Yeah!

My wife says you might not want to bet your pink slip (the car one, not the lingerie) on that.

A lot of things do get better with age....you'll see.

Bob Paulin is right. That said, I think we've had about enough of this ageist "humor," thank you very much!

 Don't forget the old saying," you are blessed with the look of youth and blessed with the wisdom of time"! or better...George Burns once said, " I feel like a 20 year old....too bad there's none around." Like the rest of you all, age is a state of mind!

Seems like the AARP card costs money(membership) to get a discount. kinda confusing[/quote]

That's funny, my wife and i were discussing this as i brought up the your post. Seems i recieved another offer to join yesterday. I didn't think i'd ever make up the enrollment fee in discounts. If i want to read their magezine I can borrow my brother/sister/moms copy.  :lol:  Now maybe if Speedway or some of these other guys would offer an AARp discount....

Yes and no. I decided on AAA. A little more expensive for the family plan but I do believe the motel discount is deeper and more often taken.

I dropped out of AARP as I was not only getting all their extra promotions stuffed into my mail box but it appeared that they sold my name to other mail box stuffing sending people.

Well, back to the frozen yard work. I find I can push the hose a lot easier in the Winter. And speaking about age and the "your only as old as you think you are" thing, my arthritis keeps reminding my how old I am no matter where my head thoughts are......
Title: I want to be old enough to......
Post by: Bob Paulin on February 14, 2004, 03:26:18 PM
....say anything I want and have the people around me smile and say, "Aw! He's just a cute old guy."

You know what I mean?

Pretty young girl walks by and you comment on her wiggle/jiggle, and she just turns around a smiles at you instead of screaming "Dirty Old Man" at the top of her lungs.

BTW - I am definitely NOT old enough yet - I keep finding that out the hard way - but I look forward to living to whatever age that might be.

Am not sure about this "old guy" stuff. I, for one, am not old.

Have dropped the AARP stuff... not worth the mountain of offers and constant sales pitch. Don't get to use the discounted stuff enough. Looks like the AAA might be in order as I am inclined to buy cars that are closer to my age than current offerings from manufacturers.

None of this is very important... just wanted to try the new board. I like it. himmelberg

Yea, but the age thing in the profile is a bit of a concern to those of us who don't particularly like to get the actual birthdate out in public view, what with all this identity theft stuff going around.

You can't just fill in the year and have it work.  You have to fill in all three fields or it won't load.

so...., since it doesn't like just plain 1945, mine's blank.

You make a valid point, and I have taken my birthdate out of my profile.

I religiously guard my S.S. number - even to the point of having a fairly heated argument with registration about using my S.S. as a patient identification number when I was being admitted to the hospital for coronaty tests.

Thanks for pointing that out.

I didn't like that either so I put a fake date in there with the year pretty close to when I was born.  At least it gives the general idea of how young I am.

I think Carps would agree with that, he has certainly aged well and tells me that I look better with every day.  I'll admit I'm not the gal who some of you met many years back, but I'm not so sure about my looks having improved with age.  Here's a recent picture so you'all may be the judges.....
