My Dad has a great theory - old age is a moving target; Anyone 15 years older than you are is 'old'.

When you're a kid, a 30 year-old is 'old'.
When you turn 30, a 45 year-old seems 'old',
When you're 45, a 60 year-old seems 'old'
and when you're 60, a 75 year-old is now 'old'.

My Dad's turning 90 this year, so he tells me he's "pushing the envelope", but still calls the 100+ fellow down the hall "The old guy"!

Jack Nicholson said it best about Old age,
Never pass a bathroom, never trust a fart, and never waste a woody.

Well I certainly hope no one asks about your hemorrhoids......

I was doing pretty good but a week before my 61st birthday I rolled my Harley end over end and ended up with a broken shoulder and 8 ribs. I have about 80% of my strength back.

There is no way I could fabricate a good enough story to use that explanation.

Not that I'm old yet (officially you can't be old till you get the seniors discount and I'm a good ways off from that yet!)...but I already have to wear hearing aids from work related hearing loss. I hate wearing them for the most part, and usually forget to put them in. Then it always seems that the bank teller, or clerk, or whoever I'm dealing with, has some quiet little mouse voice that is some high frequency that I can't hear anymore. So I lean over to be able to hear them better, and they get this alarmed uncomfortable look at the guy leaning over the counter at them. Hey, no need to press the silent alarm there miss, just speak up a bit louder than a mouse fart please.....
