An expert testicular and prostate exam should be done every year once you hit thirty or so, and a heart stress test isn't a bad idea. Why drop dead from something completely preventable just to be macho? I know that you have this whole self-reliance thing going on, but give me a break.

1. I had a stress test a few years ago. My sitting heart rate is 60 and I could run on the treadmill like a motherfucker. Doc said I had an iron ticker.
2. In 00' I had bloodwork for a life insurance policy. Again, results came back as spectacular.
3. Bleeding from the nipple?
4. A friend who I party with a lot had some work done last year. came back with highly elevated liver enzymes. His wife doesn't let him go out and he can't drink anymore. Frankly, I can't live without booze. I've been a regular binge drinker since the age of 16 and I've no intention of stopping my weekend antics until the day I die. The last thing I need is to get into an argument with my wife about it.
S(If I dropped dead today, I could honestly say its been a good ride... I have no intention of having anyone tell me to curb anything)D
