    If I had known I was going to live this long,there would have been fast cars,faster women,more whiskey and would have took more chances by arguing more with my wife. This old boy could tell you some tales most of which are true. I have been really blessed with luck. Never been arrested for anything but I did spend three days in jail at the request of my dad,he thought he could slow me down some. But after about a month,more fast cars and faster women. I have slowed down now,I quit driving cars fast. Have not had a even a speeding ticket in the last thirty years. It helps a lot if you know all the cops in your town on a personal basis. I’ve done a lot of things,just have not been caught.[dancindevil]

    I bought a shower head with a wand. Doing hand-stands in the shower isn’t as easy as it used to be. :D

    Old age is telling me maybe, maybe not! The stuff I used to do in my youth scares the shit out of old me! I don't know If I could still jump out of a plane or heli don't think I can climb mountains, or swim oceans like I used to, and some of the more dangerous stuff, I would be downright stupid to even try today, but I got lots of good memories of the younger dumber me who said what the hell, you only live once! Now days, I say what the hell, at least they will sweep up the bigger pieces and try to put them back where the factory placed them!

    What really pisses me off is when I get up in the morning I think I'm maybe in my 30's but then I look in the mirror. [tng2]

    Yea,, ive got a buddy of mine,, im pushing 60,, he's 15-20 younger than me. He was talking about another buddy of ours a few days ago ,, he said , he's always telling the same stories,, never anything new ,,, I told him ,, thats what happens when you start getting old ,, you're not doing all of that exciting stuff that makes exciting stories anymore,,, all we have is the crazy stuff we've done in our younger days . Now , our stories are not as exciting,, but more thought out , and carefully executed. Sometimes. Thats a sign of getting older.

    Yup. I get the eye roll a lot from my kids. “How many times do we have to hear about the time you crapped your red swimming trunks? They floated away, down the Cle Elum River!” It never stops me though. Like my proposed comedy act, the idea is I get the laughs and not necessarily the audience. :D

    Telling the same stories over and over is a sure sign.

    Yea it’s different when most of the “stories” are the truth. We did things back then and got away with it that only would be stories if were to happen today.

    Well, 5 great grandkids(maybe 4........I forget), same amount of hair as when I was 30. I just wish so much of it hadn't moved to growing outta my ears. And at 74 after a week that "old story" is brand new again to me.

    You know you OLD when your Kids and Grandkids want you to tell your stories again, each time you get together, after long time between... OR, They bring out the tape recorder to get your stories on tape, to make a GrandPa Gordon’s Stories. CD...
