How long do you think you're going to live?

Nice?    Unless you're saying that's the locale, how can you believe that's nice!

Well, dead is dead.
Not dead in the sense of "heaven" and "hell", but dead in the sense of an ending videotape that makes any worries about false decisions in life obsolete.

You're purporting a hologramistic view? Might you ever endeavor to splice up your life, effectively extending it? :-/

Could be. After all, I'm not desperately trying to end it.

But believe me, thinking this way about death makes things WAY easier.

Easier... perhaps -- but also scarier when considering all of the video tapes I've had broken, mangled, stolen or lost. I once spliced the series version of The Seed into The Wrath of Khan; I hope the splice let go and ripped the thief's VCR up -- but, then, it was probably illegally sold to some unsuspecting dupe. :-/

Is this another post where you're attempting suicide? Your cheapie VP doesn't have a "Rewind" button? If you're going to have a hologramistic breakdown you could at least keep rewinding to a more preferable section until tape integrity totally breaks down!

According to this web site, I'm going to live until 2057 and die at the age of 74. Honestly, that's fine by me. Sure once in a while you see really old people who are very able bodied and completely mentally sound (my flight instructor for example, or Fozzer (without the mental part)), but mostly, people that old can barely lift a a can of soda, let alone tell you what day of the week it is. I really don't want to be like that, I would rather die in a horrible appliance accident that leads to new warning labels being issued. That will be my legacy, a silhouette of a guy being mangled by a dishwasher.

My tape integrity usually breaks down on a friday or saturday night. ;P

...completely mentally sound

:-? What in the word is that? Is that when you hear weird noises in your head?

Aah, a most common folly. You get wound up only to totally unravel. That is sometimes something one would very much rather not have on tape.

If you are worried at all and need to stay informed about longevity, keep a ruler in your back pocket all the time ....just for good measure........

I sometimes forget to grab mine and consequently come up short..........

The idea is to pull the ruler out of the back pocket to use it, not double yourself up and put your head in the proximity of the ruler. That does seem to be a common problem, though; you could put a warning label to that effect on the ruler but, I suppose, it doesn't do much good if the ruler is already in the back pocket. ::)

I'll die on Thursday, July 23, 2037, at the age of 53.  :-/

But that's not bad, since I'm actually suicidal.  :D (yes, for real. lol. )
