First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and
start bragging about it.

Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know
'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of
Algebra.

Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a
nice change from being young.

Eighth ~ One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.

Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable

Tenth ~ Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called
witchcraft. Today it's called golf.

And finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to
laugh at when you are old.
 
Boy! is all of that true. I worked for every gray hair, and the fact that I'm still vertical is a testament to persistance. And meaness.
 
People ask me how I'm doing.

My standard reply is "I'm still alive"..(A take of an Edgar Rice Burroughs Jon Carter of Mars character) When they wonder why I give that reply I tell them, "considering the alternative, not such a bad thing".

Always get a yup, or nod in agreement.
 
My stock answer is: "Adequate. Any claims more grandiose would be gross exaggeration." :devilgrin: :jester:
 
When your body starts to look like a barn find, you know you are in trouble.
