I first realized that I was getting old when I was flirting with one
attractive receptionist at a clients office and he ask how old I was.
Now she was in her early twenties and had just turned 40. I told her
my age and her eyes got real wide and she exclaimed: "Wow, you are the
same age as my daddy"!


And what's wrong with that?


That was TWENTY Years ago that's what is wrong with it!

Hey, I resemble that remark... For me one of the signs of being over
the hill was going to the motorcycle dealership and asking for a part
for my XS11 and the guy behind the counter asks "what's an XS11.)

Or when someone asks if Paul Mcartney was in a group back in the 1960s.

I once told this sweet young thing at a party that I felt like out of
place like the Steely Dan song Hey 19. She asked who's Steely Dan...
Needless to say it wasn't an enjoyable evening.

Now that is a legitimate complaint! :-))

Of course you can look at is as she is no longer half your age?
