I have a way to go yet…
Grandad October 11th, 2007
I wandered over to Poodwaddle.
I know that sounds like some place in the Australian Outback, but it isn’t. It’s a weird site that has all sorts of clocks on it.
I went to the Age Calculator.
I put in my age, and then answered all 33 or 34 questions. I didn’t lie. I told the absolute truth. I even told the truth about my smoking.
Interesting.
Apparently, my Virtual Age [which is apparently the state of physical health of my body] is only 40.9. Sure I’m only a nipper!!
The other thing though, is that apparently my life expectancy is 94.1. I like the 0.1 - it means I can calculate to the month.
This means I have another 30 to 40 years to go [assuming Ron or the CIA don't get me first].
Will my pension last that long?
Can you put up with me for that long?
Can I put up with me for that long?
-oOo-
Damnit!!
As soon as I posted this they removed the clock out of Poodwaddle, for legal reasons.
They give an alternative site, so I took the test there.
That gives me a physical Age of 36.5 !!! I’ve just gained four and a half years 
And my life expectancy has shot up to 99. Wow. I might get the telegram from the Pres yet…

Putting up with you for that long shouldn’t be a problem provided of course that we live that long too.
I took a wander over to that site but the age clock is gone because of some sort of patent dispute
Robert - That clock has been there for ages!! They chose the day I posted about it to take it down….
I have amended my post and given another link, which gives me even longer.
well, hell.
according to that dang clock i’m to live until 105. which means i’ve only got 8 more years. balls.
Keep looking. You might find a clock that gets you down to 21.
Doc - First thing you do is get out a 40 year loan……….
Bock - I don’t want to go too far back. Then I’d have to go back to school again. I could do without that.

Now that would be some sight!
Mmmm I am 19 repeat 19….my husband is a dirty old man, or I am a trophy wife…HELP…
My health age is 10!! And I’m going to live until I’m 93!! I challenge anyone to beat that. I swear to god I was completely honest.
There ya go, Natalie and Red. Haven’t I made your day!!
That and the fact that it’s Friday.
You mean you aren’t happy every day, Red?
Happiness adds years to your life
