Ken Fink was telling Audrey stories at the Lanier Symposium a few weeks
ago. He said she has bars mounted above all the doors in her house, and
has finally -- at 80 -- stopped doing a couple of pull-ups each time she
goes from room to room.

Me, I started WW boating at 40, SKing at 45. I'm now 50 and starting to
get good at it. Ask me again in about 25 years.
