...imagine all the seas awash with cruise ships taking us 120-year-olds to vacation hideaways. And the endless golf courses. Our old wives will have to put up with us geezer husbands chasing them around the bedroom with renewed libido. Holy cow! And I thought paradise was only a dream. I hope that the mad scientists will quit dragging their feet. I don't have time to wait. HARRY MASS Tarzana, California...

In TV interviews, he keeps saying, "I have new ideas, and Senator Dole has, er, ah, Washington ideas." He constantly asks if Dole is the person to lead the country "into the next century." If Thurmond jumped into the Republican presidential race, which now doesn't seem all that farfetched, Alexander could say Strom's not the man to lead the country into his next century...
