    According to Wikipedia, it's generally accepted that it was her.

    Man, living to your 90s. Blows my mind.

    That photo is fantastic.

    But if Watchmen (the movie) taught me anything, it's that she dug chicks too.

    RIP Edith Shain

    my grandfather was 16 days from 101 when he died.

    As long as I don't get shot or a disease or blown up or starve or knifed things are looking pretty good in the living forever department!

    I just kind of assumed she had already passed, although it's nice to know she had a good long life.

    My brain read it as "Ian McShane passes" for a second there and I was devastated.

    Like, that wasn't the first random lady that he'd kissed

    I imagine if I had just taken part in beating the nazi's I too would have gone "Woo! Let's all make-out! Come on everybody this will be great!"

    And then I would kiss so many ladies on the face.

    When the British men came back from the war they found that a fair few of their wives/girlfriends had ran off with the studly Americans who came bearing gifts of chocolate and stockings.
