I like your paragraph because I didn't know about Walter Breuning. Good job on finding a unique topic and a nice public interest story! What year was Breuning born? I realize I could subtract 113 from 2009, but I don't feel like calculating.
ReplyDeleteThat's great learning about the oldest man living in Minnesota. You did a good summary and a great job at adding important numbers. I wonder what his secret is?

ReplyDeleteThat is so old, wow! I think it's awesome that he is from Minnesota. Thanks for finding this!
ReplyDeleteGood summary, that's nuts that he is 113, my great-grandma lived until she was 102! Think of all the knowledge he has.
ReplyDeleteWow, Sam, this was a good story to tell. Did Breuning share any secrets for his super long life? I wonder how his health is?
