NEW DELHI (Reuters) - An 88-year-old Indian farmer, who has never heard of viagra, became the father of a baby boy and has sex daily and wants more kids, The Times of India reported on Tuesday.

"I don't want to live to 100 but, as long as I live, I should be able to enjoy sex," Virmaram Jat, who lives in a village in the Barmer district in the western desert sate of Rajasthan, was quoted in the newspaper as saying.

The prosperous farmer, with a flowing white beard and a weather-beaten face, says he takes long walks everyday and has been drinking fresh camel milk since childhood.

The paper reported his latest wife -- his third -- is 45 years younger than him and delivered male twins last month, but only one boy survived.

But Jat celebrated the birth of the surviving son with a feast for villagers and said he will try for more children.

The octogenarian, who is a vegetarian and has never smoked cigarettes or drunk alcohol, is ready to share his knowledge with others.

"I do it daily and the best time for intercourse is between 2:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m.," Jat, whose first wife, 85, still lives with him and his new wife, told the newspaper.

It isn't the camel milk that's doing the trick. The old man has a dirty mind, and his new wife is probably cheating on him. /cynicism

Yeah, but if you don't drink alcohol and you don't smoke, what occasion do you have to be awake at two to four in the morning?

BUDHIA KA TALA (BARMER): Eighty-eight years young! Virmaram Jat has every reason to feel that way. Far from the world of artificial inseminations and Viagra, this farmer settled in a border hamlet in the midst of sand dunes, in Barmer district of Rajasthan, has become the proud father of a baby boy.

Villagers couldn't stop marvelling at his "feat" and word spread quickly when Virmaram's third wife, Gammo Devi, who is 45 years younger to him, delivered male twins on July 19.

Though one of the babies was a stillborn, Virmaram is happy that at least one of his sons survived and hosted a grand feast for 900 people to celebrate.

"I am happy the Almighty eventually answered my prayers. I wish the other child had also survived. Then my happiness would have doubled," he said, briskly striding over to meet us from a neighbouring hamlet where he had gone visiting.

Wielding a mighty lathi and caressing a flowing white beard, he related the story of his life. "I am a farmer with simple needs. Ever since childhood I drink fresh camel milk - sometimes two to three litres a day.

I am a vegetarian and eat regular three meals comprising chappatis, bajra, curd and other milk preparation. I also walk about 10 to 35 km daily," he said.

"My first wife, Maloo Devi, insisted that I marry again when she couldn't bear me a child," he said, recounting how she went about arranging his second marriage with the daughter of her nephew.

However, his second wife, Jamna Devi, who was only 22 when he married her, also remained issueless and died at the age of 45. Again, it was his first wife who went bride-hunting and settled an alliance with the young daughter of a poor farmer.


As Virmaram was reasonably well off with 450 bighas of land and also owned a number of cows, goats and camels, Gammo Devi's parents agreed to the match and Virmaram was married once again in 1984. His firstborn was a daughter, who is now 16 years old. However, Virmaram's yearning for a son never went away.

His first wife, who is now 85 years old, also continues to live with him and and even helped deliver the baby boy in their mud house. The baby was taken to a hospital in Jodhpur for a check-up, where doctors assured the family that the child has no congenital defect.

"I am overjoyed. My husband had a daughter from Gammo Devi, but he wanted a male child and God has been kind to him. To Gammo Devi, I am both mother-in-law and an elder sister," said frail and wrinkled Maloo Devi.

Virmaram is a respected member of his community and people often approach him with problems or for assistance in solving disputes. A secret of his good health, he said, is that he has never touched alcohol or smoked cigarettes or bidis.

Also, his vigour and vitality are a result of the habit of drinking camel's milk, he added. "Apart from all this, there should be an urge within you to enjoy a full life. I don't want to live for 100 years, but my desire is that as long as I live I should be able to enjoy my sexual life."

He is critical of the age-old tradition of "brahmcharya" and said sex is a natural process and only those who have lost their physical prowess talk of "brahmcharya." "I do it daily and the best time for intercourse is between 2 am and 4 am," he said.

Virmaram is not worried about the upbringing of his son, but he wants him to be educated. "I had adopted my nephew Sera Ram, who is now 60, and he has promised that he will bring up my son as his own child.

Ours is a close-knit 14-member family and all of us eat and live together. This bond has only strengthened with the birth of my son," he said. As a parting shot, he added, "I will try to have more children. It is up to God whether he blesses me with a son or daughter the next time round."

I'll tell you a funny story about goat milk.

There was a small island in Pago Pago Harbor, American Samoa. On that island there was the officers' club.

The new Navy commander's wife, I guess he was an Admiral... Well, his wife liked goat's milk and there happened to be a herd of goats on one of the nearby islands. The Admiral, thinking to impress his wife, ordered some of the men to go fetch a goat and put it up on the island with the officers' club.

Well, as things go - the men performed the mission with efficiency and soon enough there was a goat munching grass on the island.

Unfortunately for the Admiral's wife, male goats don't give milk.

Bang? I don't even have any idea how long it's been (Bang!) since they were running those ads (Bang!). I'm not even sure they're even in business anymore (Bang!). But that was one of my favorite commercials ever on the Rome show (Bang!), with the possible exception of the one Jim cut for Carfax.com ("How do you know I didn't drop the engine from my Merkur into your sled?"). (Bang!)

During Renaissance such virility was usually attributed to the use of "Indian grass" [cannabis indica]- see Rabelais' Panurg, for example.

Ahhhhh...the medicinal qualities of cannabis go WAYYYYY back in time. I searched for Rabelais' Panurg, but the pages were in a foreign language. Russian, perhaps?
