7. A very old man. . .

He made people laugh, which is never a bad thing.

[LiberalArkie]

8. Hey now, 2 years younger than me.

[Journeyman]

9. Yeah, but he's dead and that's as old as you can get . . .

[Fla Dem]

11. No that was as old as he could get. But really too young. nt

[Journeyman]

13. You expect to hang around after you're dead? . . .

Probably going to need a taxidermist and a ventriloquist to pull it off, but I'm certain it can be done with panache given the proper wardrobe.

[LiberalArkie]

12. I guess so, of course I wake up some mornings and wish I hadn't woke up.

[cwydro]
