I’m 57! pardon me? The door? What about it? My coat? Thanks but… Oh! :(
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.
Actually like jack Benny always said "I'm 39"

As I turned 60 last July, I can give you the benefit of my six months of experience:
- The AARP is more aggressive than ever, and you will join.
- If you live in the state of Ohio, you will shortly receive a Golden Buckeye discount card. It will only stay in your junk pile a short time before you decide to use the damned thing.
- The note of pleading in your voice to "Please card me" when you buy alcohol will become so pathetic, they actually do so.
- Young women now think you're harmless.
- The question is now "Why aren't you retired?" rather than "When are you going to retire?".

I truly love this, gone are the days when they saw the freaky, geeky git who wants to hit on them and now it is the fat old bloke with the genial smile who is happy to talk with them (oh and they KNOW they can run, or even walk faster then him!).

Yes, that fifty-first fart is a killer!

delete this;I turned 60 in November. * AARP has kept an arms length away so far. Nor more mail than when I turned 50. However, my wife has been bombarded with Medicare supplemental insurance offers. * I also live in Ohio, but never heard of the Golden Buckeye card. (I see they stopped issuing them temporarily in Oct 2021, I'll be getting one later this year) * The last time I was carded to actually convince some one I was of age was about 36 years ago. Since then it's because they card everybody as a rule. * Women find me harmless since I was married. I often bring my wife up in early conversation (in a positive way) just so there isn't any question. * I find that conversations of retirement around me are more common. Mostly so the company isn't left in the lurch if I drop dead.
