So, "Little Joe's" SON was 60.

Sigh.

Gad, if Michael Landon were still alive, I would have guessed he’d be in his sixties by now. But to have a son that age... wow, Landon was older than I thought.

Stunning that his son was 60! Wow. I thought he would be about 40-45. Guess I’m getting old.

Per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Landon, Michael Landon was born in 1936. So he’d be 73 today. He was a father at 13? ...Um... This son must have been adopted.

He adopted Mark Landon after marrying his mother, Dodie Levy-Fraser, in 1956.

Michael Landon was born 31 October, 1936 — that would make him 73.

The child was adopted, so I guess Michael was a young adult and the kid in his teens?

Wow! I was in love with Michael Landon. Does that mean he’d be around 80 if he were alive today?

Michael Landon was only 55 when he died so we still see him that way IMHO.

Yeah, that’s more shocking than Michael Jackson turning 50.

Well, the truth is truthguy, we are ALL getting old. I’m a college student now and had a pair of shoes fall apart in class - they were loafers I bought about 20 plus years ago. One of the kids was laughing with me about it and I said, “These shoes are older than you honey.”

73 and probably still good looking like Tony Curtis has been in his latter years.

Thanks. Noted it from other posts after I posted. That makes me feel a little better. I wish they’d bring back shows like Bonanza or Little House on the Prairie. Everything is reality shows and I don’t need to watch reality, I LIVE it.
