The other day my wife found a gray hair on my head and plucked it out. I told her “HEY! I earned that!”

When I am working on something and drop something, I take the time to ponder whether I Really need that. Regardless of the answer I give myself, I wait until i drop something else. That way I get a twofer.
I don't know how many bendovers and get back ups I have left.

That's the truth. There was a time when I bounced off the ground, now I stick.

Took my 14 year old son through the drive through. A couple of weeks later, I went through the same drive through alone. Guy at the window asked "No grandson this time?". I just said "not this time".

Decades ago I was told "If you can't grow old gracefully, do it any way you can." I have proven that graceful doesn't appear on my agenda.
