My landlord (who lives next door to me and owns his house and my house), has one leg. Not the modern prosthetics people have today, but he's had it (who knows how many years). It does not bend at the knee and when he goes under my sink to fix something, let's just say, it's a bizarre sight to see where he puts the wooden leg. He's had this since he was six years old.

He also smokes at LEAST 4 PACK OF CIGARETTES a day. I have lived here for 15 years and I've never seen him without a cigarette in his mouth. He is not allowed to smoke in my house. I actually make him put out his cigarette before he comes into my home.

HE IS 80 YEARS OLD, doesn't look a day over 65 which is the age he was when I moved to this neighborhood.

He weighs 147 and eats PASTA every day. His mother died 10 years ago at the age of 105. Oh, his son just got married (for the first time)at the age of 53 (he doesn't look a day over 35) and the wife is expecting!!!!

GENETICS ANYONE?????
