The American Airlines in-flight magazine has a warning about Deep Vein Thrombosis. Among the risk factors for DVT, it lists "increasing age."
My age increases at a rate of one hour per hour. I understand that's about average. I suppose that since people in my situation have a 100% mortality rate, I shouldn't be too surprised that it's considered a hazard.
My comments form now uses Markdown formatting syntax EXCLUSIVELY. If you use HTML in your comments (or indeed <pointy brackets> for any reason at all) you will be assumed to be a spambot, and your entire comment will be consigned to the Great Howling Internet Void. If you want to get fancy, have a look at the cheatsheet or the full description. Otherwise just type away.
Good Catch by Harry:
Yes, beyond a certain point "increasing age" is an unhappy condition. That same warning in the AA flight magazine cracked me up on a trip home yesterday so much that I ripped the page out of the magazine and brought it home.
