This is a neat little "Life Expectancy Calculator (http://gosset.wharton.upenn.edu/~foster/mortality/perl/CalcForm.html)"

I should, according to this calculator, live to be about 81 years old. My great-grandmother (babus, as we called her [Polish]) lived to be 95, and her husband, 97.

Maybe I should but back on drinking/smoking :rolleyes:

Only time will tell...



EDIT: Actually, it appears as though I should quit driving and take up unicycling as my main method of transportation.

according to that site though...

Life Expectancy: 84.74
Lower Quartile : 77.32
Median Lifetime: 86.79
Upper Quartile : 94.45

I'm gonna die early...it's because I'm left handed though.

i use deathclock.com as well. it's less stressful when you know exactly how many seconds you have to live. the almighty clock will let me know when my time is up.

It says I'll live to be 80, but somehow I don't see myself living past 50.

Well according to a psychic and a translater, either me or my g/f, wife, fiancee whichever(some how is my current girl Nikki) will die in about 10-15 years.....

I'm going to either live until I'm 94.5 or 99.5.
Plenty of years left to improve my unicycling.

Yeah DK. Is that because you're going to live fast, hard and wild? Pack more living into those 50 years than most people could pack into 100? Because you value living more than longevity?

Billy

What does this mean? "The automobile which I most frequently travel in [do not do don't know] regularly keep to speeds appropriate to road conditions"

Would you say Kris Holm keeps his MUni to speeds appropriate to road (or off-road, or mountain) conditions?

Not really, but I just see myself dying before that... Like getting cancer or dying in a car crash.
or maybe attcked by ninja chimps...

That could be so. Can't you get the government down in Richmond to do something about that ninja chimp problem (or do they fear reprisals from PETA? :D :D )

It gave me a "lousy" score of 86. Uh uh. 100 or bust!


I guess "bust" means not 100...

I'm happy with 82 that it says I'd live to be.

Due to advancements in modern medicine anyone born after the year 2000 is supposed to have a life expectancy of nearly 150 years on average. The fact that medicine and treatment ar constantly advancing invalidates the quiz entirely. Only if we were stuck in time would we live accurately to the chart... and even then the chances of that are slim, due to lifestyle changes constantly occuring.
