World's oldest man dies at 113

Allingham, who was the world's oldest man when he died Saturday at 113, attributed his remarkable longevity to "cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women."

I am doomed.

I don't smoke, but the whiskey and women are okay by me.

Ambrosia · Jul 18, 2009

I wonder if being a 'wild, wild woman' counts. I could practice.

I'm gonna be immortal...

Me too. Damn. I guess I could drink whiskey.

Ooooh the wild women bit sounds good. I'm willing to test that theory, in the name of science, of course. :hooray:

You can join Angie and me when we run amok.

Is running amok wild enough? Or do we have to run amok without any clothes on?

Raindrop... in the name of science, of course!

You probably won't feel like that when you're 80.

And Kevin, your picture is freaking me out.

I kinda like it. It's a big improvement over the crazed clown.

Ewwww. No...I don't like it.

Can't you go back to the Dalai Lama one you had ages ago? I always noticed him. He's uber-cool.

I don't drink or smoke, but I'm hoping to find enough wild women to help me live to 113.

How does that Rolling Stones ballad go?

"Wild women couldn't drag me away.
"Wild, wild women - we'll ride them someday."

spamwarrior · Jul 18, 2009

I'll just continue running amok, meanwhile.

spamwarrior · Jul 18, 2009

Waiddaminnit. You mean those fancy expensive creams with fancy fake science names don't work?

The secret to longevity is to live a really long time. That's way more profound than the guy's quote, in a cause-and-effect sort of way.
