Still, weighed up against the possibility of maybe a couple of decades of frailty, incontinence and dribbling..... One answer could be assisted suicide so we could smoke and drink and eat fatty food, and if the result turned out to be a lingering and painful death we could pay someone for a ticket to the undiscovered country on a big pink train of fluffiness. Of course, that would mean owning your own life so don't expect that option to be available any time soon from the bastards who say they own it at the moment. Of course we could always try the DIY approach, which for some of us would mean trying hard drugs for the first time and in fucking massive quantities in an attempt to not only leave this vale of tears but to be completely off your dial at the time. The problem with that is that you don't own your body either, and the bastards who think they do have ordered you not to and, in case you disobey, have also ensured that the quality of anything you buy is variable. And they wonder why people want to smoke, drink and eat tasty if unhealthy food!Angry Exilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491082312193274360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-9339033140061219642009-09-19T22:56:06.073+01:002009-09-19T22:56:06.073+01:00I'm really stoned so this might not make sense...I'm really stoned so this might not make sense.<br /><br />As far as the "Science Vs Religion" thingy goes, I've always been on the side of science.<br />However, of late I have been coming to the conclusion that with the rise of science and the fall of religion (As far as peoples beliefs are concerned)we also have the fear of death due to a lack of belief in an afterlife in Heaven with God.<br />Could this be the reason some people are obsessed with wringing every last minute out of their lives, even if those last minutes are filled with agony and bodily fluids leaking.<br /><br />What to do about it...I haven't a clue.<br />Death is not something that particularly bothers me and therefore cannot even begin to understand the thought processes of the "living dead".<br /><br />bhjAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-85612467908830812132009-09-19T19:54:02.101+01:002009-09-19T19:54:02.101+01:00More and more I think the late Keith Floyd got it ...More and more I think the late Keith Floyd got it right - died at 65 after a long, boozy lunch and a few fags.

Apparently ...Dick, you've got it all wrong pal. Apparently all we have to do is work longer, thus staving off senility and paying for our er.. headstones all in one fell swoop:<br /><br />http://gimundo.com/news/article/working-for-more-years-can-ward-off-senility-and-alzheimers-disease/<br /><br />"Recently, researchers from the Institute of Psychiatry at King’s College London researched the life histories of more than 1,300 people who’d been diagnosed with dementia, considering factors such as education, employment, and age of retirement.<br /><br />According to their findings, one factor was quite consistent in determining when someone might begin showing signs of Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia: those who retired later were likely to show symptoms of the disease at a later age. They found that for every extra year of work, a person could expect to halt the disease’s progression for an additional six weeks."<br /><br />So guess what? If you simply delay retiring until,say, 85 you could delay the onset of dementia by approximately 2.3 years and therefore, as you'll probably be on your last legs anyway if you last that long, can enjoy pissing yourself whilst fully compus mentis and have the privilege of paying for it to boot.<br /><br />Apparently this is a 'silver lining'..BTSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-7226986624464261862009-09-19T18:22:41.103+01:002009-09-19T18:22:41.103+01:00DP,

It is an open secret they will get rid of Assistance Allowance (AA) and whilst in a letter from DWP (dated 12th August 2009 signed by a Mrs. C. Keane) they have said that there are no existing proposals to transfer funding from Disability Living Allowance (DLA) you can bet your last cent/penny/euro they will - note the word 'existing', which surely means that it is being considered! As part of the 'cuts' you can bet they will then 'un-ringfence' that so that will go!<br /><br />I hardly think the word 'marvellous', whether in a sarcastic sense or not, is the right one!<br /><br />This government is surely an example of the 'walking dead' - who are determined that they will not be alone - come their 'demise'!Witterings from Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11349563961787006775noreply@blogger.com
