She is awesome. And right. It's luck. Pure and simple. I'm a little more than half her age and fighting the wheelchair. But it also helps to love life. Loving life makes you feel lucky even if you ain't.

She's a real treasure. I loved the soliloquy on Jewish humor. She should loose those glasses, but you don't say that to a woman who is 102.

Need More Time? 2015 gives you 'leap second'!
[h=1]Why 2015 Will Be One Second Longer Than 2014[/h]You won’t get an extra full day added to your year until February 29, 2016. But this year we at least get to have a leap second.

It’s about time! The clock that keeps the entire U.S. ticking
have you ever wondered where time actually comes from? In this episode of “Power Players,” we ventured to the U.S. Naval Observatory in search of answers.
Situated atop a hill overlooking much of Washington, D.C., the observatory is perhaps best known as the home of the vice president’s mansion, but it is also home to the nation’s master clock. Every time you turn on your cell phone or plug an address into your car’s GPS, you are actually communicating with the Naval Observatory.
