Having seen an IFC documentary on aging last night, focusing on people with Alzheimer's (which runs in my family), I'm rethinking this whole "eat right, keep fit" thing. Dying from a massive heart attack just shy of loss of mental function isn't necessarily the worst way to go out.
In addition, not having children or grandchildren to care for or about me, being left to the devices of whatever eternal care system the baby boomers haven't already filled up (I'm in the second tier of boomers) doesn't look like a good bet.
Remember, the complete bumpersticker is "eat right, keep fit, die anyway"...
