a) she is 65.

Based on Tom's link, she was 65 in 1965. Haven't a clue who she was. Oh yea, based on RIP, that would be "was". For instance, my oldest sister was 20 years older than me, today I'm 17 years older than she was. If I double my current age, I'll outlive Grace, very doubtful that will happen.

Hadn't thought about her in years! R.I.P.
Yeah I could image her being that old she acted in, "A view to a kill" in 1985!

I saw the story on Auntie yesterday. 113. Apparently she was still "with it". A plucky old girl. I bet she could of told a story or two about life in the 20th C.

If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

She looks really pale in the picture, so she must have been ill.

I also apologize for completely forgetting to mention that the other day was 11/12/13, but we'll get it again next month, so I have another chance.

Another chance for what? 12/12/13? 12/13/13?
Wouldn't the next real chance be in almost 13 months? IE 12/13/14? Next chance after that is in almost 90 years: 1/2/3. I can hope the web and CP still exist then, I'm pretty sure they'll both exist at the next chance.

Wait, are these other chances less than 90 years from now? 1/2/34? 1/23/45? 12/3/45 Smile | :)

Depends on where you are in the world, doesn't it?

The US-ians have had their fun with "November 12th 2013".

UK-ians are about to get 11th of November 2013.

The Japanese are a bit stuck because we have either 25th year of Heisei November 12th or 2013 November 12th, neither of which work particularly well...

Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike... me...

No, you got it right. The other error he had was UKians when he meant to say, the rest of the world.

True. When will the rest of the world wake up and realize the fastest changing value to the slowest in left to right order doesn't make sense... Big Grin | :-D

We USA'ns do like to bury our heads in the sand. Long live the foot!(Ugh. Our CDE's marathon is measured in KM, cones in M and clearance in CM. Why use a rational measurement when the irrational ones work? Sort of.)

Well, Celsius is based on impure water at sea-level! (Think of the accidents when distilled water is heated in the microwave and bursts into steam when sugar is added. Saw that one on Myth Busters. Would the rest of the world even know about M-B?)

True that, since "me" used the local date format, didn't even think of the alternate dd/mm/yy format.

Melanoma excised, along with a lymph node or two.

My wife made me do it.

"Go to the doctor."

"I will."

"Go to the doctor."

"I will."

"Go to the doctor."

"Oh, okay. Sheesh."

I gave it about 10 years or so to go away on its own. It didn't.
