Secret to aging
Bless her little heart.....How sweet........ The secret to long life...
A doctor on his morning walk, noticed the old lady pictured above.
She was sitting on her front step smoking a cigar, so he walked up to her and said,
‘I couldnt help but notice how happy you look! What is your secret?’
‘I smoke ten cigars a day,’ she said. ‘Before I go to bed, I smoke a nice big joint.
Apart from that, I drink a whole bottle of Jack Daniels every week, and eat only junk food.
On weekends, I pop pills, have sex, and I don’t exercise at all.’
‘That is absolutely amazing! How old are you?’
‘Forty’, she replied

Just like on a car, it's not the years - it's the mileage. Don't ask how I know.

I don't know if anyone knows the secret to a long life. You witness many many people as described in the OP that really do live to a ripe old age. Then there's my 5th grade science teacher was a health nut, avid marathoner and ran 5-7 miles a day. He dropped dead of a heart attack before he was 45.

Had a health-nut friend/co-worker (ran 5 miles everyday before going to work) drop dead standing in the shower at 35 y/o!
Maybe there's something to that old adage, "Only the good die young"... 'cause I know some pretty cantankerous old curmudgeons that will probably live to 120 just to annoy a maximum number of people!

I once told a friend about my teacher and he said, "See, that's what I've always thought. When your number's up it's up, so what difference does it make?" I always thought he had the right way of thinking about it, though I'd still never walk in front of a bus or play russian roulette. That's just common sense, though....I guess that still meshes with his theory...if you are meant to have your number come up way late in life, you'll be born with common sense.

I think genetics plays a lot into longevity.

Distance runners often die young. They literally wear out their hearts.

LOL that was a good joke!
I love the picture too, but I dont think it fits - when I look at the picture I see a woman that's up in years but because she's wearing a crown she must still be quite a character. A young soul in an old body 
I guess you can tell I work with a lot of seniors... lol
