I wonder if they did statistics on people who have been killed skiing, with a gun whilst smoking .......... now that would be an interesting read .......
And texting. Skiing, with a gun, whilst smoking and texting. Pretty sure anyone who does that has a 100% chance of dying. Like the rest of us.

If you add up all the things I do that will make me die (like drinking alcohol and coffee, having a cigar etc), apparently my chances of dying top out at over 300%! I guess there is no getting around it. Yup. I'm going to die.
