I was going to cite the “I can’t die” quip but I see AP has already used it. RIP. 96 is still quite an accomplishment although it should be noted that George Burns smoked cigars all his life and lived to be even older.

I remember watching him as a kid on a black and white TV. RIP Mr. LaLanne.

I'd be happy to reach 96! But two things: the older I get, the more I realize that 1) stress and worry will age you, and 2) diet and exercise are important, but so are indulging a bit and relaxing.

We're fortunate that we don't have hardship and malnutrition to shorten our years the way our ancestors did. But sloth and a poor diet will do you in pretty quick, too!
