Martinis were a food group for my father in law, who died peacefully in
his sleep a few weeks short of his 95th birthday. He had a good hearty
breakfast, ate lunch in a restaurant or at one of his clubs. For dinner
he had peanut butter on crackers and a double martini, and sometimes a
second martini, then coffee and a cigar. He was in good physical and
mental condition right up the the end.

Nice age and nice way to go. Based on that story, I'm going to have gin
with dinner tonight. I'd probably have the gin even without the story but
that will make it go down smoother yet.
