    You know your old when...
    You are perfectly happy to wear the same thing for three days in a row, or even four.

    That's why when you're checking your mail and the neighbor is outside, you wind up switching back and forth between a couple shirts...

    I thought I was the only one. I went to the gym yesterday left and went to the auction to buy cars. I changed shirts but kept the same pair of shorts I was wearing. Its outside with a bunch of other stinky people, no one cared.

    When you get older, or just plain old, you figure "what the hell", why bother to comb my hair.

    They converted a skate rink into a high class bar in the early 80's and it opened the first week liqour by the drink became legal in NC. Barbara Eden was the first performer, it was a wild night. They were stacking whiskey in front of the bar and shoveling ice out of coolers while Barbara danced on top of tables. Not a half bad singer.

    #2320 3 years ago

    In the early '80's, I worked for MaBell and my Telco truck was fully stocked with every Western Electric phone made, as well as kits to change the colors. Those days we had to make up the label with the customers phone number to be placed on the dial as well as provide directories.
    Days long gone...

    You can buy your own "I Dream of Jeannie" bottle. It is made of brass so it will be practically indestructible should you think you might like to curl up with it while in deep slumbers, dreaming your hear Jeannie calling for you to join her in her bottle.

    Cheaper models can be located on Ebay for cheaper money. But they are made of glass and would not be suitable for anything other than the fireplace mantle. You could still peek inside and dream a little, though.

    #2323 3 years ago

    I know what you are doing to that bottle

    My grandmother used to say that. I don’t want to be old. I’m working toward that heart attack to just take me out.

    When I was a wild ass punk I used to sing along with Roger Daltry,
    “ Talking ‘bout my generation. Hope I die before I get old”.

    Key words here are “ used to”.

    Now I am happy to be “just fading away.”

    You are old when you remember Raquel Welch in a 1966 movie titled Fantastic Voyage with a small submarine that could be injected into the human body and repair body parts that need fixing. I was completely fascinated with that movie as a 14 YO kid.

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060397/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_60

    And now you see that a small boat that is smaller than a human hair has been 3D printed. So small that is could be injected into the human body and go fix things.

    It is sort of like how Apple's iWatch made the Dick Tracy watch come to life.
