Everybody will at 75.

You're on borrowed time then

75 is not borrowed time my friend, it's not even average

Upper 80's is borrowed time IMO

Siegfried and Roy....one of the greatest acts ever in Las Vegas....

Saw them in the early 90's, one of my first trips to Vegas. They were at the brand new Mirage. The other new hotel at the time was Excalibur

We stayed at the Dunes.

R.I.P. my friend,Roy Horn was one hell of a person,kind,considerate,would do anything for you if he could.He has suffered for many years and still kept fighting.The rehab in Colorado really helped him a lot so he was able to return to Las Vegas.What he wanted most was to be with his cats,he loved those cats just like we love our dogs and our smaller cats,..lol.Most think that his tiger Mantecore attacked him, but Roy had a unsudden stroke on stage and the cat Mantecore reacted and pulled him by the neck to where he felt he was safe.Cats have always pulled their kittens and so forth by the neck as to keep them safe,and Montecore felt that Roy was in danger,and he was, so he took him to saftey.Montecore was his personal tiger and loved him very much just like we love our smaller pets.To end this,the first thing Roy said after it happened was,don't put the cat down,don't put the cat down,he saved my life,also their mansion was something to see,it was fabulous and amazing to be a part of it,i forget how many maids they had but it was a lot and they were respected by the duo,....ok,anyway he can R.I.P. now and not suffer anymore

It's close enough

Life expectancy for an American man is like 76-78
At 75, the end is in sight

75 is about fine for me, I don't want to be 90
