81 for me. 98 for Mrs. Noah. We're the same age, now. Now I'm in trouble w/her for another thing--leaving her alone for 17 yrs. Crap, more stress!

On a side note, I just caught "The Notebook" on cable last night, where the couple die in bed together of old age. Where's that thread about movies that always make you cry?

89 for me. Which is good for me because my invesment advisor told me if I live past 90 there could be a problem.
Not eating fruit and vegtables knocked 2 years off my life.

88, pretty good estimate given that my Dad made it to 84

89 for me. It will be here before I'm ready...

My parents are in their mid 80's and my mom's parents made it to 89 each.

It said I'll make 89. Umm, unlikely. My dad died at 59 and he had cut back to only 5 litres of wine a day. And my Mom died at 68. Grandparents were good healthy sensible people and they died early 80's.

When I bought this house, there was an old couple that lived across the street, you know the kind, been married for 60+ years. Well she was very sick and had been for years, but was still full of life. She would call me almost every evening to go over and have a beer with her because he couldn't drink and she didn't drink alone. We had become very good friends. Well as all things go, she passed away a couple of years after we moved in and left her husband. He went down hill fast and I was the last person to see him alive. We were talking and he looked very bad, he told me he had just finished settling his wife's estate that day. He died that night. It isn't just in the movies. I do miss those people, they were a big part of my life.

93, but that's pessimistic, imo. Family members regularly reach 100 in our family, and I take much better care of myself than them; I don't think I've ever seen someone from my parent's or grandparent's generation in our family exercise.
