Well I guess I should keep this thread in reserve for the next time some auto- bot starts to go crazy  lol.

You are getting older because you think that a Blackberry is just a fruit that people eat.

You are getting older because your shoes have Velcro tabs instead of laces,

Shoes? Who wears them anymore. I got inside slippers and I got outside slippers. How old is that?

Sneakers can be very comfy !

Btw if you are an old-timer you can make yourself look 10 years younger with a shave and a haircut.

A cute item for today: You are getting old because your fantasies now involve retirement instead of starlets.

Today's item: You are getting older because most of your favorite authors, actors, and musicians are dead by now.

And the older i become, the more appreciation and gratitude i gain for them and the gifts they shared with us when alive.

The Passage of Time: The other day I got a copy of Life Magazine's special publication entitled : MASH - TV's Most Extraordinary Comedy, 50th Anniversary. Wow it has been 52 years since the movie came out that they based that very good TV series on.

"The passage of time
Is flicking dimly up on the screen
I can't see the lines
I used to think i could read between
Perhaps my brains have turned to sand"

Just today I pulled my Martin out of the case and for no reason started playing the acoustic intro to Roundabout. Recorded by Yes in 1971. Fifty-one years ago. I googled their 2017 Hall induction and was awed by how truly great they were.

Yes we are getting older because we went through our childhood without an infant seat, air bag, or seat belt --- and yes we lived to tell about it.

And Thanks for the posts and videos.

You are getting older because you don't care what your Credit-score is but you can chart your total Cholesterol.

Yup you are getting older because you've bought " The Dark Side Of The Moon " on vinyl, eight-track tape, cassette tape, CD, DVD, and MP3,  lol.
