I just finished “Lady Triumphant” last week.

She was just an aspirated corpse for the final decade or two, a fate I wouldn't wish on anyone. Just smother me with a pillow when I can no longer get out of bed.

I was recently reading about Sarah Knauss, the oldest-lived American and third* overall, who was born on September 24, 1880 and died on December 30, 1999 (aged 119 years, 97 days).

She almost made it to 2000. Just two more days!

*France's Jeanne Calment (1875-1997; 122 years, 164 days) is #1 and Japan's Kane Tanaka (1903-2022; 119 years, 107 days) is #2
