Default Re: Growing Old

You know you're getting old when you start calling young people juvenile and irresponsible. Blame the youth for all that is wrong with society. When they are doing exactly the same things you use to do.

I never bought a stupid bloody flat-brimmed baseball cap for $50 and wore it on an angle. I got given baseball caps by businesses for free, usually when I bought something I needed, and I only wore it to keep the sun off my face when I was outside.

I'm confident you did something equally stupid, that your elders didn't approve of and society didn't crumble as a result.

I have a cupboard full of sample hats like you mentioned, approximately 35 caps. Now that I'm balding they come in handy.

Ever heard the saying your only as old as the one your feeling .......start feeling son, you'll get a new lease on life !!

In other words, maybe time for a trade up ?
