I was happy to read that you enjoyed your defrosted pancakes

I had similar musings myself:

Here, here! As a graduate of the once top rated California public school system, I can tell you there’s nothing wrong with your grammar in the first paragraph. I’d have misspelled several words saying that if not for spellcheck. So speaks I with the math gene, not the English gene.

You can add Sir David Attenborough 97 to that list. Still narrating and producing as of earlier this year.

I’d attribute all good health and longevity to the blueberry.

Oxford, Nova Scotia is Canada's wild blueberry capital, complete with the giant blueberry statue. (I was even photographed hugging it.)

Thanks, Michael, for your wisdom. I, too, am a blueberry devotee (mostly frozen at this time of year). And of course I missed a ton of super-agers so thanks for adding to the list. I’ve been thinking perhaps I will include a few more names each time I post. Then this morning Robert Reich devotes his Substack to the subject of aging. Hope you can read it too.
