I think it's cool that Stan Lee is still around, and going on 96 this year. It was in 1992 that I first starting reading Marvel Comics - when I was 10 years old. To think that Lee was turning 70 that year...meanwhile it was almost a lifetime ago for me.
I think it's cool that there are people like Stan Lee and Betty White who have been SO OLD for as long as I have been alive, and are still themselves alive. I only ever remember them as being older, yet they are still here. My grandmother is sort of an example of that. I met her in 1989, just a couple of months before she turned 57. She will be 86 in September.
I try not to - and don't think I do this as much as many other people do - but I sometimes take life for granted, and take certain people for granted. Especially those who have been around seemingly forever. Ironically, the ones most likely to pass away relatively soon.
