Two mysteries of aging – solved
Two mysteries of aging – solved
A friend of mine named Albert turned 50 earlier this year. A couple of years ago he started wearing reading glasses. And while he’s still in good shape, he may have added just a few extra pounds around the middle over the past decade.
But he believes he’s figured out what’s going on.
In a recent e-mail, Albert wrote: “Here’s my new theory on why people get wider and gain weight as they get older. Since their friends’ eyesight gets worse as they get older, people need to get bigger so they can be seen the same by their friends. Makes sense doesn’t it?”
Makes PERFECT sense! Especially if you’re past 50.
