My 100 Year Old Cousin is Now In the Guinness Book of World Records
I just found out that a third-cousin of mine, 100 year old Philip Rabinowitz, is now the world's fastest centenarian:
Philip Rabinowitz from Cape Town ran 100m at the city's Green Point stadium in 30.86 seconds, beating the existing record by more than five seconds....."Every time I go, I break my own record. I get younger and younger," he said as his pulse was checked by his coach.
His secret:
Besides eating apples, he recommends moderation, work and walking as the key to a long life...Work, Mr Rabinowitz explained, was another secret to longevity and he goes to his daughter's dog food factory five days a week to do the accounts.
Can you see the family resemblance?
I hope I'm as healthy when I'm his age! I didn't even know about this guy till this week, when my mom told me.

Oh, yeah, the ol' Neuberg family charm is plain upon his face!
Picture Brad at 100+ talking Peer to Space on the Omninet. Brad Neuberg will never die; he will become a ghost in the machine!
