    I dunno, some of the people I run into seem to have quite an imagination no matter how old they are.
    Just groovin' to my own tune.

            When you get really old like me you get to start over as you don't remember all the dumb stuff you did in the olden days. See what you have to look forward to.

                  How can you be the only one that feels that way?
                  I'm real good at it... As much as I hate to admit..
                  Doesn't seem to be a shortage, seem to repeat some..why? Good question...

                    The nice thing for me is that I can't remember all the dumb things I did, so I get to do them over for the first time, again.

                      I don't know if this ties in, but somehow I think it does. Had the big monthly meeting today. 50 people or so. I actually got in a quick comment that made everybody laugh, but there was so much stuff going around the table, you gotta be quick.

                      So somebody says, I know I'm going to cause a conflict with this statement but....and then went on to say something I can't reconstruct precisely, but it was about how he and his wife don't go without conflict every minute of THEIR lives, so in the workplace we might as well put it all on the table, and....

                      Immediately a lady shot back, "You KNOW there's functional conflict and dysfunctional conflict."

                      Everybody laughed and I was inhaling to say, "So if you and I are arguing, which one of us is dysfunctional?" ....

                      But I missed it. I was a half second too slow. Somebody else said something different. I'd scored already anyhow.

                        Still, getting old and messing up ain't all that bad. With age comes experience, if not always grace and wisdom. I've gotten this one in the mail more than once in a couple weeks, so it's going around:

                        Ya' gotta love this guy! Meet Walter Barnes - All golfers should live so long as to be this kind of old man!
                        Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?" 80% held up their hands.
                        The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.
                        "Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
                        "I don't have any," he replied gruffly.
                        "Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual.
                        "How old are you?"
                        "Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands.
                        "Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?"
                        The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply, "I outlived all them assholes."
                        Then he calmly returned to his seat.

                          yes.
                          if you are real stupid you have permanent reminders.

                              I actually can't remember where the scars came from, just that they were automotive in nature. But then, there are so darn many of them!
