I'm 67. 70 is right around the corner
How did this happen?
Don't know about you but for me it was my kids and wives fault. You celebrate your kids birthdays, your wife's birthday and your own birthday every year so for me it was 4 birthdays a year, it's no wonder I woke up one day and thought how the hell did I get this old, what happen?

As I tell my kids, I have to grow old, i don't have to grow up! I usually follow this up by sticking my tongue out at the smarta** in question.

Think like a 35yr old, expect the body to do the same, I heal like a 80yr old, and some days I feel the same. Look at least going on 70 but the calender dates me at 60.

My grandfather used to say "God is sure cruel!" "You come into this world naked, no hair, can't even feed yourself, drooling & peeing everywhere. Then after you learn everything, you end up with no hair, drooling everywhere, can't do anything for yourself." "Why didn't god make us with all the knowledge installed?"

An elder friend once told me about being a beer delivery man the forties and had to stop at all the dives up and down the old valley pike. He went in this place oiled floors and the whole smoky bit. The proprietor collared him when he was filling up the beer cooler and said "You been lookin at my girlfriends (the waitress) butt!" My friend who was a really big man twisted his arm loose and said "Look mister, I've got a gal at home that's so pretty her butt would make your girlfriend a Sunday face!"
I've spent my whole life around rough men, rounders and bar fighters, Vets and Carrier Military men from the Spanish American to the Gulf Wars, but I can definitely say, I've never heard a statement like that! LOL LOL LOL
