    I can only hope I age with as much grace and fun as my parents and grandparents have.

    Mature?

    We have to do mature?

    No way.

    Last time I looked I was 18 - people keep doing their sums wrong and come up with strange numbers such as 56 and 3/4

    UUH AAH

    That has got to be wrong.

    OK I might actually drive a Nissan Micra, but my mind rides a Kawasaki one litre shaft drive, AKA the green meanie and it is a Micra Sport.

    Mature.

    Humph.

    If aging isn't your issue yet - it will be.

    This whole aging thread has me a bit concerned.

    I'd need to confer with someone who has already seen his youth slip away and has fallen into decrepitude to get the real story.

    Hmmmm....I'd better to talk to Mike1

    Cheers

    Hmmm... I guess I'll just have to drive down to kilt night (tonight is our monthly rabble-rousing ) and see if Panache be spirited away, or no. Perhaps he suffered a Pink Death...

    Every day above ground beats those underground. Except if you operate the Subway train.....
    Old age is not for sissies.
    Aging is a figment of your imagination.. or do I need an old radio to listen to Glenn Miller?
    Your not old until you measure your age in THREE digits...

    Says the man who is turning 40 this year, you spring chicken, you! Who wants to come to a "Death Day" party in July? And, of course, I'll be turning 30 again (for those of you not savvy enough to check my personal profile...hee...hee!).

    Be well,
