I found this timely, because today I was in a store that sells sunglasses,
and only sunglasses. A young lady walks over to me and asks, "What brings
you in today?"

I looked at her, and said, "I'm interested in buying a refrigerator." She
didn't quite know how to respond.

Am I getting to be that age?

I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that
everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse. I can't afford one. So I'm
wearing my garage door opener.

I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is when you still
have something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.

I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age and calling it
“'Pumping Rust."

When people see a cat's litter box they always say, "Oh, have you got a
cat?" Just once I want to say, "No, it's for company!"

Employment application blanks always ask who is to be called in case of an
emergency. I think you should write, "An ambulance.'

The older you get the tougher it is to lose weight because by then your
body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.

*The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a
replacement.*

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's
really in trouble..

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words ' The' and ' IRS ' together
it spells 'Theirs...'

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your
age and start bragging about it.*

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to
know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads
weren't paved.*

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Ah! Being young is beautiful but being old is comfortable.

Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth.

May you always have Love to Share, Cash to Spare, And Friends who Care.

From Grandpa old = When what you did all night now takes you all night to do.

Stores these days sure make it hard on us oldsters! They put everything right in front of your face so you can't find it without help!
