No specific time or age. One day you wake up and realize, "I are one"

Well I yell at the neighbors grand kids when they ride their snowmobile through my yard. Guess I'll have to wait and see what tomorrow holds.

Do you find yourself telling younger people how much better things used to be?

I kinda realized it when they started accusing me of driving like "An ol geezer".

Doc, Those rear ends are a direct bolt in on a 63 Comet (probably Falcon also) if they are 8 inch. If I was closer they would be mine. Those disk brakes also go on so many of the older cars.

Lets see! Did you have an 8 track? Did you watch black and white TV? Do you remember a cigarette commercial on TV? If the answer is yes well then, You're a geezer!!!! Welcome to the club.

Do you have trouble remembering if you were going up the stairs or, down the stairs? What did I open the refrigerator door for? As long as you remember to unzip, you'll be OK

I used to have about 200 of them. I remember the Marlboro man. I had a Mr. Tater head where you needed a real tater. And I used to have a Maverick with a Kenwood 8 track in it. Taught my wife to drive in it. I do business with a hand shake and have never screwed any one over, as near as I can recall. Used to go up to the drugstore with a bag full of tubes out of the TV to check to see which one was bad. I'm a geezer I guess. Dang time flies.
