Thought 80 was the new 60

There has been allot of people reaching that number and it's like they finished life's race and dropped dead. With one caveat...most of those deaths came with an illness the individual has dealt with for some time. The recent mortality charts show people living longer lives than even 20 years ago...it really makes one take a step back and try to grasp how precious life really is...we all take it for granted.

You’re looking a little rough for 22.
Better stay out of the sun. You’ve had enough !

These statements are an illusion IMO. Treatments have advanced significantly in the last half century. This contributes to more average life expectancy. If they had not been around, I might have bought it in the 45 to 50 range. As they say in genetics, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, and modern medicine may overcome a lot of illnesses, but not all. I remember a brief interview with Clint Eastwood around the time that Unforgiven came out. I think Clint was around 65??. Anyway, the reporter said, hey Clint, you're only as old as you feel, right? Clint said, yeah, I feel about 80.

yeah..you're 22...maybe your left toe is.......

but true too, no one is as old as me....i am lucky i survived sabre tooth tiger attacks, and the pterodactyl fly-overs, and the Spanish Inquisition torture's. .

watching god himself being born, and even Mt. Everest rising from the ground.

yes, i am truly blessed with what i have witnessed over the centuries, but there is one thing, one stinking thing i wish i never, ever was a witness to......

and that is this........

@Phaser Yes we do.
 
Hi,

I've noticed myself lately talking a lot more about how old I am. I really don't think anybody wants to hear it so I'm making a conscious effort to cut it out. The kids I work with can see how old I am. I do try my best to take care of myself, not necessarily to live longer, but to live better. Enjoy your blessings.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

its best to "catch yourself, talking about yourself" than to have others "talk about you" in ways you don't want to hear.

that way, some of the very best conversations you will have, will be with yourself.

of course, the men in the "white suits".......

may be looking for you as well......


.................so don't talk too loud.................

Now that will do you in VERY early. At least no camel toe! Glad I made it past 80, before seeing it!
