How do we oldtimers continue to cope?  How do we continue to withstand the slings and arrows of outrageous symptoms of aging? 

Personally, I use the mantra I learned from Bill Murray in Meatballs.  Whenever  a new symptom of aging pops up, I think of his pep talk chant with his young campers, and replay it in my head:  "It Just Doesn't Matter!  It Just Doesn't Matter!"

“What” doesn’t matter? I can’t remember. Well, it just doesn’t matter.

i believe in  mother-in-law that she is right about this ( ratty smiles at m-i-l) if we talk abt being old dont we become that way, besides i know this is just all talk.

We are getting old because we know who Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons were.

The Everly Brothers. The Righteous Brothers. Ritchie Valens. Yep, old timer for sure.
