The other day I was in my favorite steakhouse, wherein I spied a man in his 80s, possibly 90s, who could barely walk to the table and barely take a seat. He placed his order, and then sat, barely upright, sipping water. 20 minutes later, his order arrived: A steak fit for Conan the Barbarian and a glass of Merlot that almost appeared to be a double. I thought to myself -- "there you have it: You are either alive or dead, it's a binary thing, and so long as you are alive, you might as well live".
