#3  The world's oldest man never dies. He just gets younger from time to time.

#1  Mr Allingham once attributed his grand age to 'cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women'.

Not on the slate under Obamacare, cause you know the utes who'll get taxed for Obamacare would take it as an alternative private health insurance policy instead. Allingham Mutual Ltd, now there's an idea.
