Well I Guess It's Time For Someone Who IS Older To Comment.... Age Is Really Just A Number On Your Drivers Licence, Iv'e Been Retired For 11 Years, I Enjoy Good Pain Free Health, And The Only Medication I Take Is A Tablet A Day For Moderatly High Blood Pressure. I Think My Outlook Towards Life And My Sense Of Humour Have Contributed Greatly To My Good Health. Also Being Single Means I Can Literally Do What I Want And Screw Anybody Who Doesn't Like My Eccentric Behavour...:2thumbsup:. Doing Silly Things Like Fulltime Barefooting And Growing Dreadlocks Make Me Smile Each Time I Pass A Mirror. I Love Communicating With People On This Site Who In Some Cases Are 1/4 My Age... If I Had To Offer Advice To You Younger Peeps, It Would Be, Always Keep Your Mind Fresh And Young, Once You Think Like An Old Person You Will Be One, Regardless Of What It Says On Your Drivers Licence. Cheers Glen.
I am looking forward to soon taking a long walk out into the jungle and not coming back. I have lived a full life, most of it I wouldn't change, some of it I would do vastly different but one can not undo history. Yeah, I'm real ready for the last hike.
Seems like a good time to do so, not saying I'm gonna speed up the process, but if it works that way, then thats just fine with me.
I look forward to acting any damn which way I want to act, and it being FINE (in that nobody is going to say anything to the contrary). I look forward to grandchildren and giving them back to their daddy (my son) and my future grandbaby's mama.
Really looking forward to working until I'm 92 years old because there ain't gonna be no pension before that.
Nothing, Think I'm going to need knee and hip replacements a lot earlier than necessary and thats from blaming it on the sunshine, blaming it on the moonlight, and blaming it on the boogie Plus old people smell bad
at my age? still being alive, for as long as i continue to be. that and continuing to learn new things, continuing to see the world changing and unfolding.
Well,I'm there and I would say -you will be lucky to get to be old. Stay active(I'd say roofing is pretty active)so you can still dance and do all the fun physical things you do now. Stay mentally active so that you have all your marbles into later life. All my people died in their 40s-50s because they led sedentary lives--bankers-real estate-pharmacist and had typical american diets,etc. Hell,I remember some of the toys I played with in the crib. I went total veggie for 30 years or so and now eat a little fish and turkey at Thanksgiving,otherwise I'm sure I would have gone toes up long ago. Try and always go for the laughs in ANY situation. A sense of humor about life and especially about yourself will getcha some extra years---you betcha!! Hope this helps some of you hapless pukes.
I have told my kids that the first time I have to wear a diaper--do not put it on and around my ass--put it over my face and hold it there real tight until I quit squirming. I'd rather be worm chow than have someone deal with my ----.
