Your grandfather is very impressive. Does he get around well?

I told Bush; don't play chess with the freakin' Russians.

Like a billy-goat!

Not really like a billy-goat, but yes, he can get around pretty good esp. with the help of a cane for longer distances.

He still has his license and a better driving record then either of his grandsons!

He still cooks all his own meals and does all the housework except deep-cleaning (once every other week a cleaning person comes).

Still reads the Times everyday and 4 or 5 weekly magazines (New Yorker, Harpers, etc.).

I always say: "If I'm a tenth the man he is at his age, I'll be very happy".

Thanks for noticing his strength of character...
