You take the good with the bad. But being the wicked backslider that I am, I find more good than bad around here.

I love the free entertainment, the inexpensive food & rooms, and I'll spend the rest of my life keeping myself amused by playing cat & mouse with the casino suits. I know that the free & inexpensive features around here are paid for by clueless tourists, but they come here and do it willingly.

My uncle is 91(I think) he set the guniess world record for the most pull-ups at 6. He's a personal trainer at Golds Gym in Palm Desert. He's there 7 days a week right now! Also does a local show called"go with Moe" he rides up on his 1200cc Suzuki and tours different attractions. He always smoked unfiltered cigarettes, eats lots of red meat, drinks hard liquor - alot, but, exercises like a mad man! His brother, died from heart failure about 20 years ago. Ike ate very little red meat, mostly fish and chicken, only had an occasional glass of red wine, never smoked! He is one of the funniest guy's you would ever meet!

Google Moe Carson.

Sounds like my brother. At one time he said his goal was to live to 60. Now he is something like 72. Getting to suspect he will outlive three remaining sisters and me.

I think that quote is normally attributed to Marys brother.... Mark.

You may wish to educate yourself about the causes of pneumonia. An interesting article here: http://www.medicinenet.com/pneumonia/article.htm
