New clues this morning about the deliberate crash of Germanwings Flight 9525. German investigators have evidence Andreas Lubitz hid an illness from the airline. The copilot had a history of depression. In another stunning turn a doctor actually had given lubitz a sick note excusing him from work tuesday. Instead he flew that plane into a mountain killing 150 people. Alan pizzi is in the coallen pizzey is with us. Reporter good morning. According to the dusseldorf prosecutor prosecutors office, torn up sick notes were found indicating he not fit to work. He concealed them from his employers as far as is known and its not known whether the notes indicate the a physical or mental condition only it represented right down to the date he took the fatal flight. Significantly, prosecutors did not find a suicide note nor any indication he had religious or political motivation for what he did. Attention is being focused on reports at one period during his training lubitz was treated for severe depression but as far as his employers knew nothing was wrong to affect his work or progress in Flight Training according to ceo karsten spore. He had not only fulfilled all medical tests also all Flight Trainings he said. 100 air worthy without any restrictions. To all who knew him, he was an active young man liked to jog, spent time on facebook and other social media including chat rooms. His passion for flying began at this flight club. I only got to know Andreas Lubitz as a nice friendly and open human being, he says. Lubitz began his airline Flight Training in 2008. He spend five months at lufthansas Flight Training sender in arizona in 2010 and certified to fly in the u. S. Lubitz reportedly took a sixmonth break from Flight Training in 2009 because, according to several reports here quoting former classmates, he felt burned out. Vlad . Thanks. Frances Prime Minister this morning called on germanwings to reveal everything it knows about lubitz. French recovery crews bizzen 0 the mountainside where the airbus 320 crashed. This flight was traveling from barcelona spain to dusseldorf germany when it went down. Near the crash site in seynelesalpes, our correspondent. Reporter good morning. Windy but brilliant sunshine definitely will help the recovery effort. Its still in initial stages. It will take weeks to complete. The search team is once again on the mountainside some in climbing gear, because the slope is so steep. The red flags mark human remains. But the team is collecting everything, crucial evidence not only for the airlines accident investigation, but for the criminal inquiry, which at moment a still treated as manslaughter manslaughter. The second black box, which would have recorded all fly commands from the cockpit still hasnt been found. The familieses many victims gathered for a small ceremony. The flag of each country on display. Among the victims, three americans a mother and daughter yvonne and emily selke on vacation together and robert oliver, a u. S. Citizen and a father who was living and working in spain. In barcelona this morning, olivers own father said he preferred to think of a life lived, not lost. Instead of focusing our minds and hearts on that last those last nine or ten minutes, we prefer to think about those 37 years that weve been together. Reporter still shocked and grieving, all of the families are now struggling to accept that the catastrophe that killed their loved ones is looking like an act of mass murder. Based on this strong circle evidence that the copilot really did crash the plane deliberately when the pilot had left the cabin, some European Airlines have already changed their procedure to mirror what happens in the states and that is when a pilot or a copilot leaves the cockpit for any reason another crew member goes inside so theres never only one person in there at any given time. Norah . Significant change already. Thank you, Elizabeth Palmer in the french alps. Ken maxwell, former Vice President of copt security for Jetblue Airlines and a former fbi agent who investigated twa flight 800 and egypt air flight 990. Its believed that that egyptian jet was deliberately brought down by the copilot. Ken, good morning. Good morning, norah. A lot to talk about here. First, officials in germany say theyve made a significant discovery in the home of this copilot. What are authorities looking for now . Well theyre looking for everything. Theyre peeling back that onion, per perverbally perverbally, to understand his entire life, his medical records, physical Health Mental stability, any history of medication they might find in the house. Documentary evidence. Digital evidence. You name it theyre looking for every possible clue that would unravel this mystery. It seems so ironic ken, to me, that the system set up in place after 9 11 to keep the bad guy out of the cockpit, has now turned out very tragically and the bad guy was in fact in the cockpit. You still think this is a good system. Do you not . Yes, i do. Keep in mind the modus operandi of 9 11 and the needs to protect that cockpit at all costs. Ironically, there is some irony here but the procedure that is used in the United States, which is very has been very useful and successful in having that second person up front when a pilot or copilot leaves not only with respect to security an extra measure, but with respect to safety should that pilot or copilot become incapacitated, stroke, heart attack whatever the case may be have a human being up there to sound the alarm. Mitigating. 100 fool 3proof, no but a mitigating effort. And the pilot also crashed into the sea, what are similarities with that flight and this one . Certainly, at the fbi conducted a parallel investigation with ntsb on that case the cockpit voice recorder was key in determining the probable cause of that tragedy. Very similar. Do you worry about copycats here . Not necessarily. Its important for the flying public to understand the overwhelming majority of pilots are professional people who do their job well every day to make people safe. Not necessarily a copycat. I think, its being done obviously, not only airlines but governmental authorities, both u. S. And foreign, have to take another look at the procedures regarding Mental Health and updating annual physicals. What additional measures can be taken as we learn everything from these tragedies. We do take away a lot of important facts that we can have effective change and thats one of the issues that certainly policies regarding the physical requirements and the health requirements. Ken maxwell, thank you. Well take a closer look at the Screening Program for pilots in the United States. If it protects the flying public. Thats ahead on cbs this morning. Now to charlies new interview with syrian president Bashar Al Assad for sundays 60 minutes. Assad granted rare access a year and a half after their last conversation as syria enters the fifth year of its civil war. Theyre meeting thursday in damascus, it came amid reports of a new chlorine gas attack in a town where six people may have been killed from the poison earlier this month. But assad pushed back against claims that his regime is using chlorine gas. The interview was shot by syrian tv at request of assads people citing security reasons, however nothing was off limits in this interview when it came to charlies questions. 90 of the civilian casualties, 90 , come from the syrian army. How did you get that result . That was a report that was issued in the last six months. Okay. As i said earlier, the war is not about its not traditional war. Its not about captures land and gaining land. Its about winning the hearts and minds of the civilians. We cannot win the hearts and minds of the syrians while killing syrians. We cannot sustain four years in that position as a government and me as president while the rest of the world, most of the world, the great pow regional powers are against me and my people are against me. Thats impossible. I mean this logic has no leg to stand on. So this is not realistic and this is against our interests of government, to kill the people. What do we get . Whats the benefit of killing the people . The argument is that you weapons of war have been used that most people look down on with great one is chlorine gas. They believe it has been used here. They say there is evidence of that and they would like to have the trite inspect to see where its coming from. As you know barrel bombs have been used and they come from helicopters, and the only people who have helicopters is the syrian army. So those two acts of war which is, society looks down on as let me fully answer this. Barbaric acts. Part of the propaganda, again. It is not military gas t. Can be weaponized. No. Its not very effective. Not used as military gas. Thats based on evidence. Traditional arms is more important than chlorine. If it was very effective, the the terrorists would have used it on a larger scale. Because its not effective, its not used very much. Why not let somebody come in and inspect to see if its been used or not . We happy for that . Of course. The delegation in part delegation come investigation. Logically, realistically it cannot be used in military. Part of propaganda. You know in the media, when it bleeds it bleeds and they look for something, chlorine gas. Assad also told charlie he is open to a dialogue with the u. S. But isnt hearing anything from washington. Secretary of state john kerry raised the possibility of talks during his interview with Margaret Brennan or face the nation. Watch 60 minutes for much more of charlies newsmaking interview with president assad.

This College Student learned of the news watching at his school. He and his three roommates lived above that same restaurant. All of our belongings were in there. Reporter private contractors were doing gas and plumbing work in one of the destroyed buildings. Con said inspected inspectors arrived for a separate reason entirely. Found the work unacceptable. Gave instructions what changes were needed and that was an hour or more before the explosion. Reporter now early indications suggest that gas is to blame for this explosion. Now, some people in this neighborhood said that they did smell gas before it actually happened. Although the Mayors Office mayor bill de blasio, says there were no complaints to the city about that. However, he did make a point to tell people in this area it is imperative they call 911 or contact con edison if they smell any gas. Thank you, jericka.

And Andreas Lubitz has evidence that the copilot was hiding an illness from the airline. Lubitz had a history of depression and intentionally crashed the plane into a french mountainside tuesday killing 150 people. The revelation is now forcing regulators to look more closely at to dohow to make sure pilots are fit to fly. This story, more from washington. Reporter after revealing he believes the copilot deliberately crashed the plane, some European Airlines made it mandatory for two people to be in the cockpit at all times something the u. S. Started doing after the 9 11 terror attacks. On airlines in the United States, the cockpit door is reinforced with bulletproof material and a series of locks keep the pilot sealed off from the cabin and crew. When a pilot exits the cockpit, a Flight Attendant or relief pilot must go in and lock the door so that there are two people in the cockpit at all times.

Reporter International Aviation officials have expressed concerns about whether medical exams go far enough for younger pilots. In a 2012 document, the International Civil Aviation Organization said that an increased emphasis on Mental Health may be warranted. Vlad . Jeff, thanks. This morning a prostitution scandal in the Drug Enforcement administration is prompting you kas to clean house. Attending sex parties funded by drug cartels between 2005 and 2008. Investigators only found out years later. Outside the Justice Department in washington we have details of the new Inspector General report. Reporter good morning. The report looks into numerous allegations of Sexual Harassment and misconduct at the four Law Enforcement agencies that belong to the department of justice, but the allegation thats getting all the attention is that dea agents had sex parties with colombian prostitutes over a period of years. The report says dea agents attending sex parties in colombia should have known the prostitutes in attendance were paid with cartel funds. The same drug cartels the officers were supposed to be fighting. To make matters worse, most of the sex parties occurred in governmentleased quarters will agents laptops and blackberry devices were present. Potentially exposing them to extortion, blackmail or coercion. This demonstrates that the dea and others are engaging in activities that puts our National Security at risk. Reporter the report even says that a foreign officer allegedly provided protection for the dea agents weapons during the parties. Ten agents were investigated and seven admitted to dea investigators that they participated in the sex parts. Their punishment was nothing more than suspensions ranging from just two to ten days. House Oversight Committee chairman Jason Chaffetz says thats not enough. These people should are fired immediately. They need to be held accountable, not just given a threeday weekend pass. Reporter prostitution is legal in colombia in areas known at tolerance zones and this is not the first time u. S. Law enforcement agencies have been rocked by prostitution scandal theres. Three years ago it was the secret service. House judiciary chairman says these bad of 0s can make whole agencies let effective. There are lots of good hard working, dedicated people who are agents in all of these different federal Law Enforcement agencies but theyre all given a black eye when people are not acting responsibly. Reporter in a written statement, the Justice Department said it already has a zero tolerance policy on Sexual Harassmented and misconduct and that it is now working with dea and the other Law Enforcement agencies to make sure it is enforced.

A group of strangers help make medical history at a San Francisco hospital. They formed a socalled transplant chain at a California Pacific Medical Center is the place its called. 12 patients in a sixway kidney swap. Thats the largest ever on a the west coast. And first on cbs this morning carter evans shows us how they met for the very first time to show the ultimate example of paying it foofrmtd. Reporter strangers just days ago, this group is more like family as six transplant recipients met the people who saved their lives. Youre my the trance plant was started by zooly besaturday. That man standing behind you has a piece of you. I know. His daughter is going to get to see him. Brassard lost her husband and son to cancer. That was that feeling of loss that compelled her to give. But the difference between you and everyone else in this chain is you didnt have a loved one who was getting a kidney. But they did. I just wanted them to have th tant and so on. The result was 12 surgeries and six new kidneys. Before meeting, the only thing the donors had in common was that they all wanted desperately to save a loved one but couldnt. As years goes on it just puts a toll on the family. As Norma Rodriguez struggled with kidney disease, her mind. There was an option. A kidney swap between donors who werent a match for their loved ones but for somebody else. Somebody turned the lights back on on. He got his new kidney from former marine for liz torrez. The only thing ailing this tough marine was her sick mother miriam. She also got a kidney but was reluctant to see her daughter undergo invasive surgery. You didnt want her to take that risk. No. But she called me and said im will dog that for your life mom. How do you say thank you for that . How do you thank her . You dont. Ive been telling people, you know, ive received a gift i can never repay, right, and im grateful. Reporter more than 100,000 people in the u. S. Are waiting for new kidneys. 12 people die every day hoping for a transplant. The complexity of the organization for the sixway swap was immense. Reporter the kidney swap was fast tracked coordinated in three weeks with urgency to get it done before anyone or anything broke the chaen. What really worries us is the unexpected, if one of the 12 patients developed a cold, you know, the night before that could have thrown the whole thing off. Something that little . Yeah. Reporter finding a donor match is complex which is why david jacobs designed this computer program. His inspiration came when he received a kidney transplant years ago at the very same hospital. Instead of dying i lived and was able to build the software to help other people. We all have something to give and we make a choice as to what that may be but everything matters. The choice zooly brassard made saved oswaldo padillas life. Do you feel a connection to her . Shes part of my family now. Hell get to see his daughter grow up thanks to the kindness of strangers.

Prosecutors said this morning that Andreas Lubitz head the extent of his illness from airline bosses. Searches found evidence that lubitz was undergoing regular medical treatment. Allan pizzey is in the pilots hometown of montabaur. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Well investigators who searched the homes that were used by Andreas Lubitz said they found evidence that he concealed a medical condition from his employers. They found torn up medical notes indicateing he was having some kind of treatment, though they endo the say for what. One of those notes apparently had a date that coincided with the date of the fatal flight. Now, what illness he was hiding we dont know. His employers, germanwings said as far as they were concerned he was certified 100 fit to fly both medically and trainingwise. It is known, however, that sometime in 2009 he took a sixmonth break from training and some friends who were quoted by local media here said that he was suffering at that point from depression. But he otherwise appeared to be a normal young man, enjoyed flying. He learned to do it at a gliding school. He was often seen here in the town where his parents lived jogging, had a lot of friends. He was a quiet young man. There was no indication on the surface that this was a troubled young man. Prosecutors did find medical evidence in his home to suggest he was suffering from some kind of illness, whether mental or physical is not known at this point. But it does shed a new light on the problems. They also said however, it should be noted there was no evidence of any religious or political motivation but it does appear that he had some kind of medical or mental problem. Vlad . Thank you.

It may have been destroyed by the crash. If it is found and the material that it recorded that is the planes operations are recoverable, it could corroborate whats now strongly suspected, that the copilot did steer the plane into the ground. Meanwhile, some is of the families are here in the valley were gathered for a memorial service, a solemn occasion because they are not only coming to grips in their shock and grief with the death of their loved ones but now they have to come to terms with the fact that it does look as if it was a case of mass murder.

In our morning rounds exercising cancer away. You know working out benefits your heart. Well, it could also help fight cancer. A new study says fit middle age men may be less likely to develop lung and colon cancer down the road. If they do develop it, more are likely to survive. Dr. David agus is in los angeles. Good morning. This is great news. How does exercise prevent cancer . Its a very interesting study. They took middleage men, they define middle ages a50 years old and they looked at how they did on a cardiac stress test. You know if you do well on a cardiac stress test theres a dramatically lower rate of Heart Disease later on. They showed that predicted who had a lower risk of cancer also. And the people who did better on the test, if they were diagnosed with prostate colon or lung cancer, their death rate was lower. So Pretty Amazing that a decade and a half before the event, your cardio fitness predicted wht was going to happen with cancer. Why was it only just men, dr. David agus . And no women included . And does it make the same difference for women . Well, this studzy just happened to look at men. One would assume the results are similar in women. That study hasnt been announce or looked at yet. But certainly there shouldnt be a major physiologic difference there. What kind of exercise are we talking about . In this case it was how fit you were. If you were able to run a 12minute mile your risk of cancer was x. Reducing that to 11 1 2 minutes had a reduction in your risk of cancer. Explain to us the biology. How does the exercise prevent cancer . I think of it this way. If i drop a match in a field of grass after it rains, nothing happens. If i drop a match in los angeles it goes up in flames. So you need a receptive environment. What exercise does it changes our environment so cancer doesnt want to happen. Theres an amazing study that also came out in mice today, showing that exercise in mice changes the blood supply in cancer to change the response to therapy. The more exercise a mouse did, the better they responded to therapy for cancer. I would think you talk about inflammation in cancer and certainly exercise can reduce inflammation over time. Can it also help retard cancer . In other words, if you have cancer and regular exercise, can that help . Yes the data showed clearly it can. As a people who exercise with cancer do better overall. So whether its reducing inflammation changing blood supply, there are probably multiple mechanisms. The message is get up off your chair and start moving. And only need 15 minutes a day. Getting your heart rate up is what we need. If we could do that all of us wed all be in better shape. Good news. I like how you said get up after your chair. I know what you meant, dr. David agus.

The murder of family lead to a bizarre twist. A husband and father on the run. Then he started posing as a reporter. Now hollywood is turning this real live drama into a move. 48 hours correspondent Maureen Maher started covering this a decade ago and heres a preview of tomorrow nights report. It started on december 19th 2001. We got a report of a child in the bay. My name is trish miller and im the lead investigator. They discovered a second child and she was waited down with a rock. The children were identified as Zachary Longo and sadie ann longo. This wasnt an accident. This was murder. The investigators in oregon soon found their mother Mary Jane Longo and baby madison at the bottom of the bay. Once we found mary jane and madison, we knew our suspect was going to be chris longo. The whole familys dead and hes nowhere to be found. It was discovered that Christian Longo had caught a plane to cancun mexico. He was spotted and charged in the murder of his wife and three children. But when he was caught he had taken on another identity. My name is michael finkel. I was a writer for the New York Times magazine. I learned that while Christian Longo was in mexico he was pretending to be a writer for the New York Times. In fact, he was pretending to be me. What was the first thought that went through your mind when you hear theres a man whos about to stand trial for murder who was impersonating you. I thought, im going to write him a brief letter. Im really curious about why you chose to become me. It would be the first of many letters, phone calls, and eventually facetoface meetings. The journey into the mind of an accused murderer. It became a book and now a hollywood movie. Thank you for seeing me mr. Longo. Call me chris. Why me . I followed your whole career. I felt like i knew you. I want to tell you my side of this, only you. The psychological thriller focuses on the reporter and the killers game of cat and mouse. You have a choice of so many stories to tell yanld you chose his. Actually hi he picked me. He didnt picked you. A true hollywood story. I looked him in the eye and said, chris, did you do what they accused you of doing. He was as always completely unruffled. Never portrayed a micro minute of panic and said i think you know and give me a little wink. Maureen maher joins us now. She joins us at the table. Youve seen the reallife people. What is the the story is despicable enough. He kills his wife and children. Little children. Various verlgss how he did or didnt do it. But what made it interesting is you have Christian Longo and mike fingle strike up this bizarre relationship you would think as a reporter after a couple of questions or interviews it would be over. But that was only the beginning. It wasnt that longo wasnt befriending finkel but finkel the disgraced reporter was befriending longo. He said my guard was down because i thought i could get him but it was the other way around. Longo uses him as a test run for the testimony during the trial. Theyre still in contact. Once again. Saturday night. You can watch maureens full report, the pretender. Thats tonight on 48 hours right here at 10 00 and you can see our interview with james franco and jonah hill on cbs this morning.

The company exploded in popularity since its launched three years ago. The members are projected to hit 7 million this year. Tracey deinunzio is the founder. You started this with 8,000 . I did, back in 2012. And now its grown to . Today weve raised almost 50 million in Investment Capital from investors like Richard Branson and perkins. We have 90 employees and were growing very fast. It all started because you looked in your closet and saw what . I saw a bunch of things that i rarely wore and it was an overflowing closet but i felt like i had nothing to wear. You found out women only wear 20 of whats in your closet. I actually think thats true. You go from that idea to do what to start this business . Tell us how it works. It works kind of like any other marketplace where you can list any item for sale and then if somebody comes along and buys it, we send you a shipping kit. You can put your item into the kit. You dont have to leave the house to ship. You pay a low 9 commission and only when you make a sale. How do you know what i have. I know what you have you take a photo of it and you write a small description. Its like posting to instagram. When you do that your item is automatically lists for sale. Why not use ebay for instance . Ebay is great but its not necessarily tailored to women and the way women want to buy and sell fashion. We built something every item is guaranteed authentic. You dont have to worry if its a designer good or not. We take care of shipping for our sul sellers. If youre looking into your closet, what are the items that are the most popular in somebodys closet . And can dudes do this . Dudes cannot do this yet. Soon, soon. Were going to be implementing that. I have a lot of stuff in my closet. I know. A lot of men do. Well expand to mens. Bags, shoes and accessories all sell really quickly. Doesnt have to be designer recognizable brands that people know and love. It almost sounds too good to be true. I send you something in my closet, you take the picture put it up. The minute somebody buys it you send me a shipping kit and i send it to them. Yes. I dont have to do any schlepping, nothing. And the day you send out you get paid. If youre selling your clothes on tradesy lets say for the sake of argument its a 100 dress, how much does the seller keep. 91. Tradesy would take the 9 as our commission. When you list it its free. You didnt pay fees to list it which means you can put your closet on there. It doesnt cost you anything and wait and see what sells. When she was trying to get money for this, you rented out your room to air bnb and you were sleeping on the couch. I did. Normally i dont want to look at the owner sleeping on the couch. I would feel guilty. I decided to rent out my bedroom and sleep on my couch so i could afford to stay focused on theearly days of the business how did that work out. Eventually. My first airbnb guest is now my husband. Thats how we met. How did he move from the couch to the bedroom . That is a story not for television. I think your story is a cool story. Youre making a lot of money. Norah and i were talking about this, we never heard of tradesy until today. Were only 2 1 2 years old. Were growing quickly but there are women who havent heard of it. Im sending you some things. Gayle has a lot of clothes. And shoes. Its not just designer stuff. Anything. Thank you so much. You guys are clearly interested. Brian grazer began his amazing run more than 30 years ago. His work clues apollo 13, the da vinci code and a Beautiful Mind. He shows scott simon how his family used his childhood curiosity to earn his place in hollywood. Heres a preview of the conversation. Brian grazer had trouble reading as a boy but his grandmother, sonya, didnt see the ds and fs on his report card. She identified my strength which was to ask questions, to dig inside of subjects, to dig inside of people. She told me that would have a great value in my life. And it did. Grandma sonya encouraged his curious mind. I think we all absolutely have curiosity. It brings about knowledge. Its energizing spiritually empowering. It makes us more interesting as people. For 30 years now, brian grazer has written notes to famous strangers to ask them to have what he calls a curiosity conversation. He talked to scientists politicians, artists and entrepreneurs. Jonas salk Oprah Winfrey, henry kissinger. His new book a curious mind published by cbss simon and shuster is less about the films hes made than conversations he sought. Why did you write this book and not a memoir . I think writing a memoir, it some way suggests you figured out life. And i definitely didnt figure out life. But i thought the process of curiosity was really worth writing about. This weekend on sunday morning, scott simon also shows us how grazers conversations piqued the curiosity of his longtime friend director ron howard. Thats sunday here on cbs. I cant wait. And dancing grannies are the inspiration behind a government sanctioned dance in china but this morning, well show you how these women could be getting a ive got the key scal good day, mlady i am sircanalot, here to save you from another breakfast bore. Wake up those eggs with glorious spam see what spam can do. At spam. Com imagine a flash mob in a public space with dancing old ladies. Then imagine this that that very scene is creating controversy, yep controversy in parts of china. But this morning, the government may be back pedaling from its plan to step up unity within the country. Seth doane is in beijing with the fancy footwork. Cant wait for this. Good morning. Reporter good morning to you, yes it has been quite a week for these amateur dancers who for a while believed that the Chinese Government was going to step in and make them learn new routines. Theyre nicknamed dancing grannies. They wheel portable speakers into parks and plazas after dinner and dance. Its part socializing, part sport. And can be quite a spectacle. But the neighbors had not always so enamored. Noise is such a nuisance but in some cities neighbors have gone on the offensive trying to disperse dancers with attack dogs, counterintuitively blasting messages about noise pollution, even installing metal parking spot locks to deter dancing. A government Sports Official told the china daily it seems that the overenthusiasm of participants has dealt public dancing a harmful blow. With disputes over noise and venues. Earlier this week the Chinese Government announced its rolling out 12 state sanctioned square dance routines. The dances will be nationally unified and scientifically arranged. Heres a peek at little apple, one of the approved songs. State certified trainers will travel the country teaching the new moves. I think its reasonable to introduce a proper standard for square dancing this square dancer said. Should be enjoyed in a Commercial Area to avoid bothering the lives of other people. Many dancers were not so upbeat and saw the Ruling Communist Party as an unwelcome dance partner. The same official who earlier championed the new steps, back pedaled late this week saying the era when people nationwide practice the same dance is over. Yes, the government is now back pedaling and saying these new routines are simply a suggestion. The dancing grannies can vote with their feet and dance any way they like. The first city to be receiving these new dances is the Northern City of harbine, better known for its ice festival. How are you telling this story with a straight face . Im not. Ive been laughing through the whole thing. We were cracking up. Granny is just trying to get her groove on. Trying to have a good time. Arent you glad you live in america . For sure.
