JCC How to be an educated consumer of health and medical news

Cool article:

I interpret this as meaning that as long as I'm standing on one leg, I can't die or be killed. Is this correct?

 

Ken this is nonsense.

When did you start reading USA Today?

 

Normally I don't except when it promises immortality.

 

I was led to believe that death mutated and it's mild now.

 

If you had death coming because, say, you let yourself get old, then it doesn't really count.

 

Gonna be a long painful life for me, at least according to this. Several times when I've had leg injuries my physical therapists have "challenged" me to stand on one leg for as long as I can until I can make it to 5 minutes, but the joke was on them. Even on my "bad" leg I can already balance for 5 minutes.

 

You're like a highlander.
