Dead At Your Age

Among the myriad feeds I subscribe to, Dead.AtYourAge.com is the most morbidly fun one. You get to subscribe to updates about what famous or historically significant people died at your age, with regular updates. For instance, at one point I was told that at my exact age Heath Leger died. Since he hadn't been dead that long, one can infer that we were about the same age.

Besides feeling good about who you've outlived, you also get updates about who you've lived half as long as, which for some might be inspiration enough to continue the day-to-day dredge. Einstein made it to 76. Gotta get to 76, then I can go back to smoking and eating bacon-wrapped steak for breakfast. Gotta be better at Einstein than something, even if it's "living at 77 years old!"
