    A middle aged man goes to see his doctor about his current health status. After a barrage of tests, his doctor informs him he's quite healthy. The man then asks the doctor, "Do you think I'll live to be 80 then?". The doctor asks him, "Do you smoke and drink a lot?". He replies, "Well, no. In fact not at all. Not even any kind of drugs.". The doctor then asks, "Do you have sex on a frequent basis with many different partners?". He replies, "For god's sake, no. I'm married and my wife and enjoy sex, but only every other month or two.". The doctor then asks, "Do you eat lots of red meat that's char-broiled and covered in thick sauces?". The man replies, "Oh no, none of that for me. I like a little chicken or fish once and a while to complement all the vegetables and fruit that I normally eat.". The doctor then asks, "Do you engage in any dangerous activities like sky-diving, race car driving, or other activities like that?" The man replies, "Hell, no. That stuff is way to dangerous for me to do". After a moment the doctor says, "Well, then I have just one final question for you.". What's that asks the man. The doctor asks, "Why do you care if you live to be 80?". :)

        Interesting quote from a man who was hung by his people. :)

              Regardless of hung or hanged, he ended up dead as a parrot nailed to his perch[^]. :)

                Well he didn't believe his people should have the 'better' option. SOP for socialist dictators.

                        Univoted by someone... perhaps by those who support socialist dictators, supprised there are still socialist dictator Mussilini fans.

                          There are still fans of socialist dictators (and presidents), but probably not too many fans of Mussilini left though. ;) I suspect that was just one of the nimrods that votes based on the posters name.

                            You gotta like the fact that the trains ran on time. (but I didn't down-vote Boney.)
