Today I found out that there is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by 2040, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them. And that really disgusts me, because if that much isn't going towards

What that means to me

People are selfish. They always have been, and always will be. No one wants to donate money or become an activist for a cause until it directly affects them. And everyone is guilty of this, including me. I am much more interested in cancer and genetics reaserch since my aunt died of ovarian cancer a year ago...

I just don't understand why people have to be so caught up with looking "beautiful" and staying young forever. Looking younger doesn't mean you'll live longer, it means your face is living a lie. Why does looking good have to be such an obsession? I understand being healthy as an obsession- healthy people tend to live longer, happier lives. It's prevention for disease and early death to live a healthy life. But being healthy isn't usually defined with plastic.

ok...I've vented now:-) Thanks
