Happy Monday, Here's A Reason To Wear Sunscreen

While we may not aspire to have reach the Snooki level of tan-ness, I think most of us would agree that we look much better with a little color. But before you lather up the tanning oil and park yourself at the beach for the summer, check this out. And then stock up on some SPF 80 and a big ol' hat.

This is a 69-year old man who worked as a truck driver for almost 30 years and never wore sunscreen. Notice how the left side of his face (the one that faced the sun) has much more extensive sun damage and aging than the left side.

The sun damage was so extensive, the man was even featured in this month's New England Journal of Medicine.

Anyone else down to go get some spray tans?
