Sounds like you'll have many more tell tale escapades to reveal .

Enjoy your stay nevertheless, the owner of the house sounds like he has his head

screwed on straight and will look after things.

Living with 20 somethings can be a challenge though, best to try and keep a subjective but friendly distance .

To me, health and fitness are not what they might appear to be to others. Heredity has a lot to do with it.

The single worst blow to health and longevity as well as to stamina and energy is SMOKING.

I have never smoked anything. I never even tried to smoke.

When I was a kid I had very bad asthma. My parents (and most of society) smoked like chimneys all the time.

They smoked inside the house, inside the car, in movie theaters, in restaurants, in grocery stores, in elevators, in planes--you named it! I was always choking, coughing and gasping.

My parents told me: "It's ALL in your MIND."

So, the first chance I got to get away from all that I did. I went to prison as a JW and spent from 1967-1969 around inmates who smoked really nasty, cheap tobacco ALL the time!

So what?

So, I think I developed an immune system on overdrive!
I hardly ever get sick.

I have had a jaw infection from a cracked tooth. But--that's an opportunistic invasion rather than a health failure. That was 3 years ago.

Long story short---I have a good genetic background which gets a chance to work since I never ruined it by being a smoker.

My good friend Quentin (in the photo) is 3 years younger than I am and he's been a smoker a long, long time. He has heart disease and so do his wife and daughter.

I hate staying indoors.

I have always been a long-walk kinda guy. I walk very fast.

I was a runner for several years in California; 6 miles a day.

Now I ride a bicycle every day.

That's just how I am. I'm not forcing myself to do it. It's how I'm "designed" by my DNA.

I have no special diet at all. I hate regimens, diets, self-discipline and all that. I also avoid PILLS, supplements, vitamins, health food and such.

Why?

I'm an idiot, I suppose :)
