Off Topic How old are the folks on the Porch?

[LastRodeo]

Thank you to all!

 

[r8shell]

This is the oldest I've ever been.

 

[TedderX]

You guys are antiques.

 

[Railsplitter]

I'm 55. No Porsche here either but my uncle owns a Red Barchetta.

I just realized that I had 2 of my knives before most of you were born . I bought the First one in 1957 when I was 17 .

I'm only 16!

I am 36, which has felt like a real change. I am now on the second half of the Biblical three-score-and-ten, and I am no longer in the target marketing demographic. I didn't expect 36 to feel like a big deal, but it really has.

Fortunately life is good. I have a wonderful daughter and my son was just born one week ago today. And my wife is amazing and even tolerant of my knife habit

 

[totkst1]

I am 34 til August!

 

[glennbad]

I will hit the half-century mark this year...

 

[Dr-Mabuse]

Tomorrow is my birthday also. 47 for me.

Happy early birthday to you!

 

[tmd_87]

Will be 30 in July...

 

[Vinifera]

Hard to tell because it depends on how many bother to respond.

 

[GE Jr]

Happy birthday to all you young'uns!

68 for me as of last January.

 

[Ice Tigre]

it all goes downhill in your 30s

I can personally attest to that!

Lately I have a saying, "I'm getting too old to get any older!" Which is an evolution of what I used to say, "I'm getting too old for this stuff!"

A buddy of mine, who is just into his 50s either gets very amused, or looks like he wants to throttle me when I say such things... I'll be 32 in a touch less than a month.

But I'm a firm believer, just like Indy, "it's not the years, it's the miles!"

It's all a bit odd to me really... things I did in my teens and 20s, I used to say I'd never live to be 30... lo and behold it happened. What the heck do I do now? Lol

 

[Coldwaters]

35 years old, but just started livin!

 

[AShearer]

29 for 6 1/2 more hours.

Happy Birthday Dr-Mabuse Oh, to be 29 again

 

[Wilsonhome]

I'll be 48 in July.

 

[AShearer]

Thanks guys! I can't speak from experience but so far things just keep getting better as I get older.

They do! As long as you relish every moment and don't think "what if"

 

[AShearer]

I have no issues with my age. I'm 64. I read once that we all have an age where we forever imagine or "see" ourselves thereafter. I see myself at 30 around the time my daughter ("Primary Issue" as my son says. He refers to himself as The Chief's "Final Issue")

My memories over the years revolve around my family and our lives together. Now that I am retired (early, I admit) and my kids are grown, my grandchildren fill my life. Still, this place is respite for me from all the noise and conflagration we still have to deal with, daily.

 

[The Fort]

I'll be 52 in August.
