Grandmother on TV

[SCCutler]

My wife's Grandmother, in Tallahassee, is going to be featured in a Barbara Walters special on aging, scheduled to air in March (by which time she will be 101 years old).

Barbara Walters / ABC News flew her (and several other centenarians) to NYC for wining and dining and interviews last month, and Barbara was so charmed, that she decided to fly a crew to Tallahassee to tape her in her home environment.

Marathon Mike has met her, and she is well and truly a piece of work.

Naw, it was on (I think) US Airways.

That's fantastic... to have seen all the events and things she has...

Very Cool!

Well, I guess you have to do a lot of cooperating on US Airways!!

 

[Lawreston]

What's a cooperative jet? Is that the latest category of shared ownership?

Spike,

Good on your Grandmother!!! I'd like to meet her someday. Very cool.


Hmmmm. Where will her 101'st birthday be held? Maybe a trip in the Bonanza is in order.

Spike, she is so COOL! What an energetic and positive woman! We should learn from her!

Let us know when the show will be on.

I'm off to drink more water at her suggestion!
