A lady goes to the bar on a cruise ship and
orders a Scotch with two drops of water. As
the bartender gives her the drink she says,
'I'm on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birth-
day and it's today..'
The bartender says, 'Well, since it's your birth-
day, I'll buy you a drink. In fact, this one is on
me.'
As the woman finishes her drink, the
woman to her right says, 'I would like to buy
you a drink, too.'
The old woman says, 'Thank you.
Bartender,I want a Scotch with two drops of water.'
'Coming up,' says the bartender.
As she finishes that drink, the man to her left
says, 'I would like to buy you one, too.'
The old woman says, 'Thank you.
Bartender,I want another Scotch with two drops of
water.' 'Coming right up,' the bartender says.
As he gives her the drink, he says, 'Ma'am,
I'm dying of curiosity. Why the Scotch with
only two drops of water ?'
The old woman replies, 'Sonny, when you
are my age, you've learned how to hold
your liquor. Holding your water, however,
is a whole other issue.'
'OLD' IS WHEN... Your friends compliment you on your new alligator shoes and you're barefoot..
'OLD' IS WHEN... A sexy babe or hunk catches your fancy and your pacemaker opens the garage door.
'OLD' IS WHEN... You don't care where your spouse goes, just as long as you don't have to go along.
'OLD' IS WHEN... You are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police
'OLD' IS WHEN... 'Getting a little action' means you don't need to take any fiber today.
'OLD' IS WHEN... 'Getting lucky' means you find your car in the parking lot.
'OLD' IS WHEN... An 'all nighter' means not getting up
to go to the bathroom !
god bless
You arrived at old? What age is that? I’ve been here for a while, and I’m only 68.
I celebrate my 4th 20th +2 Birthday this week. I prefer them that way.
My body is in its fifties. My brain swears up and down it is 17.

Ha! you’re just a child.
Trust me, when you’re my age you’ll see how...
Time really does fly. I remember waiting for Christmas when I was 10. 1/10 of my entire life waiting.
Especially on a Uranus thread. ;-)
I may get older—hopefully much, much older—but I ain’t lettin’ the ‘old man’ in!
Thanx, I needed that, especially not caring where your spouse goes as long as you don’t have to go too.
Nahh .. I HAVE one of those ... I'm waiting for two twenty year olds
I look through 18 year old eyes.
Lol!
Getting old is inevitable. Thinking old is not.

I take Humalog and a fluid pill, so I can sympathize with her, Make it Scotch on the Rocks, please.
I am embracing my Codgeryness…;)
No problem with the thinking part, but my bones and muscles don’t want to cooperate.
Me too except my body has started to reject the 17 part.
Being called “old man” is similar to being called “fat ass” in my book. I’m 63 and just joined a new company filled with millennials.
One that I’ve never met in my life called me “old man”. I told her “I’ve never met you or even know your name. If you’re a member of the Welcome Wagon, you should hand in your resignation”.
She calls me by name now and with great respect.
