  1. Kane Tanaka, born in 1903 and world’s oldest person, celebrates 119th birthday in nursing home

     

    The longest verified human lifespan is that of Jeanne Calment of France (1875–1997), who lived to age 122 years and 164 days. She supposedly met Vincent van Gogh when she was 12 or 13.[1] She received news media attention in 1985, after turning 110. Subsequent investigation found documentation for Calment's age, beyond any reasonable question, in the records of her native city, Arles, France.[2]More evidence of Calment's lifespan has been produced than for any other supercentenarian, such that her case serves as an archetype in the methodology for verifying the ages of the world's known oldest people.[3][a]

    SOME THINGS TO PONDER AS WE AGE

    The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54
    The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57
    The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41
    The best soccer player in the world, Maradona, died at the age of 60
    And then..
    KFC inventor died at 94
    Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88
    Cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102
    The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 - in an earthquake
    Hennessy cognac, Irish inventor, died at 98

    How did doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?

    The rabbit is always jumping, but it lives for only 2 years. The turtle that doesn't exercise at all, lives 400 years.

    So …Have a drink ...Take a nap ...
    And when you wake up, have bacon and eggs!

    Happy New Year.

    Sat there once in mid 30s few years back. I came in a coat, hoodie, sweater and tee shirt. Ended first quarter in just t shirt.

    I wonder if they are just too old now.

     

    When they were first installed, people in the 100 level said they could feel the heat from them.

    Most games you can. But when the wind comes in it can be cold. 
     

    heated seats never worked very good.

    The only 2 losses we didn't have a late shot at were Pittsburgh and Indy.  Against Jacksonville, Tennessee, New England, and Tampa Bay we had the ball late with a shot at taking a lead if not a walk-off win.

    You should have take the skirt off   Would have gotten us the wins. 🤓

    I moved in with girlfriend in Massachusetts a couple years ago- I need to lose her and get on with my life.   I love NH - not a lot of jobs.  I checked out Burlington Vermont- $1500 studio apartments - too rich for me.  I checked out Massachusetts and Pennsylvania- pricey.

    Buffalo- bargain!  I moved from Buffalo 1979 to Connecticut.  The day we moved there was a tornado- maybe that was a message lol.  So like the salmon returning, I’m strongly considering Buffalo.  I need to get out of here ASAP.  
    Buffalo is a world class city imo.  Museums, architecture, culture. 
    So I’ve been looking at jobs, apartments, and moving costs.

    So if anyone could give me any tips - where to live, moving, jobs, I’d greatly appreciate.  
    thank you Bills brothers and sisters!

    Move to Saratoga

    On Wednesday, my youngest daughter gave birth to her first child and newest Bills fan.

    Baby girl.  I offered the name Jill, but that was voted down.

    Mom, dad and baby are home and doing well, except for that sleep deprivation thing that 

    comes with a new born.

    This is my daughter and SIL that hiked the Appalachian Trail several years ago.

    I guess they are on a new trail now. 

    Awesome. I remember the Hike
