A TRIBUTE TO AGE
Gardian Grandfolks from OH FOR HEAVENS SAKE
FOR MERV AND PAM
As most of my friends know, I will be visiting this marvelous couple in New Zealand the end of October, 1999. The three of us have been conversing via icq for about 5 months now. There is a bit of friendly verbal rivalry constantly flying back and forth on a daily basis. Merv started it with this first piece and I followed with the second. They represent two different views on the same subject. LOL Merv's was sent in the form of teasing, mine in retaliation!
UPDATE: Read about my trip in the New Zealand pages!
FULL CIRCLE
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we�re kids? If you are less than 10 years old, you�re so excited about aging that you think in fractions. How old are you? �. "I�m four and a half going on five!
That�s the key. You get into your teens, now they can�t hold you back! You jump to the next number. How old are you? "I�m gonna be 16." You could be 12, but you�re gonna be 16.
And then the greatest day of your life happens�you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony�you BECOME 21�YES!!!
But then you turn 30�oooohhh what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED, we had to throw him out. There�s no fun now. What�s wrong?? What changed?? You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you�re PUSHING 40�stay over there, it�s all slipping away!
You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you�re PUSHING 40, you REACH 50�.and your dreams are gone. Then you make it to 60�.you didn�t think you�d make it!!!
So!!! You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you�re PUSHING 40, you REACH 50, you MAKE IT to 60�.then you build up so much speed you HIT 70!
After that, it�s a day by day thing. After that you HIT Wednesday. You GET INTO your 80�s, you HIT lunch! It TURNS 4:30; my grandmother won�t even buy green bananas�its an investment you know and maybe a bad one!
And it doesn�t end there!!! Into the 90�s you start going backwards�I was just 92. Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again�."I�m a hundred and a half!!!"
THE GOLDEN YEARS�.
{Home}{WHEN THE SOUL CRIES}{WHEN THE SOUL SINGS}{Me}
The Golden Years are here at last;
I cannot see, I cannot pee;
I cannot chew, I cannot screw;
My memory shrinks, my hearing stinks;
No sense of smell, I look like hell;
The Golden Years have come at last;
The Golden Years can kiss my ass!
Like the old folk?
There are more available but my space is limited.
