Just looked at your profile.

From my point of view these are the rantings of a mere adolescent.

During a prolonged session in the dressing room of our Old Timer hockey team we were lamenting a pathetic loss to some younger players. One of our guys testified to his advancing age by saying, "There was a time when I believed there was no such thing as a good looking 50 year old woman. Now they're everywhere!"

There's still hope. You'll just have to wait until you're old enough.

Lilred,

I can relate. People now regularly call me ma'am and I'm not even forty yet.

I'm with you though. Age is just a state of mind. A lot of people have told me I don't look my age, and I can't believe all of them are just being nice.

As for spunk, I have a grandmother and great aunts that are in their 90s and they're still spunky. It all has to do with your attitude. If you think you're old, you're old.

Getting old? Still beats the alternative. I like to wake to the green side of the grass. I awoke the other day and didn't see the green side. It snowed. I thought maybe heck froze over and I got on the wrong elevator.. the one that went down instead of up. Look at the senior discounts ya can get and don't forget how hard ya worked to get to be that .....ah.....old?... I just got home a few days ago after heart attack #6. Guess one of the 3 bypasses got plugged..I spent a good day hunting last Saturday, got back to the truck and only got about a 1/10 mile down the road when it hit me and hit me hard. Whew, did make it out of the woods..they didn't have to wait for the crows to find me and I didn't have to hide the backside tight in a rock to keep the possums away...I managed to drive the 4 miles home but didn't make it into the house...instead, I hit the door and the wife came out..the rest is history after the 911 call...So yea, I want to be an old man so I can chase those wild women with the red hair around till they turn gray...and can get away with it....dirty old man...lmao...

Skeeter,

I'm glad to hear everything turned out ok. That's scary.

You're right, growing older is better than the alternative. I lost my Mom when she was quite young (56) and I always remember how hard she fought to make it another year. So, I might complain a little on occasion, but I'm really grateful for every year that I get.

Also, the women on both sides of my family (Mom excepted) live forever. I have a grandmother who is 95, great aunts in the upper 90s and a great grandmother who lived to be 99. Given my genetic background, I'm not even in middle age at 37.

For the ladies, I remembered this and dug it back up. I wish I had written it but it comes from the bottom of my heart anyway, for the gals.


Beauty of a woman

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears
The figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair

The beauty of of woman must be seen from her eyes
Because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul

It is the care she lovingly gives
The passion that she shows
the beauty of a woman with passing years--only grows

I wrote down the ditty but forgot to write down the authors name.

So ladies just remember, your not getting older, just better. Like fine wine.

P.S. LILRED, I have Grandaughters almost your age, now think how I feel. I'm still a boy trapped in an old mans body.

Billy,

That was a nice poem. I wish more men thought that way.

Lilred.

Don't let it bother you.

Just wait until they offer you a senior citizen discount and you are only 46.

Well a lot of us do but some are bothered by peer pressure and won't admit it. It's a guy thing. It looks cool to chase some 20 something when you're 60+. Not.

[Jabba]

My wife of 15 years is pregnant with our first child. We are going to be new parents at 38!!

Older... Phooey!

Jabba,

Congratulations. That is so exciting.

Be sure to let us know when the baby arrives.

Billy,

I suppose it may be a "guy thing". I just have never understood it.

I suppose a lot of men would say they don't understand me as well, so I guess maybe we're even.

[Jabba]

Men will NEVER understand women and I know WHY.

Because men are bound by the constraints of LOGIC!



Just kidding ladies... well sort of anyway.
