I just realized that the radio station I listen to now would be considered an "oldies" station to my son. I remember when the 50s-60s were considered oldies.

I find it amazing. When I was a kid my parents were listening to big bands and shit from the 40's. I never listened to that when I grew up. But my kids (and grandkids now) still listen to the same stuff I did from the 70's and 80's. But don't ask me about anything out in the last 20 years, I won't have a clue.

Failing eyesight and hearing, tinnitus sucks big time, are the both the worst parts and the best parts of getting old.

I'm 56 and have never felt better, except when I was 46, or 36, or 26 or 16. Other than that, I'm tip-top MFr's!

While I'm in no hurry to gain that experience, I'm sure it will be upon me in no time.

I'll get social security in the first year that they're expected to cut it by 20 percent. It's nice that I won't get spoiled by ever getting the full amount.

Next month will be 40 years since I graduated high school. A year from now will be the 40th anniversary of my joining the Navy.

I wore a Chiefs hat yesterday that's older than most of my coworkers.

Yeah, **** you.

Hahahah! I have a Chiefs hat from 1989 season like Marty wore. People ask me if I found it in a museum.

I have a lot of clothing that went out of style, came back in style, went out of style and is coming back in style.

Proof that my life is a circle.

I just got a new pair of slip ons. Love them! My only other pair are suede loafers. I will never tie shoe laces again! (except my hiking and fishing boots, dont count)
