Figures to consider

Posted by Jonny D on Monday, 3. October 2005 at 13:45 Bali Time:

I know people have decided to cancel their holidays because they dont feel safe in Bali, I can appreciate that, who wants to put their family at risk ??? But consider the below figures compiled from reliable sources WHO etc.

Deaths Worlwide Per Year

Smoking - 4,000,000
Alcohol - 1,800,000
Drugs - 1,200,000
Homicide - 530,000
Road Related - 500,000
Flu - 500,000
AIDS - 3,000,000
Heart Disease- 7,100,000

TERRORISM - 1000

I know a lot of people entertain this eternal life fantasy, but lets be honest if cancelling your holiday to Bali will extend your life a few years you might want to; stop eating fatty food, stop smoking, stop drinking, stop having sex, dont drive anywhere and dont breathe

....wouldn't life suck,
I usually try and combine all those activities in the average day....(or all at once ;))

Yeah think I will take my chances with the terrorism bit me thinks....I like those odds !!!

Roll on February
