Once again, I have a reason to post about what is pretty much the mascot of this site. You know,
Walter Breuning.
He reached 114 today, the fifth man to indisputably do so. As that is a milestone in itself, I don’t think I should dedicate a post to the birthday alone, for the sake of not being overkill. However, a few days ago he answered some questions on video from those who asked through the
site of his retirement home:
I asked three questions, one of them was sent (at least I believe it’s mine), at 4:23. From that, I’ve disputably contacted someone from the nineteenth century (and crossed the corresponding task off my
100 things list). I think that’s something worth bragging about, even though most don’t see how there’s even a point in mentioning.
Happy birthday, Walter. Please don’t let it be your last.
