Saw this phrase on the corvette thread below. I turn 40 tomorrow. I have no intention of buying a sports car tho ( heck, I just bought a prius ). I'm clinging to my youth by going to rock festivals, buying expensive guitars and playing them whenever I get a chance.

With you there Christian - I turn 40 at the end of March, but I'm the original Peter Pan so I'll never grow up :-D Not much call for developers in Neverland though :confused:

LOL - yes, I often note that when people talk about my youth, they are probably talking about my kids nowadays.

I would love to hit the ton ( live to 100 ) but I'm not sure how realistic that is.

Hah. I turn
0x30this summer. I had a sports car for a while, until I totalled it out. I'll get another one someday. At the moment, I've got a kid about to enter college, and that sorts your financial realities. I cling to my youth by making my body do all the things it should have done when it was younger: mainly running, biking, and lifting weights. And when it complains, I tell it to STFU and soldier.Software Zen:

Hey! Growing old is not so bad, if you consider the alternative. Happy Birthday for tomorrow, Christian. You should adopt as your motto: "I plan to live forever. So far, so good."

See, I don't live in the US, so I don't have to worry about that :-)

I bought a swim spa and am trying to get back in to swimming, but it's a tough road.

I used to think that way. Once you get a little older and start to notice how your body starts wearing out, you'll feel less immortal.

Swimming is probably an ideal form of exercise for middle-aged types. No impact, moderately aerobic, and if you pick the right pool and the right time of day, 'entertaining' (wink-wink, nudge-nudge).

Who wants to live to 200? By that age, you'll not get dates, you'll look like a date.

I'm 38 next month and can't wait to see what form my mid-life crisis will take. Hope it's a fast car, motorbike or young blonde and not train sets, leather trousers or cosmetic surgery.
ROTFL - I used to tell my wife I'd swap her at 38 for two 19 year olds. Now, I can't think of anything worse.

Mid-life crisis. Isn't that a second childhood? I'd have to come out of my first childhood before I even considered a second one.
