COT: COCOON is a movie about a group of old men, led by Wilford Brimley’s character. They seemingly find a fountain of youth and hijinks follow. When the movie was released, Wilford Brimley was 50 years old, 8 months, and a few days, leading to a short-lived internet meme of crossing the Wilford Brimley Line at that exact age. I am thankful F3 helped me get in shape and keep me feeling young. Today, I crossed the Wilford Brimley line and am thankful for my health.
