OK Being serious for a moment. Most of you know I came real close to buying the farm recently.
I was fortunate that I got things checked in time. My heart just was not able to keep up with demand.

As we get older many things don't perform as well as they used to and it's very easy to say "ah well, sucks to get old"
With respect to erectile performance, as the cialis ad says " it may be a matter of blood flow."
If your heart isn't up to snuff, you may be able to notice it.
So think of your peter meter as an indicator of how well your heart is working.
If it's not pointing up to good health, mention it to your doctor. It might just save your life.

and the resumption of blood flow ain't bad either

Very well put. I will also add, everyone should be getting an annual physical. I have lost two friends that might not have happened if they simply got an annual blood test and exam.

I see my doc every 6 months and have blood work done before I see him. Prevention is the key.

Make sure you get your PSA test as well.

I suppose I will have to borrow someone's peter meter.

In all seriousness though, thanks for the PSA. Good reminder.
