42. Ha!

I'm 66 and in 3 days will celebrate being with the same woman for exactly two thirds of our lives (we met on July 25th, 1974, when we were both 22, and that was in Berlin--a little far from DC). I have to beg for a little leniency here. I am WAY out of practice.

My brother still lives in DC, and of course, we go into town to meet with friends when I'm there. Helen Thomas is no longer around, but when she was, my brother and I always met with her at her favorite restaurant, and even there, it was always crowded with 20 somethings and 30 somethings.

As for rectifying my lack of experience with the DC bar scene, even if my wife were to ditch me tomorrow, I fear I'm a little old to go bar hopping, and who would want a 66 year old nerd (I don't even drink alcohol!) like me anyway? I think I'd add a whole new dimension to the expression "strike-out."

I'm afraid any glimpses into that world will have to come from younger eyes, sorry!
