Lee Grant, is 99. I just saw that bit of info this week. What do Lee Grant and Eva Marie Saint have in common?

I don't know,but besides not having to work for a living,I haven't a clue what it could be.

Last year,she told "people" magazine how life was at 100. Now 101.

(people.com)"I certainly don’t feel 100 years old," she said. "I continue to take walks out in the fresh air, like watching baseball — especially the Los Angeles Dodgers, and enjoy time with my family and friends. A good life.”

GRA:She has that longetivity gene--Mel Brooks has it,Bob Hope had it. I KNOW I don't have it,lol.

If she still watches baseball, then not much bothers her- that's certainly the key to longevity! Giving a damn is the quick path to an early demise....

"The LA Dodgers will again be hosting the largest LGBTQ Pride Night in all of sports when the team hosts MLB rivals the San Francisco Giants on June 13..."
(NOT providing a link for this headline!).

I wish her well anyway.

Both teams wearing dresses on the field?Panty hose in (for)support?I wonder what the Jap players think of it all.

And poor Tommy Lasorda, how he loved his team! Just as well he didn't live to see what's going on now. When I read about 100-year-old veterans still alive, I couldn't begin to imagine what goes through their minds- are they traumatized by what their country has become, or just grateful to still be drawing breath?

PS- Just remembered, Lasorda (reportedly) had a gay son. That must have hurt him deeply.
