Kitty would be 106 today.
Somehow, I doubt that.

She was born in 1910.

And would have reached said age on April 17 if she was indeed still with us.

...as such, if not dead, at the time of the writing she would still be 106.

I believe it's the "if not dead" part that Chad was alluding to, seeing as to make it to 106 you first have to make it to 105, and 104 before that, and all three seem awfully unlikely.

If that's indeed what he intended then I withdraw the statement.

Was it?

There ya go.  8) It's the same thing as "George Washington would've been 283 today." Well, no...

From a quiz on Late Night with David Letterman many, many years ago:

Based on what you know about him in history books, what do you
think Abraham Lincoln would be doing if he were alive today?

  • Writing his memoirs of the Civil War.
  • Advising the President.
  • Desperately clawing at the inside of his coffin.
