Countdown…
Life April 3rd, 2005 |…one month ‘till my birthday. May 3rd, I hit 32.
And before you make any cracks, it would do you good to realize that with a little practice, it’s amazing how fast us old fogeys can scoot along in our walkers, and canes just give us an extra couple feet of reach when whuppin’ you young whippersnappers.
Oh, and as long as I’m being amusingly un-subtle, here’s my Amazon wishlist. Just in case. 
“Phorever People (Tee’s Flying Dub)” by Shamen, The from the album Phorever People (1992, 8:41).

Old fogey? At 32? At 32 I was still racing cars and having gratuitous sex with multiple anonymous partners on a daily basis, and doing my best to keep the Columbian drug lords in business. Ah the frivolity of youth!
Just wait till some young neer-do-well calls you gramps. Or some one asks you, how many grand children do you have? And I couldn’t begin to express the joy of finding out the music of your generation is now played on the “Oldies station”
You can come cry on my shoulder about “getting old” when you reach 52. Till then you’re nothing but a young punk! Now if you’ll excuse me its time for my metamucile, lack of fiber makes me cranky! (wanders of muttering, damn kids these days…)
