That's true. Living to very old age is very low on my priority list.
When my happy days are done I want to be done. I think there can
still be some happy days in front of me.

My dad turns 80 next month. He has been a widower for almost 10 yrs so
far..and is doing just fine. He will live into his 90s based on his
family history, in pretty darned good health.

You can do the same.

You just have to Want to.

I think Don doesn't want to live into "Old{Decrepit|} Age" so much
as he doesn't want to live into "Old{Geezer|Respected Elder} Age".

Remember back when 50 was _old_?

Old farts these days - not like when I was a boy! We used to
have us Real Geezers in those days! Now, they'll let anybody
with a little gray hair be an old fart!
