Marshal Dan Troop 70448 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 My brother sent me this and thought I would share it here. Don't know who originally wrote this, but it does make one feel older when so many things seem like only yesterday or last week. I believe this was originally 2021, but still timely.

Pat Riot Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I was 8 years old when the Beatles broke up in September 1968. I hated and still can’t stand Yoko the moron Ono. John Lennon was a talented buffoon. An idiot leftist but talented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 On that list I thought the triplets from My Three sons have to be older then 52. When I checked I didn't realize the show had run into the early 70s. One story mentioned that Don Grady (Robbie) had considered quitting when they cast Tina Cole to be his wife. Said she wasn't his type. She was hot as, you know what. Later they almost did get married supposedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Frank Morgan, who played the wizard, was born in 1890. The movie was made in 1939, so he was 49. I can't find anything giving the age of Oscar Diggs (real name of the wizard) except that all the descriptions say that he is old. How do you come up with 82?

bgavin Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I stepped up on an aisle shelf in Walmart today to reach for a bottle of 409 beyond my reach. Young fella, his wife and baby cheered in good humor... said it was an Olympic Event. Same Walmart, had to jump for a box of BD alcohol wipes on the top shelf. Nobody cheered for that one.

Last time I had something like that in Walmart, I asked the Dad if I could borrow his son. Without hesitation he agreed. I picked the kid, (about 6 or so), up and had him get me what I needed. The kid loved it and Mom and Dad just smiled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Don't particularly want to feel old. It just happens with age. (imagine that!) I was young once, but I wasn't very good at it, so I just settled in and outgrew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Sheridan Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Old age first hit me right after my divorce, when I started realizing the attractive young women that caught my eye were now the right age to be my daughter, and that their plump middle-aged moms were the same age as me. By the same token I'd encounter an old high school classmate, and not recognize them because they were 80lbs heavier and looked like their father. That's when I took a second look in the mirror and realized I looked nothing like my old photos either. I reckon it'll only get worse as I age further... .
