Old age starts at 70 and last as long as you do.

I’m going to need a pyramid or something for all of the stuff I’m taking with me.

“I’m going to need a pyramid or something for all of the stuff I’m taking with me.”

This rich man wanted to be buried seated behind the wheel in his Rolls Royce with a cigar in his lips and a scotch in one hand. As the grave diggers passed the car to dig the grave one of them looked in and said, “Damn! Now that’s what I call livin.’”

One of those is really good, and I can’t remember the other two that were excellent.

I wonder what the age breakdown of Freepers is, I expect many of us are in our 70’s and 80’s.

Spokeshave chiming in for the 80's

Eat healthy Mediterranean Diet,..lift weights and swim

Recommended cook book:

Ikaria: Lessons on Food, Life, and Longevity from the Greek Island Where People Forget to Die: A Cookbook Hardcover – Illustrated, by Koutsis.

I find myself wondering more about the hereafter. I go into a room and say to myself, “Now what did I come in here after?

I remember air raid sirens

Rationing of eggs (powdered in green wax coated cartons), being sent down to the shop for 6 penny work of broken biscuits...the advent of plastics (bakelite) radio cabinets and radios working on the mains instead of batteries.

I remember wheat pennies and silver dimes, quarters, and half dollars. Cool stuff back then. Even cooler now.

I have been around here so long that I have been attacked with every possible insult and accused of every known heresy.

The older I get the less I care what other people think of me—we are all going to the great beyond together....

I once got a 1909 VDB penny in change. Heart stopped until I turned it over and found no S mint mark.
