So the last living American WWI vet is 107 years old. He fudged his age to join the army and shipped out in 1917 at the age of 16. He was on the ship that saved the survivors from the Titanic. He was honored this week for being, well, the last man standing. Last American man standing. Read about it here.You should be more like Cantrip.  Twitchy: "I pulled a Cantrip . . ." GivePeaceAChance: "If the Tempest had nipples, I'd pinch that shit." Xylicon: "I'm about to deliver my [Richard] in your face for posting that stupid shit. " WDF?: "He keeps reaming me... night after night... I'm rather sore." GivePeaceAChance: "OMG MY NIPS ARE HARD" llenta: "cantrip, you fail!!!" Filliam H. Muffman: "i'm on top of dick"

As of this posting, Edna Parker, age 114 is the oldest person alive, born in 1893: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldest_peopleOldest from wars born 1800 or later: War of 1812: Hiram Cronk 1800-1905 Mexican-American War: Owen Thomas Edgar 1831-1929 American Civil War: Union, Albert Woolson 1847?-1956, Confederate, Pleasant Crump 1847-1951 Indian Wars: Fredrak Fraske 1872-1973 Spanish-American War: Nathan E.

That guy also said he saw Hitler and was taken prisoner. According to TV, anyway. If you support John McCain and/or George W. Bush, please click here.“I would like to say to Milton and Anna: Regarding the Great Depression. You're right, we did it. We're very sorry. But thanks to you, we won't do it again.” - Ben Bernanke

Interesting story. He looks surprisingly good for 107. This reminds me of my ancestor who was the last surviving member of the Merrimac ironclad ship. We have his 1850 Springfield gun w/bayonet up on the wall in my father's office.  get your ass to mars
