It was originally made because of the kids' comments but nowadays it seems to come more and more from ummmm yep socks to say!! We have an inside joke that we often say when our friends are over how I've become a Tar Heel fan recently!! Go Blue! |

...when you think of something clever to write on this thread so you turn your computer on and log in and start to post your clever remark about being old and then forget what you were going to say.

Did your comment have something to do with being old by chance? BTW, has anyone here seen my reading glasses? |

Single Day I get up from the chair in my office and walk out of my office to do/get something. I get 10 feet and I CAN'T REMEMBER the mission. I have to go back into my office and wait until the needle in my brain hits that spot on the record again. Quote:

No blue pills here. Doctors took that activity away with my racing license almost 4 years ago. The only sodium in my diet is the saltpeter pills they are making me take. Ask me again why I haven't slashed my wrists yet?????

I did opt for the transitional bi-focals though. Just because I'm old doesn't mean I want to advertise it even more with the line through the middle of my lenses. |

I'd also like to add the reason you haven't slashed your wrists is because you're journey isn't finished yet. |

The other one was hours of prep work, followed by a few minutes of elevated heart rate, hoping for a second place finish before hitting the road. I used to have a one-off custom bumper sticker on the front of my race car that said, "Racing and sex are not spectator sports." My DW heard me say it in the paddock of an event once, and had the sticker made to put on my car. Believe me, you can't appreciate either until you've been in the driver's seat. You also can't truly appreciate either...until you can have neither. I love my DW and my race car equally as much. Final answer.....

...you know you're old when you know what this is.
...you are really old when you can describe how it works to somebody. ...you are really really old when you an tear one down and rebuild it. Last edited by sygazelle; 07-31-2020 at 09:05 PM.. |
