Is this true, Doc?<BR/><BR/>A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it,<BR/>don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually.<BR/>Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's<BR/>like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it<BR/>faster. Want to live longer?

Since the studies leading to this conclusion<BR/>were conducted by the U.S. and by Japan respectively, it might<BR/>be wise to consult the New York Stock Exchange and the Nikkei<BR/>Index before deciding when to sell!<BR/><BR/>The U.S. Bureau of Chemistry and Soils invested many a hard-<BR/>earned tax dollar in calculating the chemical and mineral<BR/>composition of the human body, which breaks down as follows:<BR/><BR/>65% Oxygen<BR/>18% Carbon<BR/>10% Hydrogen<BR/>3% Nitrogen<BR/>1.5% Calcium<BR/>1% Phosphorous<BR/>0.35% Potassium<BR/>0.25% Sulfur<BR/>0.15% Sodium<BR/>0.15% Chlorine<BR/>0.05% Magnesium<BR/>0.0004% Iron<BR/>0.00004% Iodine<BR/><BR/>Additionally, it was discovered that our bodies contain trace<BR/>quantities of fluorine, silicon, manganese, zinc, copper,<BR/>aluminum, and arsenic. Together, all of the above amounts to<BR/>less than one dollar!<BR/><BR/>Our most valuable asset is our skin, which the Japanese<BR/>invested their time and money in measuring. The method the<BR/>Imperial State Institute for Nutrition at Tokyo developed<BR/>for measuring the amount of a person's skin is to take a<BR/>naked person, and to apply a strong, thin paper to every<BR/>surface of his body. After the paper dries, they carefully<BR/>remove it, cut it into small pieces, and painstakingly total<BR/>the person's measurements. Cut and dried, the average person<BR/>is the proud owner of fourteen to eighteen square feet of<BR/>skin, with the variations. Basing the skin's value on the<BR/>selling price of cowhide, which is approximately $.25 per<BR/>square foot, the value of an average person's skin is about<BR/>$3.50.
