15. I've known three people who got shingles.

After the most recent one -- an otherwise very healthy 60-year-old who missed weeks of work and social activities due to the horrible rash and pain -- I made a bee-line for a CVS drug store in my area, where the shingles shot was FREE thanks to my insurance plan.

Whew! One less thing to worry about.
