    The 100 Club

    I have been expecting one of those three fakers to drop dead for quite some time. Fauja Singh is 94, has retired over ten years ago and has looked increasingly thin in the last few years. It also seems his biographer did not expect him to reach his "110th" birthday. Saalumarada is also 94 and has survived a large number of illnesses, being on her deathbed about seven years ago and recently breaking her hip. Wheelchair bound and cranky for years. Pappammal should be about 92. At her Padma Shri ceremony she was on a wheelchair and looked extremely frail. Age is ctaching up with them even if they are faking it.
