Reply #54: A guy I know was in on the creation of the Marvel characters [View All]

[DFW]

He's in his eighties now, and he still gets bit parts in movies with
characters he either created or helped create (Spider-Man, Fantastic
Four, etc etc). I'll have to ask him if he played a part in this one,
too. I'll go see it when I'm back in the USA for sure.

Come to think of it, four of the most interesting people I know are in
their mid-eighties. Two are in entertainment, one is a journalist, and
one is a sex therapist. None of them are thinking about retirement. I
hope that if I get to be that old (genes say no way), that I have as much
energy as they do, as well as all my marbles! Sen. Byrd of WV is another
guy I admire for his tenacity. How do these people do it?
