On a sitcom last night Richard Dreyfuss said one's cholesteral level is an indicator of their quality of life (or enjoyment of life...you get the idea).

I'm afraid I tend to agree. Especially when scientists find that something is very bad for you and then a few years later it's "oops" well, it wasn't so bad after all. In fact, the alternative could have ultimately been worse for you.

I don't drink and I survive in an awful space. I think that ought to be enough. Moreover, I am not that excited by life to want to extend it.

My grandmother was raised on fried chicken, deep-fried catfish and breaded porkchop sandwiches with real mayonnaise, fried okra and hush puppies, grits slathered with butter and sugar, yams with brown sugar and marshmallows, peach cobbler, biscuits and gravy, thick slabs of bacon and pork sausage patties, real coffee with real cream, scrambled eggs made with heavy cream and cheese, fried in butter and served with Texas toast, homemade bread with strawberry preserves, cornbread with creamery butter, honey, and whole milk from a glass bottle. At the age of 84 she attends a weekly auction and bingo, shops at flea markets and garage sales, tends a sizeable garden, teaches regular classes in oil painting and sells Mary Kay, for heaven's sake.
