Well I would probably look good for my age too if I got to spend the bulk of my adult life relaxing behind bars, getting three square meals a day, plenty of exercise, plenty of leisure time to read or watch TV and a solid 8+ hours of sleep every night.
Instead, I have spent the bulk of my adult life so far in the rat race in order to pay for my house and support my family. Getting up a 5am, working at least 10 hours a day and another 2-4 hours a day commuting. A good part of my weekends are consumed with chores around the house, yard work, etc. When I do get to take the occasional "vacation", it's rush here and rush there, keep the kids from fighting in the backseat, etc.
OK, so my life's not really as crappy as it sounds above but everything I've said is true and yes, it does age me a little faster then if I got to hang out in a prison yard all day without a worry or care in the world, knowing that all my basic needs would be taken care of for the rest of my life.
But I find this rather stunning...Some of my neighbors are in the early 70s, and look nearly 20 years older than Charlie.
To be honest, Vincent Bugliosi looks nearly dead in comparison to Manson.
Yes, life if better on the outside, however, it's becoming inordinately clear, the stresses of living in today's America, are through the roof and heading straight up.
Both born the same year.

Forgot about that and those auto trips from hell.
We had some great vacations though.
