Thread: Man, I really hate it when ... I realize I'm middle aged ....

I feel your pain. I turned 43 a couple of days ago. It's depressing to note that the average male life expectany here in the US is about 77. So that means I'm past middle age (43X2=86). Hell, I've got one foot in the grave!

Some Dave Ralph ..... some Max Graham perhaps?

I spent many nights watching Dave Ralph run the place in DC. Unbelievable

By the way, when I fret about not being in my 20s any longer, I remind myself of the friends I have had, some a little older, some a few years younger who are already dead.

It usually takes me right out of that self pity and reminds me that I dont HAVE to be getting older.

Unfortunatlely that type of reality check involves attending funerals of your dear friends. On the bright side, my passed friends would enjoy knowing that they helped me learn to appreciate the rest of my life.

wtf is up with that?

I don't have to look that closely to see my gray hair. I'm glad I still have to go to the barber, but when I do there is a lot of gray hair on the ground when he's finished. My barber and I have a good rapport and one day he was messing with me and told me that I had a pretty good bald spot appearing. I know it's not the end of the world or anything but I immediately felt the top of my head and he started laughing hysterically. Along with the other guys waiting for a haircut. Funny guy... :10
I also own a boat that I just love being in, in the summer. This weekend I'm taking it out of the lake and storing it in my garage for the winter. Very sad. :3

Eh, I wont be old till I am dead and my granddaughter is trying to win a child beauty contest with the "She is a kinky girl" song.

Uggh. It happened again today. I was reminded of my age in the parking lot of the hardware store. I was walking across the lot and a badass mint 6.6L Turbo T/A came rumbling down a lane. Those were the things that high school dreams were made of.

On my way back to my car I saw that the T/A was parked next to me - with a Historic Vehicle license plate.
