bullshite. I plan to still be active. My grandparents were.


My great Aunt Lena lived to 104 and drove herself to the old folks home every Saturday to "play the piano for the old folks" until she was 99.

My Grandfather was still bushogging the pasture, riding his four wheeler to the back of the property and pretty much whatever else he wanted to do at 85.

My Grandmother on the other side died abruptly from heart failure at 79 but was wide open until that last week.

I just turned 80 - I don't think about death. It's probably going to happen, but until it does I'll enjoy life.

I’m a believer. And I have faith in God and his son. I’m not sure wtf you’re questioning me about. The hunting and fishing part? It was a joke.
