96 is a good age.



Although the Stan Freburg version sticks in my mind too.

I hear you! :D I once had the honour of slow dancing with a boyfriend's buddy, who had similar skin tone to Mr Belafonte - I can confirm, the skin on his arms was the softest I have ever encountered. Yes, even softer than a baby's! 8-)
