First Bowie, now this!

Dang!

That kind of longevity blows me away. Imagine being alive through almost the entire 20th century and then well into the 21st. The things he must have seen. He was already 40 years old when David Bowie was just being born!

My grandmother lived to be 98 and in one of my last conversations with her, she told me what it was like to live with no running water, no electricity, and automobiles were so rare that when they came by, everybody ran out of the house to see it. This was in the early 2000s and she still remembered all that. She bootlegged whiskey during Prohibition and had her own still!
