At a nursing home in Florida, a group of senior citizens were sitting around talking about their aches and pains.

"My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.

"I know what you mean. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee," replied another.

"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a third.

"My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another contributed.

"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man.

Then there was a short moment of silence.

"Thank God we can all still drive," said one woman cheerfully.

Ironically enough though, teens still kill more on the roads than blind old people.

Thanx! Good to be home. Had a good time, but it's always nice to get back home.

Not slacking, just busy, but it'll be back to normal next week, I promise.


See there 97, you stir the pot then hand me the spoon and these nice people know what's going on.
 
Ya see !!!!! Just because we are older doesn't mean we are dead.
I gotta tell ya'll a funny story that actually happened.

Several weeks ago my across-the-street-neighbor asked me if I would join him and his brother at the amusement go-kart track in Raleigh. Never being one to shirk a chance to kick-azz in a go-kart, this 66 year old said YELL-HESS to the 30 year olds.

The karts were identified by sponsors from the WCS so the kids jumped in the car sponsoring thier favorite driver and us older guys took what was available.
We were on the little road course with some other people and a few youngsters and there was this one lad who was having a ball, being competitive and doing his share of bumpin and bangin, taking and giving out.
Since we bought several rounds on the track, we eventually figured which karts were fast and which were dogs and went after each other with a vengence, the youngster as well.

After the time was over and we were walking away, I walked over to the lads mother and told her how much her son enjoyed the "contest" and how he held his own against the old timers.
The kids mother was about thirty-five and she inquired, with a look of devilment in her eye, "would you have had more fun if you had the product on the kart my son was driving?"

Guess what, her son was driving the Viagra car.

Now I wasn't sure how to take her comment nor what to say, (can you imagine the ole Whizzer at a loss for words?) so I sorta smiled and made some comment, I'm not sure what it was now, but the jist of it in a politically correct version went, "I was okay without it". She laughed so loud my across-the-street-neighbor walked over to see what was going on and when I told him, in front of her, she laughed again.

True story !!!! Honest limey !!!
 
And, no matter what anybody says, you are never too old to have fun! I bet that was a blast Whizzer! :D

Have fun ????? You betcha. Our daughter and her husband joined a swim club as she and our grandsons are water rats. She invited her Mother and I to go with them one afternoon, and ole Pop-Pop spent his time going down the water slide with grandson #1, Andrew. Andrew is seven. I gotta mention I was the only senior citizen doing the water slide thing. Pushing kids out of the way so I can go down again.
I think some of the senior citizen onlookers wanted to do it too, but were afraid someone might think them an "old fool". Well, go ahead, call me an old fool, but don't be standing at the bottom of the water slide telling me 'cause ya can't stop on the way down. :D

I have enjoyed life and although I do get too serious about some things, find acting young keeps me young.

As the tail end to my philosophy, I figure if I die tomorrow, I've had one helluva good life. A few regrets, but nothing serious.

So to all who read this, thanks for letting me enjoy part of my life with you!!!!!!!!!! Yea, you too boB !!!! And if you and the good Lord let me, I'll stick around awhile longer. :cheers:

KEN a/k/a Whizzer
 
I hope when I'm in my sixties I am as active as you Whiz. Sounds like you have had a great life so far. :cheers:

Agree 100%, bowtie! And, Whiz, I have always been told you are only as old as you let yourself be! (Sometimes the body has other ideas, but, well, you know.) And another thing, Whiz, you are more than welcome to stick around here as long as you like! We definitely enjoy your stories about your experiences, and most especially the ones about you and your bride! May God bless you with many more years! :cheers:
