I used to listen to this group back in the day (1970). Whenever someone talks about how old we (they) are, I think of this group!

Yeah Richard, but that age puts you squarely in the "Old Fart" category. Welcome aboard, my friend!

But I've had a few years to think it over.

I can't help but laugh every time I read a statement like that.

60

I've been on boards where most members are in their 70s and 80s.

Get a calculator and try this ...

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate/sex (more than once but less than 10) :)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1759...
If you haven't, add 1758.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number

The first digit of this was your original number
(I.e.., how many times you want to have chocolate/sex each week). ha ha ha

The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!)

Nice one...someone forwarded me.

Yeah David, and you just celebrated a birthday, if I recall correctly. Which means... You are rapidly approaching "fart dust" status yourself.

Yes I am and it is under control so no worries, it just has taken its toll on me with years of neglect on my part of being ignorant to the environment I was exposed to in the past.

I am doing fine and I plan on a long life.
