Overheard on an NPR show sign-off earlier today, paraphrased: Whatever else in your news today, know this—The earth is approximately 4.5 Billion y.o. And if you’re listening to this, count your blessings that you spent part of that time on the planet with David Bowie.

Very touching.

Agreed! Blessings counted. Check! He's not all that much older than me. Thanks for the wake up call!!
