I'm rarely inconvenienced by the state of my health, so yes.

Too much whisky, I suppose.
6', 165 lbs.
I eat a lot of Sechuan, barbeque, smoked and other hi-spice foods. Fish also.

Whatever, "one day closer to death."

I don't consider myself to be healthy, because I have so many different health issues. My doctor on the other hand tells me I am healthy, just in a lot of pain.

Where is T_O_B? I need to know he is healthy, he is my favorite blogger! Good ton hear from Multidis and Ret_Irrev. Oh, and where is Autie. The only reason I read these things is because of you all!

Considering myself to be healthy is such a relative perspective. I too, as riverdrifter, probably enjoy my whiskey a little more than I should. I smoke. I eat too much good food. And lets just say, if there was no more food I would survive longer than the median. Yeah, I'm in great shape for a middle aged guy that is overweight, smokes and drinks too much.

That's what you get for buying Parkay® instead of butter.

mjwgoku,
No, I am rarely a blogger.

I am a commentator, a glossator in the spirit of Averroes.

Kind of a color guy, but not a pundit.

guess it would depend on how one defines "healthy."

If one's weight is the determinating factor, then no, I'm not healthy but my cholestrol levels, blood sugar and everything else is very, very good. Thank God for good genetics!!!! :0)

and the reasons being; A. copious amounts of scotch dissolve and counter act the excess lipids from the ribs/strips/bacon etc. and 2., lots of onions. Onions in everything except oatmeal.

Boosh, as long as I can carry the decoy bag up to a half a mile, I'm healthy enuff for *****.

Kind of serious question. Good question for once. Better then lame band question yesterday.

I not happy with my flab and need to improve my diet. I lift weights regularly and have since I was kid. However, I know I need to do more cardio and flexibly exercises. I am way over weght and my diet sucks because I am on the go with work. But, I am trying to improve.

I am pharmaceutical-free (!), a major achievement in this day and age, what with the big firm grasp of Big Pharms infiltrating our lives and bodies. I most certainly consider my drug-free state healthy.

It's a wonder that anybody in this city is healthy when you got "gurus" coming to town for the purpose of encouraging people to go out in the cancer-causing sun of death, breathe toxic vehicle fumes, and dodge cars, busses, and homeless people, all while hoping to not break a leg or sprain an ankle.

I'll be able to be a whole lot healthier once all of you start paying ALL my medical bills via BarryCare! I need a government prescription for facial tissues. $75/box..pay up!!

Good health a relative term. What is good really or health for that matter or even relative. I try to be healthy but I'm not going to kill myself to stay healthy.

Autie:
Thet decoy bag, er, it do have decoys in it, right?

Shrimp scampi tonight, with, ok, spinach pasta, which do offset the *butter*-based sauce.
Spinach pasta, me? Whodathunkit.

"Spinach pasta is for impressing under-informed nookie hopefuls."

Really?!

Damn. Wished I'd known this long ago...
