The 111-year-old Man

Civic officials in Tokyo set out one day last week to bestow honors upon Japan's oldest living man, Sogen Kato, believed to be 111 years old.

And so he would be, if he hadn't gone to the Great Sushi Bar in the Sky in 1978.

He was found in his room in the family home, where, it was said, he liked to be quiet and undisturbed.

Reports that someone could have been an ex-person for thirty-two years without it being noticed has alerted authorities in Canada. They are now checking on various Senators and back-bench MPs who, although still drawing salaries, have not been heard from for some time.
