Jack Kerouac by 268 days.

interesting.

This doesn't really make sense to me.

To my mind, "outlived" means "each born within a few years of each other, and one is dead."

Not, "I'm 41 and this person died thirty years ago at 40, so I 'outlived' them."

I "outlived" John Lennon when I was 14, not when I turned 40.

I have outlived Ingrid Bergman 29 days ago.

Give me time and I will have outlived:

Ava Garner in 3 days,

Dexter Gordon in 28 days

Spencer Tracy in 36 days

And I have outlived Sam Giancana by four days dirol.gif

[Peter Johnson]

Andy Kaufmann by 35 days. Didn't realize he died so young!

Silly concept, but interesting information. I'm surprised that Princess Di was only 36 when she died. I thought she was over 40.

I hope it's not a bad sign that the next 4 in my list have been murdered (Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Malcolm X, John Lennon)

Drove his truck into a concrete barrier earlier this year. Cocaine was in his system.

Have you seen him lately? He doesn't look dead? He has a real large forehead.

Seriously, this is another Steve Howe who played baseball.

You've outlived Gilda Radner and Peter Tosh by 4 days.

If you make it 6 more days, you will outlive Richard Manuel.

You're in my sights Manuel

On the one hand, John Candy was born the same week I was.

On the other hand... I have outlived Grover Washington, Jr., by 16 days and Johnny Ramone by 44 days. In 30 days I will have outlived Dag Hammarskjold.

[DukeCity]

I've got Lyle Alzado beat by ten days!

If I can hold on another 104 days I will have passed John Candy, Natalie Wood and Dan Blocker!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

The problem w/ these age comparasion sites is that you inevitably wind up comparing your life to the people mentioned that you have already "outlived". A good way to give yourself a midlife crisis

When my father turned 50 I gave him a birthday card that went something like....

Front: "You're 50! Say, did you know that by the time Mozart turned 50 he had written 20 operas, 41 symphonies, and was considered to be the greatest musician that had ever lived?"

Inside: And he had been dead for 15 years.
