| When someone points out that you're old.. Posted: 5/8/2008 8:02:51 PM | Well, I feel bad for younger people these days with AIDS and all that stuff. Being an old, old hippy, I'm glad I got to live the days of youth wild and free. Now, all of life is constrained in so many ways. Yeh, I'm old, and I know what it's like to be happy.
On the other hand, you're probably better off dating someone who is not 20 years younger than you. | |

| When someone points out that you're old.. Posted: 5/10/2008 10:01:31 PM | My nephew likes to make that comment all the time, then i point out how bad i've beaten him in basketball and in a race and he usually sulks away
At my age other than not making the long hauls, still can keep up with em even younger than 20!
That may be in part that i refuse to ever grow up!  | |

When the poster, calling you "Old man", attempts to divert the validity of your argument by bringing in personal attributes, it means she cannot refute on on merit. She might as well as said you were wrong because you were fat, skinny, short, tall, etc.
Remember, if you meet her in the forums again, to address her as "Young girl". It appears she is not mature enough to be called a woman, and she's certainly not a lady. | |

I'm old enough and wise enough to just give them time to realize it's gonna happen to them sooner or later. Now if I can just stay wise enough to reach oldest age. That's the Kicker! LOL! Damn Young Whipper Snappers! | |

| When someone points out that you're old.. Posted: 5/11/2008 6:26:15 PM | | I just saw a “UBS” commercial about an old golfer telling the younger kid that when he was younger he hit the ball over a big tree to hit the green. So the kid tries it and smashes the ball and it hits the top of the tree and falls down short. The old guy laughs then tells the kid when he was younger the tree was only a few feet tall. | |

The above was stated by Ronald Reagan in one of his debates with Walter Mondale when Mondale brought up the question of age. Now with a little creativity you could change campaign for "discussion" and change political purposes to "personal reasons" and she would not be back.................. | |

| When someone points out that you're old.. Posted: 5/14/2008 2:27:57 AM | When I was young, an elderly gent was sitting by me on a bench at the local Sears. and I noticed hair growing out of his ears and nostrils. And being a kid I asked him about it, He said "I've run out of room on my head to grow hair, so it's growing inside my head and coming out of the holes on my skull." That so grossed me out I never wanted to grow old. Now ,I'm trimming hair coming out of orifices that I can't get to grow on my head. I knew he lied to me! LOL!
PS " April Showers" I'm honoured and delighted to be a Favourite. | |
