How Do You Age?

"It's about trying to mentally keep yourself in a place where your're never resting on our laurels.  That's the fountain of youth.  It has nothing to do with the wrinkles on your face, how fat you get or if you get gray hair.  It's your zest for life." 

Billy Joe Armstrong, Green Day.  Quote in Time Magazine Interview.

I have nothing to add.

  2. We love Billy Joe around here. Partly because Boris is from the same neighborhood in which Billy Joe grew up. Boris thinks that makes him punk as well.

    Yes, I think "zest for life" is key. Good genes help, too.
    Best,
