Heck, BB was around for Noah's voyage...although I'm not sure of the date and/or year.
But, I am sure he was born antediluvian...of or belonging to the time before the Biblical Flood.
Needless to say, BB has been through a lot.

I wouldn't go that far, Bahmer, but I will give him a tip of the hat for his indefatigability/perseverance.

He knows of things that happened before I was even a twinkle in my fathers eye. I was born in 1943 so I am 75 but not even close to the age of badbobby.

My recognizer works like a Swiss watch and a Timex.
I shoulda been a ref, two against one, ppffftt!
Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.
A TKO is as good as a knockout, win-wise.
Reminds me of that skier on World Wide Sports,
the agony of da-feet!

There's at least a chance he was pi**ing in his pants while listening to the broadcast.
