centenarians Living in Three Centuries : The Face of Age super-centenarians
# 90 
110 year 115 day-old*
man of German and Irish descent.
Several of his grandparents lived past 100.

He served in the Army in World Wars I and II 
and then worked as a railroad brakeman.
During the Depression 
he traveled much of the country 
riding the rails with hobos.

At 102, he was walking ten miles a day.
Now he walks three miles a day and can still 
read the bottom three lines on an eye chart.
He gave up drinking in his 60s,
but smoked into his 80s.

He continues to work a few hours a week 
at a tanning salon/espresso cafe.

He said, "I still chase 
good-looking women around.
I just can't catch up with them —
my legs don't work fast enough."
