You guys did that too?

My second best customer is big into voodoo. I am basically his voodoo pharmacist for what his witch doctor prescribes. He buys roosters, hens, baby chicks, pigeons, guineas, quail, doves and the occasional goat.

It takes a very specific voodoo prescription to make a trapper run into an angry beaver, in murky, Canadian water.

I'm 62 and apparently haven't hit "mid-life" yet; I haven't experienced the "crisis".

I skipped the mid life crisis, I am now enjoying an "over the hill crisis".


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

I will answer this in all seriousness, a lot of guys in their 40's get sick of the life they have at that point for a variety of reasons. Many change partners, jobs, buy things that they would not have thought they needed to buy. I took a job requiring me to be gone more, working harder, lot more stress in my life. Can't go back and do things over, but if that was my mid life crisis it certainly fits the time frame. The 2002 market crash, again in 2008, and getting to retirement in 2017 kind of aligned my life around family not dollars and this present crisis will not matter.

I have been accused of having one but since I am 73 I told them that it was more like an end life crisis.

If only it was a mid life crisis!


I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!
