I’m in my 60’s and I still laugh at fart jokes. I will never be elderly.

At 57 I’m not far behind you. One of my life slogans is “you’re only young once but you can always be immature.”

When I was a kid, people seemed to age faster than now. People in their 50’s and 60’s looked old, acted old and dressed old. Not anymore.

I work as a senior volunteer with a Christian youth adventure organization. One of the other senior guys, in his 70’s is taking off for his annual weeklong solo backpacking trek. (I wish I was retired)

#12, In your 70’s, you are creating the farts that everyone is laughing about and being gassed by.

I have a lot of gas from anti-cancer medicines to the point that you could hook my butt up to fill a blimp and call me the Hindenburg.

Me either. 74 and just beat cancer, shoot competitive run and gun pistol matches and carry 180+ average in league bowling. Elderly is a state of mind until the body really gives out.

LOL....I am 71 and the last day of this month I turn 72. There are many things I can no longer do as well as I once did, but I refuse to just be old. My beautiful bride of almost 50 years often tells me that I see life through the eyes of a 5 year old child.

I drive a torch red Supercharged ZO6 Corvette. In the water, I run a Supercharged Yamaha WaveRunner. Kinda crazy, but I intend to take it ocean fishing.

I love playing in the dirt, so I spend many of my days on my Excavator. One year ago I bought a Wood-Mizer saw mill that I use to make logs into lumber. We built 10 very large garden boxes for vegetables out of cedar boards from trees grown on our property and turned into lumber with our mill.

Every day I thank God for my blessings and give Him praise. Each day I make my Bride laugh at least a couple times.....always have and always will.

I have several health issues I won’t list, but I have learned to ask God for a hand, trust Him and just keep moving forward.

I doubt I’ll be around here 10 years from now, but if I am, then I might think about being old, but not yet, not now.....but in my 80’s I will still look at life through the eyes of a little boy.

I’m in my 60s and I think fart jokes stink.

I am in my eighty second year and I not only laugh at fart jokes, I let a lot of farts that my family laughs at too. I don't have time to get old.
