I'm kidding a bit. This past year just emphasized to me how unpredictable life is. I lost a friend who rarely drank, was a vegetarian for 40 years, and never even smoked a cigarette. He also was not overweight. He died of throat cancer. I was just mentioning to my wife that all of my really fat, hard drinking friends are still alive. I have no doubt that if there is a God, he , she, or they have a sense of humor. We deceive ourselves into thinking if only we do this or that, life will be better. That we're in control. Hah!
