Macomb County real estate agent, talking about seniors: 

You're never too old, you know.  Take Nola Oaks from Hayes Kansas. She just graduated from college at 95 years old! It's only natural she majored in History. She was probably there for most of it. A big "atta girl" for Nola.

Who is the oldest league bowler in the United States? That would be Bill Hayword at 106 years old.  His bowling average is 93, but hey, that isn't bad for a guy who is legally blind. Keep on truckin' Bill!

More stories from the book: "Happy in Horse Poop: The Entremanureal Journey" bBIngo Resting After a Fun Day with His Friendsy Jeannie Sample    

My mother always told me not to wander far. I should have listened to her, that is for sure. My name is Bingo and I’m a dog.  My mother warned me everyday because of the horrible accident my Dad had when I was young.  We beagles are a fun loving group, and Dad was no exception.  He loved to run free and wild, root in the ground, dig in bushes and hunt rabbits.  One day, he sniffed out a good rabbit trail and off he went.  All I could see was the white tip of his tail bouncing above the foliage in a soybean field.  Mom howled for him for hours, but he never came home.  About three days later, our master brought Dad home in a box and he was dirty and matted.  He wasn’t wagging his tail anymore.  One of those big metal machines that roll down the street had hit him. 

It must have been born in my blood because I love to hunt rabbits too.  Our master worked the fields and had big metal machines that road through the fields each day.  I think he is called a farmer.  He usually put us in our pen while he worked.  I would rest all day and wander around our area, waiting for something exciting to happen. As I sat there with my Mom, one late spring day, I saw a bunny hop by and I was thrilled to see him.  I barked as tough as I could and hit the gate with excitement.
