DANGIT

[chen zhen]

Having a baby-avatar won't make you look younger..

[Former castleva]

Neither will having a bearded avatar make you look mature.

[Oso]

maybe not but it's a lot better than my real face

[Shaolin-Do]

Will my avatar cause spines to grow from... err... nevermind.
Happy bday Oso.
Man, I read this whole **** thread, the first page thinking serp and oso and you f*ckers were like 45+. Then I get to the post that says 33? bahahaha
Im only almost 20, but cmon dude. 33 isnt even the top of the hump yet. You cant really say you're old till you at least hit like 43 or so.... All of the guys I work with are 60 or older

[guohuen]

Y'all are just old! Prolly have vinyl LPs and rifle shot knees.

[MasterKiller]

All of the guys I work with are 60 or older

I knew it. You are a boy toy!

[GeneChing]

I'm with Shaolin-do on this one. Turned 39 this year and was carded at the grocery store on the week of my b-day. That was nice. Then I turned 40 in China last month...

[David Jamieson]

I'm 39 too.

39 is NOT old!!!!!

39 is only "old enough to know better, but young enough to do it again"


Be happy in your youth guys and girls, you only get to be there once.

cheers

[MasterKiller]

39 may not bet old, but sure isn't young, either.

Considering the average American male lives to only approx 75 years old, you are middle-aged. Revel in it. Buy a corvette. Divorce your wife for a 19 year-old beautician. These are your golden years. Enjoy them properly.

Assuming the 19 year old beautician still wants your old arse.

The '63 split back vette is nice, but I prefer motorcycles and I got one of those. + my wife is delicious, no need for an empty headed teenage armhanger.

My kungfu is better at 39 than it was at 30! go figure. I know that when my body starts breaking down for real, I am gonna be hurting for all those indiscretions of youth, but hey, that is what life is allllllll about.

The hokey pokey is all you need to know.

cheers

I think serp was 33, joedoe and I are 35/36.

my birthday is in Aug but thanks SD.
"20" huh...well that clears a few things up

my reference to being old was just about attitude not necessarily physical.

I agree, I think my kung fu is better now then it was when I was 28. But, that doesn't mean I move faster or am stronger. I am definitely getting some of that 'old man' strength that is more determination and willpower than actual physical strength.


but still...using the sort of phrasing that I did WITHOUT conscious thought is just plain scary..


hehe, not a bad post count for a silly thread, even got the assistant publisher and the moderator involved


Oh, and "Logan's Run" was a series here in the states and I was referring to the premise in the show of killing adults at the age of 32...or whatever the age was.

and while we're reminiscing, how 'bout "Space: 1999" They sure lost out on that date but what can you expect since is was produced during the height of the lunar landings, or thereabouts.

Space needs to be opened up for Capitalism and Free Enterprise. Once people can make a buck on it, you'll see all kinds of corporations kicking out some R&D that will get us out there quick. Only then do we stand a chance of not eradicating ourselves on this planet.

[Nevermind]

Actually found myself telling someone about the rap groups I listened to as a kid. I went on preaching about how groups like Boogie Down Productions and Public Enemy were so positive and socially conscious unlike todays "bling-bling" hip hop thugs. That's when I knew I was getting older. I am beginning to think that music was better in "my" day. Ok, now I'm depressed.

My daughter turns 13 this summer...................enough said.
