Damn Pessimist
When I was visiting my 92-year old friend, Bob Cook, I asked him if he had any relatives that lived longer than him. "Yeah," he answered, "I had an uncle who lived to be 96, my sister lived to be 98, and one of my aunts lived to be a 103."
"Sounds to me like you're going to be around another 10 years."
Glancing at me with a sly grin on his face, he mumbled, "Damn pessimist!"
