I'm fifty, I'm fifty,

Thought I'd never make it

Hey, it ain't so bad... You grew up when:

 

  • * Muscle cars ruled: 428 Cobra Jets, 427 Chevys, 426 Hemi Mopars, "She's real fine, my 409"

    * Gasoline was CHEAP. Buy ten gallons and get free Stuckey's box of peanut brittle

    * Slide rules were the thang... pocket calculators were a curiosity

    * Big bad analog power analog amplifiers with hunker tubes pushed music that could be heard for blocks. None of this wimpy digital mess.

    * There was no Madonna, Spears, Spice Girls, boy bands

    * Rock music was "bad to the bone". Ummmm, ZZ-TOP

    * Arabs didn't shove us around and hold us hostage (gasoline imports)

     

I turned 55 last September. The older I get, the more I'm having the time of my life.

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'Wow! What a ride!!!"

Those days were lots of fun. :sigh:
