Y'll younger folks need to relax---I'm bumping against 70 and dayum has it been a thrilling ride.

I don't help myself by keeping with my "younger" girlfriend--she's a whopping 41 just this past May, she LOVES she's the young hottie----so that simultaneously keeps me young and wears me the F out---in the best of ways. She's a ton of fun, loves doing "guy things" like learning to change her own oil, swap out a flat tire and even accompany me to "help" install windshields in big trucks. (She's great with window cleaner FWIW, ya know wimme's work ) Plus she loves hearing about that part of my life long, long, long before she was even born.

Someone's sudden passing especially when they're younger than us does have us pausing just at bit, we wonder how far along our own countdown clock has left.

as my daughter likes to tell me, i am older than dinosaur dung.
sorry to hear of your neighbors passing scag. but you have to celebrate the life, not morn the passing.
my parents are 90 dad, and 89 mom. they have been married 67 years now.
dad says the secret is when mom starts complaining, he turns the radio up.
mom says the secret is when dad starts complaining, she turns her hearing aids off.

Morning zoo. Yard full of customers and a truck to be unloaded. Friday's are usually the busiest day. We aren't open on Saturday and the customers need their jobs for Fridays and Saturdays. Out of the yard and into the street. Not complaining, a good problem to have.

Thanks Scag but here's the real story, I got half the looks, half the hair, double the weight and live most of my life in shorts and a T-shirt. And I got crappy lawnmowers to boot.
Now what do you think

Yo Scag...You sounded like you might be drooling on yourself last night. I did my usual wake up on the couch at 3:30... but didnt say a word... Just read up 2 days worth of BS.....
Yea man sorry about your friend. Better place though dontcha know....
But you cant be feeling fine this morning....
The wifes 10 years younger than my 64... at this point the major result is not retiring with medical bennies so at least one of us has to keep working until shes 65.... She seems to think its me.... if that keeps me young I guess its ok...
I could do the Most interesting guy in the world thing with my white beard and hair.... except... Im not all that interesting.... and I drink Smithwicks red Ale.... or Titos... or Jamo... or........

MIKE'S HERE!!!!! AWESOME

question....why is it that wives need confirmation that you've heard them or that you're listening?

"What do you think"
"Did you hear me"

I'm right here. How could I not hear you?!? I'm looking right at you.

Dudes just don't communicate that way. THANK GOD

My wife talks so much that I do actually tune her out. So when she prompts me with a question, I have to rewind the conversation enough to make it sound like I was actually listening.
