Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Now 70 and used MailWasher since its inception. Still play with Wii with my grand-daughter. AND no grey hairs (like my father).

Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
If you're in the U.S. and over 50, you know the dread of the first junk mail asking you to join the AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) that arrives for your 50th birthday. They know how old everyone is.
Except my son. He got one of those letters for his 20th birthday. That's what comes of writing your "9's" so they look like "4's" when you fill out forms.

I wanted my AARP card as soon as I hit 5-0, "gimmie my coupons and discounts dammit".AlphaCentauri wrote:If you're in the U.S. and over 50, you know the dread of the first junk mail asking you to join the AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) that arrives for your 50th birthday.

After years of people questioning my credentials because I looked too young, I'm going to enjoy every minute of it now that it's to my advantage

People keep telling me I look 50 and I will stick to that.

Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
OMG, I can't believe it, despite all the crazy stuff I've done for years I've actually made it this far.
I turned the BIG 6-0 on Sept. 28! Strange, I don't think 6-0, act 6-0 but the calendar says it's true.
.....and I'm not even thinking about any other milestones for a long while.

Went back to school in 1998 and took to computer technologies like a duck to water.
22 customers; web hosting, too.
Shame I can't make much money, though - merely a penalty of self-indulgence and cowardly marketing.

As a teenager I guess it sounds cool.
.....hey, maybe I'll put on some Hendrix or Zeppelin (and I also still have them in 8 track).

Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
I'm pleased to see that I'm still a mere youngster at 65, even if I don't feel too sprightly after moving tons of Christmas Stock around this week for our Candle Shop in town!
I need to earn on line to provide a big enough "Pension" to pay off all the debts this recession has brought me.......... workin' on it, but not efficiently enough!

I totally agree! Recently declared that middle age starts with 60, and if I say so, it counts!AlphaCentauri wrote: We are the Baby Boom. There are more of us than there are of them. We're not old until we say we're old.

Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
When I was 6 I couldn't wait to be 7, so I could learn to ride a bike.
Then when I was 10 I couldn't wait till I was 13, every one I knew was a teenager.
Then when I was 15, I couldn't wait to be 16, so I could drive, hardly any one I knew was 20.
When I turned 20 I could hardly wait to be 21, so I could legally drink beer, hardly any one was over 30.
I got married and got a good job, had a family, retired at 51, hardly any one I knew was over 65.
Had our grand children, and now our first great grand son, and guess what, 76 doesn't look to bad.
75 years old, married for 54 years, worked at one job for 30 years, retired 24 years ago.

Re: Just curious, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Delighted to see that I'm by no means the oldest here at 62. .... despite having recently been told that I look like a hard-drinking 61 year old!
