I am officially "Old"

**Steve Ashton** · 6th January 16, 01:13 AM

As today is my 65th birthday I am now, Officially, an "Old Person".

My hair has been white for some time now. My knees suffer from too many 0'dark:30 formation runs. After a lifetime of perfect vision I now need glasses to read or see close up.

I can join AARP and get reduced rates on almost everything. Boy Scouts will begin to offer to help me across the road.

I guess I'll go to Denny's for my free meal. Then to bed before 8:00pm just to get used to it.

I sure hope my wife does not try to light all the birthday cake candles. They say that it blinds those on the Space Station.

Happy Birthday Steve !

As far as being an " Old Person " ..... let's just see how many " milliennals " can keep up with you .

Very few I doubt !

Cheers , Mike

Happy birthday Steve.
1951 was a vintage year for producing kilt wearers.

Happy Birthday Steve! My wife's birthday was the 5th and mine was the 20th of December and we too are now 65 (so we are old too - but in many cases 'senior' prices are sometimes as low as 55 years).

Well a BIG BIRTHDAY SHOUT OUT to you, Steve in reaching this significant milestone. I'm sure Bobbi will have fewer candles on your Birthday cake than you have earned. Have a toast to your contemporaries who will not be making the same accomplishment. And ENJOY your day!
