You do as soon as you join AARP. You're eligible ...

Unfortunately, the AARP practices shameless anti-Second Amendment bigotry.

Fortunately, here's a trick that works nine times out of ten. The motel clerk asks, "AARP?" to which I reply, "I know I probably look like I'm only 32, but I've been a senior citizen for years." Given I haven't looked like 32 since I was about 40, my reply usually gets a laugh and the AARP discount.

Or... if they're busy, just fumble around looking for your reading glasses and membership card. Most young folks will get impatient and just give you the discount. It's not like they give a crap about it anyway.

I wonder how age and post count would correlate?

Older than dirt and deeper than mud

I tell you it was tough back in the old days: sitting up late at night posting on the internet by candlelight

48 for a while yet...

Another one that couldn't imagine making it to this advanced age, despite my best efforts!

I'm 30. Whew, just barely made that second, odd grouping you have.

At my age, I am old enough to know how young I am and really appreciate the experience of those older than I.

I knew it at 25, but as I get more experience, I realize how much more I have to learn...

Ex-MA Hole · « **Reply #58 on:** December 23, 2008, 06:54:51 AM »

35 going on 95.

23 and I already snap crackle and pop like a bowl of rice crispies

61. Or somewhere around that age. Time for my nap.

65....I think. Yeah, I must be...I got a Medicare card in my wallet.

HForrest · « **Reply #63 on:** December 24, 2008, 05:56:47 AM »

I'm 18, been hanging around THR etc. since before I was 13.

Phyphor · « **Reply #64 on:** December 24, 2008, 05:15:37 PM »

31 going on 10.... or 90, depending on how my back is doing.

Gabster · « **Reply #65 on:** December 24, 2008, 06:25:15 PM »

I am new to this location, in the 67 area of age

43 - I used to know it all, now I'm forgetting it all.

50-something going on 30-something.

I always said if I made it to 50,
the rest is icing: schweet.

I'm an older hard core aerobic dancer.
Music: deep house, techno & cliqhop.
(Th' 60's? Been there. <yawn> Got past it.)

I may be older, but I'll never be old.
"Old" is a state of mind.
Keep changing, learning,
growing, moving ...

Retire? Never.

For me, the "o" word is like
the "n" word for a black man.

Nem, a silver panther

Heh heh, a silver panther with hair growing out of his ears and nose. heh heh

Nematocyst · « **Reply #69 on:** December 26, 2008, 09:52:01 AM »

No hair from the ears, now or ever.
Nose hair? Sure. We're all primates.

I've left a msg for you, G'ster, over here.
Seems we've got a bit of ... misunderstanding to resolve
before we joke around too much.

grampster · « **Reply #70 on:** December 26, 2008, 11:24:06 AM »

Nemo, Sigh.....gotta PM fer ya over at THR.org. Probably longer than your post.

For the record. My comments were not directed in Nemo's way at all. We've talked about this before. He in no way resembles those I object to with respect to climate change/global warming. I have a great deal of respect for his knowledge about this subject. I might not always understand why he concludes as he does. That's because he studies what he talks about.

My disagreement is with those who's motives are about control and the taking away of freedom under the auspices of science. Those folks conclusions are worthy of skepticism. The arrogance of their brushing off any opposition or willingness to consider conclusions other than their own, exposes them and their fraud imho.

Nematocyst · « **Reply #71 on:** December 28, 2008, 04:22:26 AM »

Thanks for your kind words, G'ster.

For the record, I received your PM, read and appreciated it.

We're still buddies

(even if I don't have ear hair).

Well, I now see how this board is divided.....you have the young ones who post here....and then you have the old folks chaperoning the young 'uns from naughty behavior.....

....and I'm right on the fence. Guess I'd better start learning how to chaperone....

and then you have the old folks

The correct word is "older".

"Old" is belittling,
referring to that which is
of little value any longer.

Everyday I'll be older,
but I refuse to ever be old.

"Old" is a state of mind.

How old are you?
