Snow bird? More like snow ANIMAL. Introducing Stone Harbor resident Bill Dougherty: (from Philly): His friends call him Captain Crunch. Bill Dougherty set a goal for his 90th birthday: 1,000 stomach crunches. He was going to do them Saturday, his actual birthday, but Jan, his wife of 63 years, prevailed on him to wait a day or two. They had 46 people coming. I just thought he wouldnt have enough energy left for the party and dinner, she said. I didnt want to take any chances. So, Monday morning, Bill put a towel down on the family-room floor. There were whitecaps on the Intracoastal Waterway out his window, and howling winds outside. But inside, life was calm. Jan didnt pay any attention to Bill or his big birthday goal. She had packing to do. They leave Wednesday for Florida for a few months. Our favorite part of the story: He prefers to work out naked. Pants slide off the chair during stretches.
