I'm still shocked that Henry Kissinger is still alive. At this point, it should be a hn story

I was at a screening of a documentary in Rockefeller center about the liberation of Ahlem. Henry Kissinger was giving remarks afterward. Stopped speaking mid-sentence, and stared directly at me, locking eyes, in the front row for at least 10 seconds before resuming. Everyone around me was puzzled. To this day we don't know why, and my brother likes to tell people at parties that Henry Kissinger hates me.

I would never sleep through the night again. That is terrifying.

Why are people shocked? Some people live well into their 90s.

Kissinger is 99. Jimmy Carter is 98. Charlie Munger is 98. Warren Buffett is 92. Mel Brooks is 96. Roger Penrose is 91. Willie Nelson is 90. Ed Thorp is 90.

Kissinger just published a book:
