Well.....it looks like I died about 2 years ago. I accidently put 2000 lbs in for my weight...... :D

It says 71.2 for me......I was hopeing for late eighties or better...

[Jack Hogoboom]

I'm afraid to look.... :eek:

[Jerry Olexa]

mine came out 93 yrs. As WC Fields said" If I knew I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of mysef".

[Christopher Pine]

93 for me.... Genetically I have got a good shot! MY grandparents lived into there 90's... Now if I can just afford to live that long... hmmm?? :)
Chris

[James Giordano]

63 :eek: :eek: :eek:

[Bruce Shiverdecker]

83.7 for me. Hope they find a way to get rid of ostio-arthritis before long. The fact that I was STUPID and didn't treat my body very nice when I was young comes back to haunt me every day. Especially when the weather changes and around here, it changes every five minutes!

Be GOOD to yourselves.

[Jim Becker]

87.3...I can deal with that...but am willing to volunteer for more! :D

[Donnie Raines]

I wonder how we should factor this into our retirement plans. It appears that I am going to clock out a little earlier then I had wished for. I guess that means I should stop slideing the higher % of my pay into diffrent funds and what not...and should start slideing it into the work shop...... :rolleyes: :cool:

..you know...enjoy it why you can kind of thing....

[Frank Pellow]

WOW, my result was 94.9 years. :D That means I have 32 more years of woodworking and surely in that time I will learn enough to create some worthwhile items.

[Jim Stastny]

I get to live to alomst 84. Mmmm I bet I can do better than that.

[Jason Roehl]

93.0 for me. I also did one (RealAge?) that, instead of giving your life expectancy, it calculated your apparent age (probably based on average lifespans). I came out to be about 20 years old (I'm 30).

I sleep well, am physically active, don't smoke, drink moderately, no stress, good BP, no diabetes, BMI of 22.4, good family (even though not geographically close), and good friends (including here!)

Probably my biggest shortcoming is that I am light-skinned and never wear sunscreen. I don't take my shirt off outside, but my face, arms and legs go unprotected--as a painter! Hey, nobody's perfect! :D

[Michael Stafford]

How sad, I died last Wednesday... And not one of you guys sent flowers... Oy vay!!!

[Mark Singer]

881/2 I need more!

[Dennis Peacock]

Mine says - 67.3....I at least have a little longer.!!! ;) :D

[Chad Pater]

79.4 hmmmm

[John Miliunas]

Well, it's been nice knowin' you guys! :(

[Howard Norman]

Well, I am 70 now so I may be around another year or so.

Howard

[Donnie Raines]

Well, it's been nice knowin' you guys! :(

[John Miliunas]

Ahhhhh...You wouldn't, by chance, have something like a particular W&H in mind, would you?! :eek: :D :cool:

[Donnie Raines]

I tell you what......if you out live me you can have my lumber....if you go first I get your machinery....... :D :eek: :cool:

Lets see the odds....I am 27....and your how old???.... :confused: :D

[John Miliunas]

Hmmmm....I'm old enough to be your dad! So, what DO you think those odds might be?! :eek: :) :cool:

[Donnie Raines]

Me thinks we should cease this conversation for we could jinks stuff..... :eek:

[John Miliunas]

Me thinks we should cease this conversation for we could jinks stuff..... :eek:

Chicken! :rolleyes: Heck, I ain't afraid...I've already got one foot in the grave! :eek: Aw, but you're probably right. I need to conserve what little energy I have left. Still got a lot more tools to buy! :D LOML always tells me that "shopping is hard work"! :D :cool:

[Donnie Raines]

Chicken is right.....when I factor in all the other bets i have lost through the years....my odds are realllllly bad on this one. And when the stakes are this high........well......I better go to church tonight..... :cool: :D

Wait...maybe if I do the Life Test again it will yeild me more time....heck that will better my odds...... :rolleyes: :confused: ;)

[John Miliunas]

OK, here's a hoot: I went back and did the survey again. All the same answers, except, this time I marked myself as "single"; Picked up almost two years! :D :D :D

And do you know why married men typically die before their spouse? Because they WANT to! :D :cool:

[Michael Stafford]

John, your statement that men die because they want to reminds me of the story about Winston Churchill.

There was an important British socialite who was very opposed to Churchill's politics. On this occasion they were at a social event and she said to him, "Sir, if I was married to you I would poison your tea." :eek:

His response appropriately was, " Madam, if I was married to you I would drink that tea." :p

[Kirk (KC) Constable]

I answered all the questions honestly, and I'm the apparent 'winner' at 59.7 years. If my blood pressure wasn't outstanding I'd prolly be dead ALREADY. :-(

Certainly brightened my day...

[Mark J Bachler]

After the heart attack in "03" at the ripe old age of 48, I just take it from day to day.

[larry merlau]

mine said that i got 87.3. :D so that means another30 plus of beard growth, so maybe i could replace the merlin on harry potter or the lord of the rings guy? or maybe santa if he ever retires. but till then i willjust keep readin your wisdom here and breathin in the great fresh air of the woods and waters :D
