I noticed that when I run to catch up with someone, I’m not moving much faster that when I was walking fast
Every time I hear the opening lines to Steppenwolf Magic Carpet Ride I envision him sitting in front of a pair of Klipsch corner horns “I like to dream/ Yes-yes, right between my sound machine” "The lyrics were about how great my new stereo sounded."
I remember being the remote and only having three channels. Every time dad wanted the channel changed I would have to get up and change it!
Yup, we had channels 3, 8, and 30. Neighbors had a color TV. I never saw it on, but the thing had to have been 4’ deep.
Felt that getting older thing at the track today. Slow and weak , felt like I put on 20 pounds since the last time I weighed myself (January), and turns out I lost 10 pounds.
I remember when this was my 65" tv
And now it’s this
First sign: Reading glasses.
Second sign: Where the heck did I leave my reading glasses???
… back when size was proportionate to hearing loss!
… and that 65 inch TV lived in the basement … everyone knew you owned it and never returned your calls when you asked for help to put it out at the curb
You reminded me that I would go into a gas station and say: Put in 50 cents of gas, check the oil and wash the windshield.
Lol!! That’s spot on.
I had a 52" version that weighed 350 pounds! I got lucky and some poor guy paid me $50 to let him load it up and take it home. It reminds me of the 2 best days of boat ownership
I had something to contribute here regarding the signs that I am getting older … but now I forget what it was.
I’m sure something will come back to me. Oh well.
Stay safe out there.
Try to think harder and recall this “something” right now … it’s not gonna be better
Wait… what is this about?
I watched Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation on television and now that was almost 70 years ago…she is getting old…
I’ve given up voicing my opinion on the Hornady/covid thread.
I must be getting older…and wiser
17 posts while I was out walking…sheesh.
No one I know remembers Kukla, Fran, and Ollie. I guess that means I’m old.
Had to look that one up …think I watched a few episodes, but lived it for 10 years
