ford was a good man.... i liked him but he was in a tough situation



btw 93 is a long life imo...

i don't know a lot of people who lived longer than 100....so where does this idea that a generation is 100 years comes from

Huh? Who ever held this idea? A generation is about 30 years.

I always thought a generation was 60 years, but the dictionary says about 30.
"Everything's so clear to me now: I'm the keeper of the cheese and you're the lemon merchant. Get it? And he knows it.
That's why he's gonna kill us. So we got to beat it. Yeah. Before he let's loose the marmosets on us."

I always thought it was 20 to 40, but I don't think I've ever heard it defined properly.

Huh. I thought he was dead a long, long time ago. What the hell has he been doing for the past 2 decades?
