    Default How to know you are old

    Conversation with a special needs person I am guardian for..

    Him....My Drivers License expires soon.. Why do we need drivers licenses Al?

    Al.....Because it proves you are old enough to Drive and passed a test.

    Him....Did they have Drivers Licenses in the old days?

    Al.... What do you mean, old days?

    Him.. When you started Driving?.

    This was a serious conversation on his part...so I just chuckled a bit and said.

    Al... Nope....we had horses , no licence needed Bud..but we also didn't need to parallel park.

    Alcohol takes care of looking old, every time my wife and I go on a cruise I always remind her that the more she drinks the better I look. LOL

    Check your height and compare it to your height at 25. The older you get the shorter you become.

    I often wonder why all my friends and family are looking so old.

    I think we all wonder that.Obviously we haven't aged at all. You run into someone that looks old and are shocked by how much he aged. You think its weird because when you look in the Mirror you look pretty darn good..He gets home and tell his Spouse , "ran in to Bob smith today... my god he looks bad! really put on the pounds and just looks terrible."

    You know you are old when you are watching an episode of The Amazing Race set in Puerto Vallarta and a clue reads 'Head for Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's getaway house on Calle Zaragoza"" and the 30s-something contestant says, "Who are they?"
