'Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act'

as far as health goes.... yours and mine included

I turned sixty this summer.... its funny about time

Still don't feel old until my arthritis kicks in and I still am wondering what the hell happened to the USA and where the hell all the years go? Just remember, once you’re over the hill you begin to pick up speed.I read that 60 time moves 2.7 times faster than at 30 or something like that... I guess we are all time travelers.
