My Decade of Turning 50

Another scary thing about turning 50 years old — now I find out my heart will inevitably and, as the article says, inexplicably strink — something researchers are calling the “age 50 effect.”

Note to researchers: You need to be more creative with your names. How about “The Reverse Grinch Effect” — your heart strinks three sizes instead of growing.

Or maybe “Old Fart Heart.” Now that’s catchy.
