The oldest person in the world died today. Damn. The piece opens by saying she liked her bacon crispy. Ms. Baines was 115. When I was born, she was in her late 80s. I can't even handle the idea that I'm moving ever closer to 30.
She was a Georgia native. Born in the 19th century, when Grover Cleveland was president. Trivia Question (first person to hit me up with the correct answer wins a prize): what makes Grover Cleveland unique among American presidents? And for extra credit, which term was he in when Baines was born?
My condolences go out to her family, if she didn't out live them all...
