At 102 she could whip your fanny in a game of "42," and worked every crossword puzzle 'til she finished it.<br /><br />Of course, she was about half coonass.<br /><br />Buck, I picked up on some of that myself (refer to my comment to Moogie). My Great Grandmother was fascinated by space travel, microwave ovens, and medical advances. I don't think "bottled Coke" would have been in her top 10.<br /><br />Jim, "Amazing," indeed...the televised news reports last night were just astounding. The lady is quite "something" for sure...Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-24305794163216712272010-04-01T15:17:28.394-05:002010-04-01T15:17:28.394-05:00Happy Birthday to her!

I suppose ya gotta differentiate between the living and the dead. Makes me wonder who keeps track of the oldest dead person, tho.<br /><br /><i>Throughout her lifetime, Winn witnessed... the invention of the television, the first bottled Coca-Cola and countless other important milestones in American history.</i><br /><br />Yeah, like space flight, polio vaccine, and computers. All of which pale beside bottled coke.
