106 Years Old and Still Bashing Bush
From my alma mater's alumni magazine:

http://www.swarthmore.edu/bulletin/index.php?id=338

Grace Conner Monteith turned 106 last July.
She is outspoken on people and politics and is quite unhappy and vocal about President George W. Bush.

Grace firmly believes the U.S. troops should withdraw from Iraq.

“I think it’s a terrible thing having all those people going over to Iraq. The world seems more vicious today,” she said.

She wondered if President Bush might acknowledge her birthday milestone with a card but then said, “I’d probably send it back.”

“I keep telling her, ‘Hang on, mother, he just has three more years to go, and then there will be someone new,’” said her daughter Ann Martin, 81.
Myself, I think getting W out early would be a perfectly wonderful 107th birthday present for her!

1. I know someone who went to Swarthmore
I'm pretty sure he graduated around 1984 or so.

Good school.

4. Anybody who doesn't like Oprah and Dr Phil

definitely still has to be in full possession of their faculties, 106 or not.
