These are people who died, died....

Maybe I should look at turning 40 a different way. We can say that I've lived:

• 25 years longer than Anne Frank
• 22 years longer than King Tut
• 21 years longer than Joan of Arc
• 20 years longer than Billy The Kid
• 18 years longer than Buddy Holly & Pocahontas.
• 17 years longer than River Phoenix
• 16 years longer than James Dean, Notorious B.I.G., and Lee Harvey Oswald.
• 15 years longer than Tupac Shakur.
• 14 years longer than Otis Redding, gay pornstar Joey Stephano and Sharon Tate.
• 13 years longer than John Wilkes Booth, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, and the Elephant Man.
• 12 years longer than Caligula.
• 10 years longer than Patsy Cline and Andy Gibb.
• 9 years longer than Rudolph Valentino.
• 8 years longer than Alexander The Great, Karen Carpenter, and Bruce Lee.
• 7 years longer than John Belushi, Eva Braun, Chris Farley, and Eva Peron.
• 6 years longer than Jesse James.
• 5 years longer than Andy Kaufman, Jonathan Larson, and Mozart.
• 4 years longer than George Armstrong Custer, Bob Marley, Marilyn Monrow and Princess Diana.
• 3 years longer than Marie Antoinette and Van Gogh.
• 2 years longer than John F. Kennedy, JR.
• 1 year longer than Amelia Earhart, Che Guevara, Stonewall Jackson, Martin Luthor King JR, Anna Nicole Smith, and Malcolm X.
  

So, I'm not doing too bad. Unfortunately, all these people gained thier fame well before they died, and thusly, when they were much younger than me. *SIGH* Guess I'm destined for obscurity. And old age.
