He was the Captain of a cargo ship.
As part of the industry requirement,
annual health check-ups were
compulsory for the staff. In preparation
for this, he went to his family doctor
for a routine visit and found that his
cholesterol was quite high. The doctor

said, “I am prescribing a pill to help you

to lower the cholesterol”.

“How long do I have to take the pill?”

the Captain asked.

“Lifelong,” was the doctor’s reply.
