I am getting old. dabnabit!
« on: May 31, 2013, 08:46:31 PM »
I used to consider it a waste if I went to bed before midnight on Fridays. now, along comes 9 PM and I'm thinking of hitting the hay. I haven't watch saturday night live in more than a decade maybe two decades.

I am so getting old. wah.

I can be at a kids pizza place, like Chuck E Cheese. I can have a pocket full of quarters. and i will be unable to waste a single one on a video game.

I usually stay up way too late on Fridays. 

Throws my whole weekend off.

Did you remind the kids to drink their Ovaltine? Remember the 200s? Those years were good I'm told.

I have no clue how to make your dreams come true but I'm sure someone on the board can click it to 50

I get to the breakfast table, and hear the snap, crackle, and pop and it takes me back.

Until I realize that those noises are coming from ME.

OLD, for men it is when Dad brings the morning news paper into the bathroom for his morning ritual and reads the whole thing before you hear the flush.

Old for woman is when they need Depends and stop buying KOTEX.

BTW   I saw an ad for pads for MEN, new item I would think, sort of reminds me of a Cod Piece.

Now I am wondering if the original use of this old fashion was not for looks but needed as our founding fathers had to find an out house at inconvenient times.

It's too bad you didn't think to ask Henry VIII about that. He was big when you were a girl, right?

As a matter of fact yes he was.    Some British band came out with a song about Henry VIII.

I'm Henry the VIII I AM, I got married to the widow next door, she had been married 7 times before.
Every one was a Henry, she wouldn't have a Willey or a Sam, I'm her 8th. old man, I'm Henry, Henry the VIII I am.
