It’s probably great exercise for an older person.

Take a look at the video. Don’t worry. It’s not nearly as frightening as it first may sound. The old gal is still quite spritely, sports a six-pack, has danced for one of the Popes, I think she said this. Her speech is a little bit slurred, but her moves are graceful, mind still sharp.
Still,,,maybe for her next birthday, Granny can show us some of her dynamite knitting maneuvers, the moves that nobody teaches you anymore.

“You gotta know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em . . . “

At her age, she holds 'em, folds 'em, tucks them back in, and keeps dancing...

Interesting lady. Thank you for the ping.

She’s in very good shape for 100 years of age.

More power to her. ;-)

The second “W” was for “with,” not “without!”

Ugh.
