    I'll be a young 78, this coming July 4th, born in 1941 and I still look good!

    50 but if you're as old as you feel, 87.

    If I shave and wear a hat to conceal the gray, I can still believably pass for 40 but when you're ugly, it don't matter.

    When I turned 40, I immediately said to myself(with assistance from my body)"I'm not 39 anymore!!!!"

    I won't be 50 for a couple months yet, so you're all a bunch of old farts. :D ;)
    (Kids today... no respect :( )

    But seriously, still feel like I'm in my 30s most of the time and told that I look low 40s. So, what's to complain about. Now... where did I leave my reading glasses....

    Today I officially enter the last year of my 50s. Next March, I’ll qualify as an actual sexagenarian - a status still legal in most states.

    Can you qualify for services at your local Senior Center as a sexagenarian? I can, and it's been nice.

    Just for saying that top line,, I'm going to contact your gastroenterologist when you become 50 and make sure you get the worst tasting colonoscopy drink known to mankind. :))

    You know you are getting old when you bend over to pick something up and you say to yourself "what else can I pick up while I am down here".

    50 and still feel pretty good. I have had a rough life, so making it this far is a real blessing. Life could have turned out a lot different so 50 feels good.

    It was amazing at how smart my parents got when I moved out.

    Now THAT would be interesting....switching from that ugly stuff to aftershaves! Medical Science would have to be sure it works as a solid cleanser.

    It would probably cure cancer.

    I fully intend on getting the new at home kit they're advertising now.

    Or cause it. But, on the plus side, you could probably also degrease your grill with it.
