There's a whole lot of hate for young people going on this week. I'm sure that your previous generation was saying the same crap about you when they were your age. Circle of life you bunch of geezers!

This week? Anytime is fine with me. They're young they can take it. So leave us geezers alone. Brittle bones.

As will you when you're a crusty ol curmudgeon. Now get off my lawn.
I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

Yep. We heard "These youngsters can't even hitch up a team of horses to a wagon", "you call that music?", "Get a haircut, weirdo!", and such as that.
It's probably just envy. You know, look at those dummies, if I could still do what they can do...

I should start making sweeping generalizations about old people that are disguised as jokes, but I don't feel like picking fights right now. Maybe tomorrow, we'll see how I'm feeling depending on my arthritis and constipation.
I'm the youngest member of a church men's group at age 65. On my first meeting after my heart surgery, as we were getting ready, several of us were discussing surgeries we'd been through etc. Someone turned to Harry, who is our oldest member at 90+, and said "Harry, you're awfully quiet." Harry pushed his glasses up on his nose and said "I'm just listening to you old folks talk about your problems."
Two things stand out. It is, indeed, a matter of perspective. And, youth is, in fact, wasted on the young. I never understood that saying as a kid. Now, I know, too late. Or not, depending upon one's perspective.
I think I'll spend the next few days camping, and riding my motorcycle around middle Tennessee with my girlfriend.

I can remember a new place called McDonalds where I could get three hamburgers, fries and a coke for 99 cents.
In the 60s, my sister and I found a dime in the grocery store and the clerk gave us 2 candy bars for turning it in. I later realized that the candy bars were normally 8 cents each and on sale for a nickle each at that time.
At the bowling alley my parents went to, you could get a bottle of pop out of the machine for a dime.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
Remember when people mowed their own lawns, cleaned their own homes, and going out to eat was a special occasion?

When someone calls me a geezer, that and the age spots on my hands.

Doesn't matter... just because it was dumb on my (younger) part doesn't mean the young'ns now aren't doing dumb stuff.
