Terrifying effects of aging!
Bear with me, there's a point to this, and of course it's ol'Zardoz, so there will be pictures of girls.....
Feo Y Loco, the band my wife sings backup with has been around about 20 years. Like a lot of local bands, they have had a few changes in the line-up over the years, a couple of drummers, and about a dozen Deconettes, what we call the backup singers. The band had a show last weekend, and were fortunate to have one of the original Deconettes, Jennifer, come and sit in. Jen Jen came back into town all the way from Paris France to visit her folks for the holidays.
Now on to the terrifying effects of age...

Here's me and Jen Jen about 1992-93, most likely at a New Year's gig, as I am wearing a suit.(check out those big 80's glasses!) Jennifer left town shortly after this time to pursue a modeling and singing career in France...
And.....

here we are a few days ago! 17 years later Jen Jen still looks the same, but as you can see, father time has beat me with a stick!

Jennifer still looks great - and your glasses aren't bad either.

... and what's wrong with you? You look more mature and that's all. We men are like wine if you ask me; older (mature) and better.

I don't know, Zardoz. Yeah, Jen looks great, but so do you. I happen to be one of those people who think that people tend to look better with age, and it's not entirely about the packaging, but what shows through from within.

At least that's what I keep telling myself.

That could be because you continually get better looking - not true for all of us, I think!

Well, you know, some wines are "best drunk now."

Isn't it great when we more experienced men get to have the same young woman?
