You bite into a big juicy steak and leave your teeth in it...

You double-check to make sure you're grabbing the Polygrip and not the Preparation-H.

When you were young , the phrase  "Laying some Pipe " meant the much anticipated after the gig Debauchery back stage .
Now that your old , the phrase "Laying some Pipe " only means a trip to your local hardware store to pick up the plumbing supplies you need to keep the missus at home happy.

You know you getting old when you stop using the Slang Code Words of your youth
 
When I was young the Code Word for hot chicks on a beach was Snapper

 
 
 
 
 
Now that I'm old , getting grey and loosing my vision . The word Snapper only means this

Look at the bright side Kenny.  The fish on the bottom is easier on your heart.

Was thinking about the passage of time and how we perceive it. Ever notice how the longer you go thru time, the faster it passes. Pink Floyd sang about 10 years vaporizing without a clue.
 
Was listening to the Beatles “When I’m 64” song and the giggle about losing my hair “many years from now”. 64 done come and gone even if judged as an eternity into the future at the time of the recording.
 
Sir Elton having no wish to live 60 years on (beautiful song). Changed his mind it seems.
 
Activist Abby Hoffman was one of my favorite back tracks. He coined the phrase “Don’t trust anyone over 30”. In the progression of things, he hit that aged mark and tried to reinvent the quarantine to anyone over 40. Didn’t do his credibility any good. (Rest his soul down there wherever he is…)
 
Was mildly curious how old you warriors are. Can claim my place as the oldest dinosaur around here, headed toward 68. Outside of a few other relics that distort the statistics, picture the median age of forumites to be late or mid 20’s.

I'm surrounded by good-looking 20-somethings at one of my clients. Then I hear one of the receptionists (whose daughter is one of those 20-somethings there) lament that she's going to turn 50 in six years and I suddenly realize that I was programming before she was born...  *Sigh...* 


cheer up charlie!  Turn that frown upside down!

Yes. Someone put it like this to me a while ago - ''When you're 10, a year is a 1/10th of your whole life experience, so it seems endless. When you're 50, a year has become a tiny fraction of your life''
 
I think Larry Alexander is the oldest forum member, he's in his 80s. I suspect the average age around here would be about 45, maybe even older. I don't think many young 'uns bother with internet forums.
 
I'm 57 btw.

Interesting perspective when you look at the sense of time passing with the ratio of time spent. Thanks for this thought..
