don't smoke, enjoy life, have a glass of wine or a pint of beer, never bother about anything, thank God for everything, and share your love with others, you may be able to live longer that you (or others) would expect. Of course, you always have to be ready! You never know who's next. I wish everyone a long and healthy life.Collapse
