Maggie turned over the other day. I had the camera w/ me and took pics at 99999 and 00000. I had the future owner with me. He's a buddy's son and doesn't know I'm leaving the car to him. (that's if Kelly doesn'y have to sell it after I croak.

I got pics of him w/ the car @ 100K which will be really cool once he figures out I had him there on purpose.

.....o'course, I'll be dead and won't get to see the supprised look on his face.
 
Oh, don't worry, it's broken plenty !!! :hammer:

Just ask the P.O.
 
I'm broken too ! Da gout done got me as well as kidney stones, leaking retinal vessels and hearing problems. Man, I hate to see what happens when I get old.

Oh, my back is screwed up too and I have post traumatic carpel tunnel syndrome.
 
at our age, if you're male, 'the lucky ones turn grey'. I'm 64, and wishing I was a few decades younger, but sure glad that I'm living today vs 1960 or 1900 or .... THe first hip transpalnt was condutcted in 1960 or 61; average lifespan in north america in 1900 was 48. Count our blessings, and I've got two bug-eye projects and a bit of arthritis - life is pretty good for all of us.

Aye, I am 72 and can still do what ever to Miss Agatha so all is good.

Now the real problem is my buddies keep dieing. Bummer that.

My Grandfather (totally bald) used to say "God only made a few perfect heads....he covered the rest with hair.".
 
Yeah, my hair line has receded right over th' top. Can't see it without two mirrors anymore. And that's not worth th' effort.

If anyone mentions baldness they get either: "Don't make fun of it... my hair was shot off in th' war."
or: "I had a hair transplant. Had 'em take it from th' top and plant it on my lower jaw."

Kids have the best reactions. :wink:
 
David, I used to quote that "perfect heads" line to my father (he had a full head of hair when he died, I've been going bald since my teen years). I also told him; "Grass don't grow on a busy street." His reply to that was "An empty barrel needs no lid." As I grow older I realize he was probably closer to the truth than me.
