    I got my 'first' grey hairs at 16, and went down hill from there! There is also a good reason behind my avatar.

    When you have socks and under wear older than your co-workers.
    In school: We learn lessons, and are given tests.
    In life: We are given tests, and learn lessons.


    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.
    This ain't your Grandma's sewing circle.
    EVERYONE!

    With apologies to Jeff Foxworthy:

    You might be a Geezer

    You might be a Geezer if:

    1. When you see an attractive teen-age girl, it reminds you of your daughter.
    2. Cutting the grass has become a consuming passion for you.
    3. You really believe you look good in purple and white.
    4. All the artwork in your home is in plastic frames.
    5. You show people family pictures more than once a day.
    6. Your favorite waitress automatically gives you decaf.
    7. You think of Led Zeppelin as traditional music.
    8. You write letters to the editor in the hopes it will change someone’s mind about something.
    9. You really believe there hasn’t been a good American car built since 1970.
    10. You can’t remember why jogging used to be fun.
    11. When you meet friends, the main topic of discussion is the most recent surgery one of you had.
    12. You have a favorite chair.
    13. You stay to talk to your barber, after your hair is cut.
    14. You own a poodle (or Pekinese, or Chihuahua.)
    15. Your main social activities involve church or bingo.
    16. You wear a sweater when the temperature gets below 70 degrees.
    17. All the varieties of cereal in your pantry have bran in them.
    18. Your art collection consists of old calendar pictures.
    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger - or else it gives you a bad rash.

    It's more a state of mind than an age. I crossed over a long time ago. Most of the time old geezer fits me, but I can become a grumpy old man pretty quick.

    When your kids start looking old. jd
    It seems that people who do almost nothing, often complain loudly when it's time to do it.

    When you figure the last shoes you bought are probably the last pair you ever are going to need and wonder if you will be around long enough to justify buying green bananas

    At least ten years older than I am. I'm currently 25 but have 52 years experience at being 25. I don't plan on growing up or old.

    Went by Walmart about a year ago with a long list from my wife. I also had picked up a 4 pack of Guinness, and 6 bottles of Yuengling Black and Tan as my personal reward for doing the shopping.

    Anyhow, fixing to go through checkout, got there at the same time as a black feller in a ARDOT vest (Arkansas Department of Transportation), looked to be in his 30's, told me to go ahead, I thanked him, told him the beer was my reward for doing the shopping, then proceeded through checkout. Other Delta folks around.

    Then another black feller behind me asked the checker, “Ain’t you going to card him”?

    I responded, “What for? ... “for being too old?”

    They all busted out laughing. They were all still laughing when I wheeled the cart on down towards the exit.
