I have three to share:
1. God put me on earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I am so far behind, I will live forever!
2. Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
3. I finally got my head together, and my body fell apart.

I think I'll wait for it to happen before I worry about it. I'm 62 now so it will be a while.
I don't mind the idea of getting old, but I don't want to be sick or senile. A lady my wife looked after was 105 and she said the saddest thing about her age was that all her friends were dead.
So just keep doing what you like until you drop. Best way to go.

Those are some good thoughts. I always thought Phyllis Diller was so funny, but she was usually right on target.
My favorite thought on aging is 'you'll never be any younger than you are right now, so whatever it is, go for it'!

Aging? Do we really HAVE to? I dont wanna ! whining, its so unfair, just when you get smarter you're looking at the end of the trail - well sort of -- I think aging should be postponed until they have a super duper resurfacing laser (sp?) for home use and snap on replacement parts, joints etc

I love the quote, Phoenix. It's from my all-time favorite writer, Max Ehrmann.
My thoughts on aging is that it's wonderful. I wouldn't go back again for all the tea in China.

A young bull and an Old bull in a field, in the next pasture a herd of cows; the young bull says to the old bull"lets dash down there and have sex with a couple of those cows!" "No", said the old Bull "lets stroll down and have sex with them all".

Simple, as the song says:
"Go on, take the money, and run"
('cause it's probably the only way we'll get to do anything in this life)
