I have been prompting people to respond to this question for the last month by saying: " well,I don't know" to which I respond: "I turned 65 eleven months ago" I been waiting 40 some years to say that. I feel better now. |

Old as I feel depending on the time of day.
Hit 71 last December with a 39 year old girlfriend.
Not a problem now they have this Viagra stuff it's just like being 20 again except for the wheezing!
They say it's bad for your eyesight so I'll stop when I need coke bottle glasses...
My sweetheart gave me a birthday cake that said 17 because she said that looked better
On the plus side, I no longer have to deal with my cow lick, it done run off somewhere!
Started playing PSG when I was 28 and kept getting better until about 6 years ago. It's certainly taken a downturn of late, That is sad but at least I'm still breathing.
I'm shooting for at least 100 years old and have had many talks with the management up above about that. He still hasn't gotten back to me about my request!
My doctor said I should loose weight. He is 36 and I wanna see what he has to say about it when he's my age? I'm only 90 pounds more than when I got out of the army in 1968. _________________ Inlaid Star Guitar 2006 by Mark Giles. SD-10 4+5 in E9th; http://luthiersupply.com/instrument-gallery.html

Times change, and point of view is everything. Fifty years ago, when I played at the local Moose or Elks clubs, they were filled with older people.
But now, it's just a bunch of young 'uns.
