My crusty 97 year old Grandma

AaronP

Diamond Member
has lived during the times of:

The Great SF Earthquake
The Titanic
WW1
The stock market crash
the depression
WW2
The Korean War
Vietnam
and now this bombing.

and she's still kicking and her mind is as sharp as ever too, she's totally aware of what's going on. hehe I bet that lady has seen The Price is Right 10,000 times. It's unbelievable that my grandma who I see like every weekend and she even comes over and watches football with us sometimes was alive when before Airplanes were invented and was an adult by the time Babe Ruth started playing baseball. Simply mind blowing. Hell She was a grandmother by the time of the Eisenhower administration! JESUS.
 
jesus she even makes greeting cards on my mom's computer with Hallmark Create a Card software all by herself and she was alive 30 years before televisions were invented.
 
all you listed were the casualities of this past 97 years - how about the goods times?

WW1 victory day
Roaring 20s
WW2 victory day
Black & White TVs then Color TVs
Cell phones
Computers! 🙂
Fax machines
Baby boom
Greatest economy in the end of 90s

I'm sure there are a bunch of of other great things that she has lived to see as well. Now the question is, does she have great grand-kids? 😉
 
yeah, that is pretty crazy.. what about the cold war? you missed that one😀 hehe
maybe you should change the title too..

nehow, first post in a long time!! (for me)
 
her and my grandfather's total offspring (kids, grandkids, great grandkids.....) is over 100 people. She had 9 kids, each of them averaged like 3 kids each, each of them.... She doesn't do birthday cards anymore because she would have to do like 2 a week EVERY WEEK!

My other grandma on the other hand only has two grandkids total, me and my sister.

I think I wanna have a lot of kids so once I get through the misery of raising 10 kids, I'll have a great support system when I'm crusty and old.
 
yeah, she's a freak, she hasn't even had a cold in years, she is on NO MEDICATION whatsoever, and she has zero medical problems. She's healthier than I am! She's even outlived some kids and grandkids. Some of her sons (my uncles) are in their 70's now and their health is worse than hers.

BTW, she drinks one beer a day. I always ask her if she wants a second beer and she always says, "nope, just one for me today."
 
the greatest wrestler EVER! hehe I know who he is. I DOUBT SHE WOULD

It's funny though, I was jokin around andasked her "Grandma, do you remember the Lucitania" and she responded "yeah, I remember that, but we went over their and kicked the Kaiser's ass." It just blew me away.
 
hahahaha!! ROFLMAO!!! that's too funny..... 😀😀 funny post. great post in a long while. alright, gotta piss. had way too much beer today. had beer for breakfast too! 🙂 geez, I really gotta cut back. maybe like 1 a day like yo grandma 🙂
 
The Price is Right is really addictive, if I'm flicking channels and its on, and I have nothing else to do, it will suck me right in.
