Half full, or half empty, that is the question?

Calcountry · 12-23-2004, 01:06 PM

Today, I turn 40 years old, and have become quite philosophical about this thing called life. Every year I reflect on what was, what is, and hopefully what is yet to come. At forty, I can't help but feel a little melancholy about the whole thing, because I have much more to look back on that what I use to be use to, go figure. Less to look forward to, but still some significant things are still out there.

I haven't had much time to be my normal post whore self this week so I hope you all will forgive me, NOT.

Anyways, I will wrap this up with a poll, and a Christmas wish to Santa: May this Saturday, our PWNAGE of the Raiders be made complete.

Merry Christmas to all.

BT.

Poll to follow

Think back upon all of your great physical exploits, and recognize that you will never be capable of such feats again. Your only chance of survival now is by being wily.

Jenson71 · 12-23-2004, 01:11 PM

Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas, bunnytrdr.

You're as young as you feel.

Gaz · 12-23-2004, 01:18 PM

You are younger than I am.

And always will be.

You are welcome.

These people are sugarcoating things. Your life is about to slowly descend into hell. Your weight will balloon even if you eat less. Your vertical leap will decline to phone-book levels. Young women will look right through you and never see you. You will find yourself shopping for four-door Buicks. Your coworkers will mention that you're their parents' age. Trust me on this; just kill yourself now if you want to maintain a positive self-image.

Sounds like the voice of experience. But all too true. And about the young women...I don't understand why they don't want me like they did 30 years ago. I still want them.

Some grow young.
Some grow cold.

Yeah, thats funny. Why is it that the 'cunning linguistic capabilities of a crafty, confident, and well built old fart like me out do the young pups every time.

No need for Levitra, YET.

speak for yourself, stickman!!

actually, it can be much worse...

**Rain Man** · 12-23-2004, 04:14 PM

As of today, advertisers no longer care about your opinions. Restaurants will seat you near the kitchen so they can put the young, attractive people near the window. Your elementary school lunch box is now a collectible. When you offer to help carry something for a younger person, they'll say, "Are you sure?" This is the beginning of the end.

Mojo Rising · 12-23-2004, 04:20 PM

I am 34 and I have realized that I have been over the hill for the past 4 years. You are definitely over the hill.

Happy B Day and Merry Christmas!

**Rain Man** · 12-23-2004, 04:29 PM

On the positive side, you are now going to be quite popular among the makers of cholesteral drugs, impotency drugs, and hair growth drugs. Also, no one will ever ask you to help them move since they figure you have no stamina or strength any more.
