I have a terminal STD.
Our old friend Desmond stayed with us for a couple of days.
He's Irish, long a naturalized U.S. citizen, and a recently retired ER physician.

As the Irish say, "He likes his jar."
As do I.

He and I were a bit up into the whiskey last night. We were getting into a pretty deep discussion about the meaning of life and why we're here and such.

He fixed me with a meaningful stare.
"Just remember, old friend. Life itself is an always terminal, sexually transmitted, disease."

Wow, Des.
whew
;-)

1. Whiskey makes me cynical too
:-)

I always have to laugh when someone mentions "increased mortality rate". Ya can't have more than 100%!

3. 100%. Very good.
Years ago Des said "Life is a terminal disease."
Now he figures it's also sexually transmitted.
I cannot argue with that.

2. Life is an STD? Oh dear, how can we stop this horrible affliction?
And what about the children - for the love of god, who will think of the children? :cry:

:hi: trof! I'm of Irish descent, and I "like my jar" too, although it is normally filled with wine.

Bah! All she does is eat lettuce and produce dozens of little pellets! Soon, she'll be hasenpfeffer!

18. I have no experience with STDs
But philosophy yes.

"The Earth is our common ship death our destination."

I think I wrote that long ago.
