Ashes to ashes and dust to dust... I'm dust!

Yeah, old Hal didn't stand a chance..he was pretty tuckered out when he arrived at Hastings, having just whipped some Vikings at Stanford Bridge..then hustle his army south quite a few kilos just take on Willie...

I wonder if he ever knew what hit him?

Dang young whippersnappers. I'm two days older than dirt, that's what I tell everyone.

I'm a youngster I suppose as mine shows up as N/A. You very advanced geezers have fun with your walkers and wheelchairs.

DEACONLLB · « **Reply #12 on:** May 02, 2021, 10:43:59 AM »

I try to stay clear of walkers and wheel chairs I will be in one or 6 ft under before long no use rushing it

Maybe your birthday was so long ago, it was before they kept records.

I was born when rocks were still soft.

wtxbadger · « **Reply #15 on:** May 02, 2021, 11:48:02 AM »

My kids and grandkids swear I'm older than dirt so being only 1017 years old means I can proudly proclaim the creation of dirt precedes me by at least a few years based on my profile here.

Graybeard · « **Reply #16 on:** May 02, 2021, 12:27:24 PM »

Yew guys do know ya can change your profile to reflect actual date of birth if ya wanna right? I tend not to do that as it's just one more piece of info those scammers and identity thieves can easily grab if ya do. I used to but no longer.

Dee · « **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2021, 12:39:44 PM »

Yep! I put as little personal info out there as possible.

oldandslow · « **Reply #18 on:** May 03, 2021, 08:54:13 AM »

I don't really car that people know I'm old. I'm kinda proud that I have managed to reach this age. I quit hunting when the dinosaurs went extinct. Soft, flabby mammals were no fun.

Graybeard · « **Reply #19 on:** May 03, 2021, 10:41:51 AM »

I keep telling my youngest grandson about my dinosaur hunts and for some reason he thinks I'm pulling his leg.

Mule 11 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 03, 2021, 10:50:08 AM »

My Grandfather told me many stories and some I still remember... His tales taught me how to get started hunting deer and for that I’m truly grateful. I was thinking I wish some of these guys were still around just yesterday.

Mule 11 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 03, 2021, 11:11:22 AM »

I was at my Grandfathers and told him how the neighbor boy made a deal with me, you clean the catfish and I’ll clean the rest. (What a bargain I’m thinking)? He tells me. You go help that boy clean them fish. Yes sir. Sometimes ya just should not tell Grandpa all of your conquests...

As a old friend and fishing buddy used to say, surely you jest. He was a navy vet from WW2 and was assigned to the old flying boat division.

Pshaw ! You guys all talking about your advanced age! Let's face it, the Democ-rats have it all over us..

When it comes time to vote, they have thousands show up, who died 30-50 maybe 80 years ago !

Hey! I'm looking for senior discounts!

DEACONLLB · « **Reply #26 on:** May 09, 2021, 05:33:45 AM »

They used to give senior discounts but when most of their customers were over 65 they stopped I have not had one in years. Sometimes I ask but it is such a problem now have to call the manager and redo the bill I just don't ask

Goldie · « **Reply #27 on:** May 09, 2021, 05:37:43 AM »

That's why I ask before I order, not after.

moamonkey · « **Reply #28 on:** May 10, 2021, 05:59:03 AM »

My wife used to hate being offered a senior discount when she came to the age. I say, you paid your dues, might as well take all they'll give. It's not like you're asking, they're offering.
