Here’s what I’ve learned…Marathon sex is not worth the amberlamps ride and shock to the chest. Keep it to 5 minutes of quality poundtown and survive to poke another day.

 

[DILLIGAF]

I agree...but I am barely able to make it 3 min?

I though 5 min was marathon sex.

For old guys with daughters (and the wife), the most common thing you say around the house is "Why didn't anyone tell me?"

 

[Chili Palmer]

The older I get the more I can relate to this song:

 

[TPC]

Wife's friend: "Whats it like being married to an old guy compared to younger?"

Wife's response : "He buys me nicer cars"

 

[Uncle Dave]

I know too much at 58. Sadly.

Last week I told my (hot asian/awkward) Dr. that Id recently begun dating a gorgeous 25 year old and I "ahem" needed a little blue pill help to keep up.

She said no problem Dave, the only thing is that at your age, you need to know that this could be fatal.

I reluctantly palmed scrip and told her I understand, If she dies, she dies.

… I went out and checked my mail about an hour ago… All there was was the letter from the… funeral consumers alliance… or something… Inviting me to a board meeting… some shit like that… When they know you’re on a teeter totter, you get general funeral/cremation mail I guess

just dug it out of the trash… It was actually addressed to my mother who if she were still alive would be 110 now… you got me???

14 year old granddaughters open your dresser drawer
Take your favorite T shirts, read that favorite.
Wear them for PJ's.
You never see the shirts again.

- Getting old sneaks up on ya.
-Decisions you made about playing football, riding dirt bikes, lying on concrete working on cars, lifting stuff ya should have got help for, they all come back to remind you what you was, and what you ain't no more.
For us cop types our tolerance for idiots becomes almost non existent. I used up all my idiot skills at work.
-I absolutely, positively, hate talking on the phone. Another side effect of the job.
-Pain...the real kind...becomes a constant companion. I honestly cannot remember the last time my back did not hurt, it is now just a matter or degree. It idles at about a 5, and spikes to a 8-9 when it wants to get my attention. Like today.
I figured this am I'd mow the east driveway area, (about 1/2 acre_) weed eat the edge areas, and then change all the fluids in my Rzr.
I got the yard work done and managed to pull the drain plug on the RZR engine oil.
Then, I used the RZR to help get me up off of the lawn chair cushions I was laying on, slid the shop door closed...and called it a day.
Figure on your productivity level being about half of what ya think it should be. And you won't be happy about it.

Bottom line, we all have to keep moving... Get up everyday and be productive whatever it may be

Sitting at Starbucks now.
A week ago at this time paralyzed with a clot busting shot injected in my arm.

$80.000 off new Winnebagos, planning another lap around the USA.

When you're an old guy, your hospital bandages come with DMV like 3 page registration papers filled out in hand by the Doctor.
Sounds nuts, but true.
Special bandages that hold you together.
I'll try and post a pic.

I do things that were a minor effort years ago, and now the same just about wrecks my ass.

I'm thinking about spraying for chiggers this afternoon, and like everything that requires physical effort, there's consideration for the benefit of doing it versus the pain the next day.

… You know your old… When your housekeeping chores used to be done by yourself… Today three Hispanic ladies came marching in the house with about six buckets full of cleaning supplies… Mops brooms, etc…. I let it be known to them that if they needed anything… I would be hiding in the 26 foot trailer. in my driveway…. Last time they did my house they did a spectacular job… I hope I get the same results this time… @NEIGHBOR GIRL told me she will go over and inspect when they are done…

I have become an expert on which denture adhesive works best and the best pattern to use on the upper vs the lower plate.

 

[Dettom]

I just turned 70. Wife is sending me on a guided elk hunt this fall. I'm pretty lucky for a lot of reasons, mobility being a big one. Winning the wife lottery being another one.

Being old is like having a daily hang over. IF you make past the morning, the day usually improves.

 

[2Driver]

When the doctor says, “that behavior will have long term health effects” you say, how does that pertain to me?

I took one once without water and it got stuck in my throat. I had a stiff neck for a week!

So he’s talking about life extension therapy?

 

[cofooter]

You would hope, but exactly the opposite. You know you're getting old when the doctor is OK with just letting it ride...........

How is your vision doing?

 

[Rajobigguy]

How is your vision doing?

Still getting stabbed in the left eye every 6 weeks but the Doc says that the wet AMD is improving and we might be able to start spacing that out a little further and eventually stop that therapy all together. Unfortunately he says the shadows and night blindness are not likely to improve, it just won’t get any worse.
Thanks for asking!
