I don't think of people by their age, I think of them by how they act. What I mean is, if an elderly man, say in his late 50's or early 60's, was out playing football with alot of younger kids, I wouldn't think that he was old, just a guy out having the time of his life. I truly believe in that saying, "You are as young as you feel!" Some days, I feel about 18 and other days, it is like I am walking hand in hand with Father Time.

To be honest, age is just a state of mind. I would have to say to anyone who was just 4 and half years younger than myself and thought *I* was an old gezzer, "SO WHAT!" *LOL*

Good point! Of course, it's possible to go too far in either direction. You have 20 year olds that act like they're 60, with no interests or hobbies, and 35 year olds that act like they're 6, and never grow up or accept responibility for their actions. It's always someone else's fault (but gee, the other guys wanted to stop and have 12 beers so I went along. It's not my fault).
