I couldn't imagine an undertaking like that at my youthful age of 44. Wow my hats off!

They didn't make very many of them even back then!!! I've always considered myself a tough old boy, and I've pulled my last 4 teeth, and I couldn't hold a candle to that Man. There's tough and then there's real tough. That gentleman is an absolute exception to the rules!!!!
