    Default Jack LaLanne RIP

    Passed away on Sunday afternoon at 96. I always greatly admired Jack LaLanne and his example is an inspiration to me. Here is the obit in the Times.

    I remember watching his show when I was a small kid and giving my parents plenty to chuckle at when I tried to mimic him. It usually involved an exercise with a chair that inevitably fell over on me!

    RIP. The guy was a true inspiration and lived his dream forever.

    I also use to watch his TV show as a kid.

    What an amazing run he had.
