Once you hit 60, time moves fast.

I say that every 10 years.  Once you hit 30, 40, 50,

I found out that, because I'm over 65, I'm in the group called "Frail and Elderly". (Yeah, I know.)

lol is there other groups with other adjectives?
70+ "Withering away elderly"
80+ "Is he still breathing elderly"
90+ "This guys costing us a lot of money elderly"

My kid invited me to go pheasant hunting in western Kansas this weekend. We were talking about what to bring, travel arraignments, etc.

We were laughing and joking about stuff and he suddenly got serious and said, look dad. I just want you to know, this is gonna be a long day. We will be walking miles and miles. I just want to make sure you're up for it.

If I could've slapped him through the phone I would have.

I was like, how fuckin old do you think I am, kid? I may not run marathons or play hockey like you, in fact, I know I can't. But I can sure as shit still walk.

I never thought I'd see the day that the EMCers would be sitting around comparing medicare plans.

Ain't none of us gettin' any younger

It does scare me a little. In 10-15 years who's gonna answer my Mastercam questions? The amount of knowledge and experience on the various MC forums is astounding.

In 10-15 years things are gonna be made with a chisel anyway.

You know you're old when you have more toes than teeth.

One day soon though it will hit ya that you just can't do the things you use too.

Once you get over the hill you just pick up speed going down the other side.

We have a guy here working at the shop that I would have swore was in his late 60's, early 70's and he looks in bad shape for that.  I found out a few weeks ago that he's only 3 years older than I am. 

He must have had a rough life.

I never thought I'd see the day that the EMCers would be sitting around comparing medicare plans.

back in the day, I never thought I'd live long enough to worry about Medicare...
yet now I've outlived 90% of the people I grew up with
