    Happy Birthday Terry. Getting older is not for sissies If you think if it tough being in your 60's and being male try being female.

    The bright side, you can still date women at least 10 yrs younger and maybe more. You look distinguished as you get older, women just look older. ( check out how much "work" Barbara Walters has had done just to stay contemporary!

    No man would go to that much trouble.

    and BTW, you look great at 65!! you have only just begun.

    " No man would go to that much trouble."

    Except for Bruce Jenner and George Hamilton, not that it really did any good other than making them look like freaks.

    I am trying to adjust to getting older, or as Erma Bombeck used to say, the next phase of her wonderfulness. I am now at the stage that I am trying to help my kids and grandkids. I want to teach them what I know, and hope they pass it on down.

    Terry, this is one of my favorite songs. I like the message, "... teach them what you know and pass it on down...." "... sometimes you gotta stand back and watch them burn it to the ground... man you gotta face it, it's a young man's town.."

    Here is Vince Gill and his beautiful daughter. I put this up once for Farkel

    I see what you mean I just turned 21 and I feel so old but yet I see that with each year that passes I get only wiser so in reality it is not a bad thing to grow old.
