I had never intended to live past 30 and lived my life accordingly... after my childhood, It's a miracle I'm here at all. Then I was 40-50-60, and now 72. I can hardly believe it! I'm convinced that I'm either going to live forever, or I already died and this is Hell!
A friend on here and I were discussing our mortality and he suggested that I consider making arrangements for willing my crypto-fortune to my family... but I have other plans. I'm going to buy an oversized coffin and find a suicidal hooker, preferably between 25-40 (No uglies, fat chicks, or trannys) to spend eternity with me.
Anyways, I made it, thanks in in a very big way, to my friends here on Steemit who have been so supportive. Believe it or not, it's what keeps me going and motivated to write (and post offensive memes- I managed to offend 4 phonies and get them off my follower list. That's why I posted it.) I'm so very happy to have found this wonderful community. So, if you drink- have one for me and don't forget, there's still time to get me that Maserati! Thanks!!!
Happy Birthday, Old Man! I'll have a drink in your honor, but not for another 8-10 hours.

Happy Birthday! No old guy at all. The 70s are now considered as the 50s in real life expectancy so I have read. Surely hope it's not FAKE news!

Happy Birthday and congratulations good sir. You've clearly made it to this age for a reason and you continue to prove this time and time again. You're providing this community, and the world by extension, laughter, sanity, reality, honesty, truth, friendship and the pleasure of getting to know you. I get that you never could have forseen any of this for yourself, and may have actively tried to avoid it, but it seems your character and strength has been needed for longer than 30 years.
Whatever happens in the future, hookers or otherwise, I know you'll do whatever you need to do with your unextinguishable character.
There will be a whiskey in my glass for you tonight.

Thank you my friend! Everything happens for a reason... I still have no idea what???
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Maybe the reason or reasons have been in every second, minute, hour and day you have been on this world. Maybe your purpose has always been to enrich the lives of others, to pass on knowledge, wisdom and to be someone who can teach from your lifes experiences. Or maybe I am a million miles from the truth of it all but I believe we all have a purpose in this life and finding and knowing this is often the real challenge. I don't believe I have found my purpose in life yet but I know I have one, even if that purpose is to be there for others.

That's the funny thing about your purpose in life... You don't get to know what it is- it's all reflected in others. I forget if it was Plato or Aristotle (Plato I think) who said: If someone quotes one of your ideas, you've reached immortality.

I understand! I turned 67 a week ago and as a kid I thought I would probably die before the year 2000. Crazy kid idea! I come from a fairly long lived family.
Growing up I had great-aunts and great-uncles who lived into their 90s.

Always! It's a good thing the Mercedes won't start (it will but I let the battery run down). They pulled his license after the last wreck... he goes to court next month. I've been taking him to drunk driving classes... he hasn't had a drink in over 40 years, it's the meds... but laws are laws. I don't even know why he wants his license back!

Congratulations, many do not make it to lap 72. The simply lucky seem to be weeded out by 60, so it must be intelligence. If you hang out a bit longer, I'm trying to cure aging. Cancer was a much easier fix.
