Fitness guru Jack LaLanne, who died yesterday at the age of 96, seemed like such a likable fellow. The way he talked about health and fitness on TV reminds me the way that some farmers and organic wine producers in France talk about their products. I wonder: if Jack LaLanne’s parent had never emigrated from Oloron Sainte Marie in the Atlantic Pyrenees region of southwest France he might have become famous for producing organic goat cheese… and maybe lived longer.
