He looks pretty good for 107.
Best quote ever from a centenarian.
When asked how people could live so long, he replied, “Drink a quart of sour mash whiskey and smoke a pack of cigarettes a day.”
The surprised interviewer blurted out, “Really?”
To which the centenarian replied, “No, of course not. Don’t be gullible and stupid and you might live as long as me.”
Great story.
He looks great, smiling and seating on the stairs! I sure hope someone does something for him - even sit on the stairs and chat. Sure wish I could. I’d be honored to light his cigar for him.
Great story..Thanks for posting.
I got to meet the last Confederate Veteran and last veteran of the Civil War period. He was Uncle Bill Lundy of Crestview, Florida. I don’t recall his exact age but it was well over 100.
There were two who lived after him but I am pretty sure both were eventually found to be fakes.
Still doing yard work! I guess that’s why he looks to be in his seventies, or thereabouts.
God bless him.
Great! Thanks for posting
Just so happens I’m sipping on a little whishy stiffend coffee right now.
