A couple weeks ago I was on a call where the calling party was an elderly female.  She later told me 93 years old, but you would have never guessed she was that old.  She neither acted like she was that old nor did she look it. 

Now I had never met this woman before.  But as I talked with her first about the reason she called, and later when we were just shootin' the breeze, she reminded me of someone, but I just couldn't put my finger on it.  But as she and I talked it finally came to me.  The smile was the same and the eyes carried the same look.  This was Opera Girl, OG at 93.

Now those of you that haven't been blessed with meeting OG, you have to know she has a very imposing presence.  Along with that presence is the Cage Fighting physique, that would have Randy Couture cowering in the corner.  This lady had the same physique and presence.

So OG, I have seen the future and you look pretty good at 93.  ;)

Ha ha.  That's hilarious. 

Ha ha.  That's hilarious.  When I saw your blog title I was a little worried...it could have gone downhill fast!  =)

You reminded me of this website.  It's fun to play with!

I have met OG

At least three times. She has a wisdom within that already exceeds 93.

OG deserves credit for introducing OlyBloggers to Charlie the Unicorn.

This short animation has changed my life. Thanks OG.
