We are alive to witness a historic juncture in America's history today, a moment that we should mark:
J.C. just surpassed H.W. today in longevity, becoming the "oldest living former president in United States history" - 94 years and 172 days. https://www.ajc.com/news/jimmy-carter-gets-new-title-oldest-living-former-president/68TFzP9SMDjrVuqcUt3PkK/

I have a strong feeling he'll be around for a while. He seems healthy, lucid, and active for his age.

They will hit 75 years of marriage on July 7th of this year. Simply remarkable.

Seeing a discussion item pop up here makes the heart sink for a second.
Yes, I do realize that now with me adding this comment, he will have 2 new comments shown on the front page making possibly worse for someone else.

How can this picture be real?
Just saying "wide angle lens", doesn't seem adequate to explain such a weirdly skewed-looking image.
Old people shrink.

The best doctors will tell you that after 40 years of age that the average human loses about half an inch of height every decade. This is probably accelerated in appearance in some cases with osteoporosis (which tends to be more prevalent in women).
So if Roselynn Carter was 5 foot 5 inches in her prime. 5 decades X 1/2 inch = 2.5 inches shorter. She's probably now about 5 foot 2 1/2 inches or shorter now. Add in likely stooped posture (even sitting) from a compressed backbone...and this makes sense.
Joe Biden is just under 6 feet tall now and frankly in very good shape for his age. So yeh he looks likes a giant next to her.
As a 6 foot 6 tall guy...I look like a giant in photos next to 6 feet tall people (worse with shorter). I appreciate this photo.

Look at the curvature at the bases of the chairs, as well as Jimmy Carter's ankles. I think there is some kind of distortion.

She's already dead, breaux.
Violence seems redundant at this stage.
