@Aquarius,  I don't know what's worse, you thinking you are still in your 20s or me not remembering my 20s.

🙄🙄🙄🙄

@sean92008, LOL! I don't actually feel  like I'm in my 20's, I'm glad I've had the life experiences I've had. I just am not willing to recognize this much passage of time.

Denial works really well sometimes!  ;D

I don't where the time has gone.  Memory is a cruel mistress.
Eh, nevermind...

I liked DS9. All except the alternate universe episodes. But I feel the same way about Voyager and TNG. The alternate universe and the holodeck episodes were just ways for the writers to be lazy and not have to follow the story arc. I guess that is why I think Enterprise is my favorite.
Are we having fun yet?

I don't where the time has gone...
Glad I'm not the only one that feels it.  Something changed hard at 50.  Up to then, I could relate to young people until I was almost 50.  But now there is a huge generation gap.

And it seems like yesterday I learned a childhood friend was getting her master's in psychology.  She just retired after 25 years working for the prison system.  I didn't even know.  I still think of her as a graduate student.  OMG.

I'm a great-aunt now. 

In my 40s, people didn't notice me because I reminded them of their parents, or who has use for a matron anyway.  But if you think that's bad, 50 is even worse because not only do they have no use for me, but I'm also in their way.  They actually aim to physically push past me, and sometimes there are collisions when walking, even though I look in the direction I'm going so everyone knows which way I'm headed.  But they have no time for analyzing body language.  They just bowl you over.  I hope I never did that when I was young.

I need to move to a retirement community ASAP.  Aging would be so much easier to handle without kids slamming into me.  Maybe I would be one of the young ones.  I hear Scottsdale is nice...

I turn 73 in December, work 3 days a week in the state headquarters for two veterans organizations that help our vets and service connected disabled vets get the benefits they are entitled to and earned by their service, webmaster two sites, am editor and creator of 3 state newsletters/newspapers, travel for the VSOs I work for, and then take care of home and family, plus enjoy our college and pro football teams and make a couple or more fun week long trips to Orlando, Texas, and such.

My list of health problems rival Falkie and I may have to do some things slower, but I’ve never had to worry about younger ones or middle aged folks running me over. And at my age, we’ve earned the right to say what we want and to hell with those who think otherwise.

Why am I relating all of this? Because it all comes down to our attitude about what we want our lives to be and not accepting less. 50’s are a great age to be...embrace the time, utilize it to the fullest. It is all in your hands. To me, 50 year olds are still kids (or anyone under 65)...so, kiddies, you still got a lot of life left to live. Go for it.

Ric Ocasek is older than guys who were on the scene 15 years before him.  I know the Cars were a long time cover band but....

Bob Dylan (78 years old); Paul McCartney (77); Paul Simon (77) and Art Garfunkel (77); Carole King (77); Brian Wilson (77); Mick Jagger (76) and Keith Richards (75); Joni Mitchell (75); Jimmy Page (75) and Robert Plant (71); Ray Davies (75); Roger Daltrey (75) and Pete Townshend (74); Roger Waters (75) and David Gilmour (73); Rod Stewart (74); Eric Clapton (74); Debbie Harry (74); Neil Young (73); Van Morrison (73); Bryan Ferry (73); Elton John (72); Don Henley (72); James Taylor (71); Jackson Browne (70); Billy Joel (70); and Bruce Springsteen (69, but turning 70 next month).

From an article:

I can't believe the article writers left out the original 'Bad Girl' of Rock-N-Roll: Suzy Quotro

It may be that your sole purpose in life, is to serve as a warning to others.   :o

Okay, I'm going Google free...  Was her big hit "Lipstick?"

I bet if I went to YouTube there's probably a video but this is a test to see if my brain is still working...
