-I like that - I'll have to remember it. Sounds like something the Dalai Lama would say...
Having taken care of myself, I like being able to say that I am old enough to say I can outrun guys half my age, and young enough to still do it!
I work in a hospital (administrative, not medical work), and a physician told me he was out of shape. I asked him why he didn't work out. He said he was too old to exercise! The sonofabitch is four years younger than I am! AND he's a goddamned healthcare professional! AND I ran 20 miles the other day! I didn't know whether to bitch-slap him or feel sorry for him.
I like that too. V i am going to quote you in my blog today... I don't want to forget that!!!
you should feel sorry for him and never see that person as your doc.
He's a research physician anyway.
My doc is the greatest. He's a primary care phycicaian that also specializes in pediatrics and sports medicine, and he hikes and runs and skis. A couple of years ago I saw him in August about having a minor procedure done, and he suggested I wait until October to have it done. I asked him why, and he told me that way, it was inbetween climbing season and ski season, and I wouldn't miss anything. Now THAT is the doctor for me!
