I think I have moved up to third position. However I can't tell if that means I'm wining or losing. The sad truth about growing old is you have 2 choices. Six feet over or under. I choose six feet over. However we really have no choice in the matter.

I use to pay attention to age but now since I'm middle aged it does not bother me. My parents were always correct when they told me wisdom comes with maturity. I never believed that when I was 20

Age has been playing games with me lately. Turned 35 just over a month ago. Since then I've been carded twice when buying a drink and yet when I've filled out surveys the catagories are often separated by 25-34 and 35-50 or something like that. I hated filling out the surveys where I'm in this catagory that goes 35-65 or something like that. I'm not old enough to retire yet, not even close but my age is lumped in with retirees. Then there's the college thing that I'm trying to do. I'm considered Late Student or Older Student - I hate that - OLDER, it kindof counts me in with anyone my age or older. I'm not half way to through the average American life span but yet I'm almost considered half way to obsolete.

Then there's the little boy at school... the 10 yr old, who proposed to me yesterday. Yeah, I think he was trying to butter me up but it still felt good. lol

Demographics different then I was thinking making this very interesting. I will be in my bracket awhile. So in my case the next age survey should be in at least 5 years? what do you think?

I feel that physical age is irrelovent (sp?). Mental age should guide your path thru life.

Hmm.... If that is true, then we would have a LOT of people acting like underage kids around here (or at least more then there are now) . I do think that If mental age is a guide I wouldn't be old enough for this board most days . On the other hand, I think that the Internet proves that most people have a mental age of children .

At dinner during Mother's Day, my brother noticed that my hair lined is running from my eyebrows, and remembered that I turned 30 this year.

He said I look more like an uncle than a brother

It definitely isn't How Old Do Others Think You Are...cause that would be very very different answer for me.
