Lines: 21 blank Don't put too much credence in what these two are promoting. They were both on PBS recently and were both ready for the funny farm as far as I could see. They both look a good deal older than they did 10 years ago when they were the darlings of the talk show circuit. One look at their kitchen was enough to make me barf. The place was better stocked (though not neatly) than the local Health Food Emporium. There were bottles of pills everywhere. The scene showed them making breakfast which consisted of nearly filling a blender with all sorts of pills and liquids, turning it on, then drinking the resulting mush. The next item of business was to retire to poolside to rest. Honest. They spend their time around the pool drinking vitamin cocktails all day. I suppose if I didn't have to travel 60 miles a day on freeways, had an independent source of income, didn't have to work, and could sit around the pool all day, I could claim I was going to live to be 500 too.:-) T.
