I Had No Idea They Are Still Alive

When someone in the media celebrates their 100th birthday generally people think Wow! That's terrific. But I had no idea he/she was still alive. There are several former stars who have or will soon reach the century mark. Eva Marie Saint is there now but will hit 101 on July 4. Dick Van Dyke will [hopefully] reach 100 this December. June Lockhart will hit triple digits in June. David Attenborough recently turned 99 and Mel Brookes reaches 99 in June. Others who still have a few years to go but are getting close include Tippi Hedron [95] Clint Eastwood [94] Leslie Caron, Angie Dickinson, Barbara Eden [93] and Willie Nelson, Carol Burnett [92] No idea if I will get that close. Probably not. I consume too much of all the Canada Food Guide wrong things and not enough of the right things.

TBF - Willie has consumed many, many things so you probably have a chance.

And then there's Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, who just celebrated his 241st birthday.

"Keef" doesn't look a day older than 240.

I have never consumed any of those many, many things that may have been of questionable legality.
