is it how old you are or how old you feel? When I am sitting by a lake with a fire going, under the stars I feel well below the average age. Wish that was actually the case.

Talking Older than a fine Whine!

Old enough to know better,
Too old to care.
You know this age thing, is great.
The older I get, the better life gets

Well, I wouldn't have added a smile if it had been north of the average... In reality, it's only a decade and a half now that I think about it.

...not that north of the average is bad...but I still got me a lot of living and things to do and learn yet....it's great to not know it all!

And welcome to the forum!
Well, just, damn. You know, no matter how hard I try in life, I can't be anything other than average. I've got three kids, one cat and a dog (actually, she just died a month ago). I drive a pickup, my wife drives a mini-van. We go to church every Sunday, Scouts on Tuesday. We have a small, four bedroom house. Got a college degree (useless). I sit in rush hour traffic two hours every day. I think that Jeff Foxworthy is great American. I think Pope John Paul the great is one of the most wonderful human beings that ever lived. We Bar-b-q at least twice a month (usually more). A big thrill for me is tickets to a Braves game. Can somebody just shoot me? I got to go to bed now and get my 6.5 hours of sleep so I can get up in the morning and drink my 2.5 cups of coffee and sit in rush hour traffic for an hour.

Oh, and by the way, I'm 48.5 years old. Go figure.

Another measuring statistic, just what men need...

I'm just going to have to get used to being above average!

Just slightly above average here too. Although no one I work with seems to think so. Funny, I was below average when the poll was done. Making some kind of progress.

I bought my first Airstream when I was 16. That was 22 years ago. I have not looked back since.
Since the purchase 22 years ago, I have owned a grand total of 4 Argosys.
I fix them up and people want them. I never get to keep one too long after I am done restoring it.
Right now I have two Argosys. My brother has his eye on one of them. I am hoping I can keep one longer than four or five years now.
I happen to be 38.
