I see people my age mountain climbing in Europe this summer. I feel good just getting my leg through my underwear without losing my balance.

Linda Marks (Bird)

Thank you Greg. I needed a laugh!

You're welcome Linda, I think we all need a good laugh (or at least a chuckle) now and then. (boomer selfie)

Thanks Pegi I'm trying to keep up the interest for this site but I could use some help.

That said:

Great Truths About Growing Old
1) Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
2) Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you're down there.
4) You're getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.
5) It's frustrating when you know all the answers but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.
6) Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.
7) Wisdom comes with age, but sometimes age comes alone.

If you eat a bowl of iec cream every day for 90 years, you will live to be old.

Very good, Gordon and at that age who cares how much I would weigh?

I couldn't resist sharing this. It's not often a Savanna Alumni becomes a social media sensation, but Al Hrabosky did us all proud.

If you didn't know Al (his brother I think was a '63 or '64 graduate) was a professional baseball player and is now the analyst for one of his former teams the St Louis Cardinals.

Al Hrabosky wants to make a Ron Burgundy reference. However, Hrabosky dropped the name of a famous porn star Ron Jeremy, which led to a great reaction from Hrabosky's on-air partner.

Here's the link: https://twitter.com/awfulannouncing/status/1551323793733271552?s=20&t=yTGrFoBXCiaZN96dpAYrXw

As they say Twitter is blowing up over this one

Way to go Al!

The senior version of "head, shoulders, knees and toes" is "wallet, glasses, keys and phone."

I remember my Mother handing my Father his lunchbox as he went out the front door and reciting "cigarettes, matches, handkerchief, money".  Later on she added "pen, pencil".   Greg, I always enjoy your posts!  Keep them coming.

Thanks Diane, I have good writers

They say that you're only as old as you feel. Of course, then something like this shows up. Time to check the will Alice!

I took my wife out to a very expensive meal in Scottsdale last night.
She kept insisting that she wanted to pay for the meal but I told her "don't be stupid we're halfway down the street, just keep on running

Greg,

Your Poo joke sent a group of pre-teens,and my wife, into gales of laughter. Good one!

Greg Cook

As the generation that was in their 20s during the 70s and are now in their 70s in the 20s, I don't think these words could have completely different meanings over the course of 50 years.

We wouldn't be doing our ages justice if we didn't complain about how younger generations are dealing with the same problems we did way back when.

Wait for the phone to ring for the voice mail. This is the wished-for answering-machine message for Pacific Palisades, CA high school, and also attributed to the Maroochydore High School in Queensland, Australia. Snopes said it is neither, but it would be good if someone had the guts…

I and my wife, Bobbi, have been working on acoustic guitar fingerstyle duets of pop songs from back in the day. We recently recorded video of our duet of "My Girl". The song was written by Smoky Robinson and recorded by the The Temptations in 1964. It has a simple, but highly memorable bass riff that is used as the intro.  (I have also posted this to my profile page)
