Writer's Block: Who Wants To Live Forever?

[Error: unknown template qotd]

No, I wouldn't want to live forever. My answer doesn't change if everyone could live forever, either--plus, the planet would get very crowded, very quickly if everyone kept on living, didn't age after a certain point, and kept on having kids.

However, thanks to the title of this Writer's Block, I do have the urge to rewatch a few episodes of Highlander.

I agree. In fact, the older I get, the more in touch I am with my spiritual side. I'm sure Jerry's death has something to do with it. But I would not want to live forever and continue to lose people. Have to work for hundreds of years, struggle with wars and poverty and nuclear threats. One of the great things about Highlander was the fact that they looked at those questions honestly and the answer wasn't always easy.

Now I want to watch a few episodes.
