Surviving the Ads

An observation: When I have the joy of watching television without having it recorded on DVR, I get to watch all of the ways we can die, unless we do certain things.
My favorite is basically, "If you don't exercise, you will die!" Okay, our bodies need to move. Doctors say walking is the best activity of all, especially for seniors. I can manage that, and I walk the golf course several times a week. (Damn near kills me)
Back to the point. Note that many of these ads are "fear ads"..."You're going to die!" Well, fear, as we all know, builds stress. Stress...here it comes...kills! So the fear message drives fear which drives stress which will probably kill you faster than not exercising. 
So, walk as you can and liberally use your DVR or your mute button when you watch television.
