trust me I do, but I just wish they would take their sweet bloody time about disappearing into the past like they do. I only feel 20 in my head, but my body has started developing strange aches and pains and doesn't bend and twist like it used to. And where the hell did the spare tractor tire come from?!?! I did mention in another post, that as a motorcyclist who hits mid-life crisis can't buy a motorbike to re-live their mis-spent youth, I've had to go and buy myself a skateboard instead. I've got it all wrapped up and ready to put under the tree for Christmas morning too. Can't bloody wait! ER here I come. You'll know where to find me on boxing day so you can sign my plaster cast. :)

And then their teenage kids take it out for a spin and write it off anyway!...My kids came later in life so they aren't teenagers yet. I get to look forward to that when I'm well and truly into mid-life. :) I hope folks like Jimmy and his fellow refined gentlemen of extended years, don't take too much offence at us young blokes bitching about getting older :).
Don't leave the guard off a wall fan when you test it.

You end up with 10 stitches
Ed, MickR, et al: This is the rejected ambi speaking. Get used to your new utterances and stiffness in places that you never knew existed. Put on your learning caps, you're going back to school to learn a whole new language related to growing older, (and in some cases wiser). A positive attitude is the needed ingredient to keep from doing the 'old men carping about all those young whippersnappers' syndrome. I've frozen my mental age (after regressing) at 18, the brink of adult like foolishness. My new motto posted on the wall is "Let me tell you about old age. Age is old, I am not." Keep up this pissing and moaning instead of celebrating everyday or I'll have to get a quart of energy drink and hit all three continents to deal with the bunch of you 'young'ns' in face to face thumb wrestling. And I'll even let you use your dominant hand!
