Guest guest Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 Sally, I'm glad i brought a smile to your dial. As the saying goes, laugh and the world laughs with you. I find not taking myself too seriously helps me to cope with my aches and pains. Anyway if I wasn't so bow-legged I'd be nearly six feet tall. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Take care.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 Mike, Getting too short for your weight is just a sign of getting older. When I was in my teens I was about 120 pounds and 5' 11 " I got married at 21 and went into the Air Force about two years later and found I was 6' 0 " and 137 pounds (knew those pants were getting tight ) When I got out of the service at 30 I was 157 pounds and still 6' tall At 45 my arms got too short and I had to get reading glasses. At 50 I was up to about 180 pounds (ideal for a 6 foot man). However, my head started growing through the top of my hair. By 60 I was up to 200 pounds (but now only about 5' 11.5 " tall) I turn 65 next month and hope I will be back down to under 200 pounds (lost 10 pounds since Christmas ) Need to change glasses again as the newspaper can only be read from across the room now ) BUT I can see road signs before anyone iin the family ) Head is rapidly growing through the top of my hair too, all my hair is growing faster on my chin and the rest of my body, I could pass for Moses or Santa in a week ) There are advantages to getting older though. I only have to pay $6 to get into the movies now (adults are $8.50). Since I am retired, I don't have to drive the Beltway in rush hour. And when I go in to buy a new car, I tell them the price I am willing to pay and they say okay ) Of course I looked up the price on the internet and at the Credit Union first ) I also paid a one time charge of $10 and got a lifetime pass to all the US National Parks, so far that has saved me about $50 and I intend to make it cost about a penny a visit for the pass ) Darn Aussie's don't give discounts on airfare to senior citixens though - at least not Quantas ( Most airlines in the states have a senior discount also.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 -- Bill I love the part where your head is growing up above your hair!
