all you young guys out there - please don't buy into this thing about how great your golden years will be - sure if you get lucky & retire you might not have to drag out of bed in the AM and head to work - my feet hurt - my back hurt - i have half the hair i use to have - my ***** takes much more time off then he use to - even have to buy him a special pill to keep him happy - hair grows like wild fire in my ears - well thats about all i have to say about that - t
PS one good thing - my insurance is only $234.00 for 6 mo's for my 02 - so i guess the above is all worth it

Consider the alternative. It is FAR worse. The only reason you're not getting older is because you're dead.

I don't care what your philosophy is, I agree with the OP, "Getting old SUCKS!" I have the recurring dream that by the sweat of my brow I've just done the latest Mod to the car and die
before I get to try it out! This would be a waste of good Mod money and deprive me of my hobby fun, For a long time. OK, pass me the Prozac.

Gonna be 66 in August and damn happy to be here. Just buy a good set of tweezers for the ole ears, put on a smile and let 'r rip. Yeah, things could be a whole lot worse.

Heck, I feel like a new-born baby! No hair, no teeth and I just wet my pants...lolol. Just kidding, but I drive my vette like there's no tomorrow and when my kids tell me to act my age, I just grin. I feel young in my mind and I ignore all those other things that try to convince me I'm getting older. Don't give in to the idea you're old. It's a government conspiracy.

Plenty of pain in the joints here, but I work out 1 hour 6 days a week,
eat a healthy diet and only have my beer on the weekends. This
formula seems to be working for me. My ***** even seems happier!!
Oh yeah, the vette gives me a nice boost as well.
