My New Doctor

I recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing "fairly well" for my age.

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "Do you think I'll live to be 80?"

He asked, "Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?" "Oh no," I replied.

Then he asked me if I smoked dope, took hallucinogens, ecstasy, or any kind of recreational drugs? To which i replied "No way."

Then he asked, "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?" I said, "No, my other doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!"

Do you eat alot of sweets, chocolate, cakes and pies? I said "Very, very, little".

"Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?" "No, I don't," I said.

He asked, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?" "No," I said. "I don't do any of those things."
He looked at me and said,"Then why do you give a big rats patootie ?"
