    Besides gaining a little wisdom and experience along the way, the one thing about getting old: it beats the alternative. :smile:

    Maybe write on them, "Return to sender, not going there yet!" :smile:

    When you indulge in certain foods and they no longer agree with you...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    You can ride your bike 100 miles and still move around fine the next day. The youngsters shoot their load early and drop out!

    Nice attitude...and metaphor =)

    I've got the goddamned knee-cracking thing when I stand up.

    And even better, those two irritating vertical lines between my brows, like Vedder's. Still, fuck Botox!

    When you post on a "You know you're getting old when" thread and feel a bit like an old fart... and then you remember that you started the thread and really feel like an old fart. :grimacing:
