Have you ever wondered if life would be better backwards?

You'd start out dead and get it out of the way.

Then, wake up in an old age home feeling better every day.

You get kicked out for being too healthy; go collect your pension, when you start working, they throw a party & you get a gold watch on your first day.

You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.

You drink alcohol, you party, you're generally promiscuous and you get ready for High School.

You go to primary school, you become a kid , you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a baby, and then...

You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, in spa-like conditions; central heating, room service on tap, larger quarters every day …

And then your life ends as an orgasm.

Damn Gonzo, I'm starting to think you're one of those smart, deep thinking fellows. Give me one of those gold watches and point me toward the party, and babes. And just think of the success we could have with the babes, since we now have all that experience.

I believe those were some thoughts on life by the great philosopher Woody Allen...

Another point of view on life:
At age 4 success is ... not peeing in your pants.
At age 12 success is ... having friends.
At age 16 success is ... having a drivers license.
At age 20 success is ... having sex.
At age 35 success is ... having money.
At age 50 success is ... having money.
At age 60 success is ... having sex.
At age 70 success is ... having a drivers license.
At age 75 success is ... having friends.
At age 80 success is ... not peeing in your pants.

Yo, Driven-- Could be... I was told it was written by the eminent philosopher George Carlin...

Hey, Cheapracer- As a matter of fact, I missed that one, but I understand it was a similar premise... Was it any good?

It looks like we may both be wrong...Although admittedly it does sound more Carlinesque.

Out of left field, it's...Sean Morey?

Interesting... Who the hell is Sean Morey??? (I mean, other than the comic that invented the "Living Backwards" bit.)

:cheers:

Hey Al- Imagine if the "Reverse Life" thing actually existed... You'd fall for this old Grandma, and she'd wind up being a hot 18 year old! I kinda like this system...

Yeah it was ok, worth the watch - interesting to see how they accomplish each step of the way.
