Newfangled Junk!

oh your culture is so advance we thank God. I am 37 and I am still to learn how to drive and most cars around here are used cars and manual, no automatic cars no rear cameras. Infact I saw a rear Camera in a car for the first time last Thursday when an aunty at church gave me a lift.

please Lynx I have why does everyone refer 30s and 40s as old. I thought it was midlife

Depends on perspective. At my job I have been told, to my face, by a 17 year old boy, "I'd punch you out if you wasn't an old man." (They don't teach a lot of grammar these days, it seems.) But our piano player at church is in her early 70s (but can still play better than anybody else) and says I'm still a boy.

It's kind of like the term "yankee." It depends on how far south you live. A yankee is anybody who lives more than 50 miles north of wherever you are.

Two cowboys down in San Antonio:
"You ever go up to Dallas?"
"Nah. I never did like them yankees."

Two old women at a nursing home:
"You ever try flirting with that new guy that runs the meal cart around?"
"No way! I ain't having nothing to do with no kid."

No one is old in their own view. My body has signs of wear and tear, but the rest of me is just fine. I'm 74, btw.

It's God's job to change us. I'm for sure not the same person as I was 50 years ago, or even 5 years ago. Everyone I know is grateful for that.

I think of my mother at 70 and know she was in better shape then than I am now at 70...

She lived to be 90, but I do not expect to. It would certainly be a miracle if I did!!!

Thank you, dear Edith! May a long life well lived be your portion, as well!

As it is I am very grateful to God for being gracious enough toward me to have allowed me to survive the stupidity of my youth...

Now I must manage to survive the stupidity of my senior years LOLOLOLOLOLOL
