I know I'm pretty young compared to most of you gents, but I realized I was getting older when I started to flop instead of bounce.
It hurts so much more when I hit the ground these days.
I know when mr beard gets GRAYER every time i trim it.
How about you???

At my age "old" is right out. "Older" is much better.
Remember the famous Satchel Page quote "how old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?"
When everyone addresses you as "Sir" ya know ya made it! Example.....
I went to the local gin mill one evening for a couple brews. When a cute little thing came walking by I leaned back on the stool, puffed my chest out and asked, "Where have you been all my life"?
She looked a me a few seconds, "Well Sir, for the most of it I don't think I was even alive".

Each morning eat a live green toad, it will be the worst thing you'll have face all day.
I can't remember the last time I stood up without groaning!
I can't remember the last time I got up................down...............or hit the ground without pain.
Mamma always said I was a gluten for punishment. A couple years back I finely realized how right she was.
I've known it for quite a while but really realized it when my Great Grand Daughter started driving and just turned 17 years old.
How old would I be if I didn't know how old I was? Depends on which day it is.
Probably around 45 or 50 if I didn't work myself to death the day before. Some things don't get done quite as fast as they use to.

I don't "age"-
I have always maintained my youthful looks & charm.
Besides, it hurts too much to age.
'Scuse me while I whip this out...!
I realized I was getting older when...
1. I noticed if I let my hair grow to more than 1/2" long I can actually notice it's grey.
2. I noticed I have to pluck random ear hairs more often than I do random long nose hairs.
The third and final sign I have noticed is a mystery I've yet to figure out, but somehow or another with each passing year the ground gets further and further away. Now I know my legs aren't getting any longer and I know my arms haven't gotten shorter, so clearly it's the result of some unknown phenomenon that science has yet to be able to explain.

Don't want to alarm anyone but I think the ground is getting closer. It's funny but it seems that without machanical assistance, I will never be more than 6ft from the surface of the ground.
A buddy of mine says "if we thought we were going to live this long we'd have taken much better care of ourselves".
That used to be funny.
We don't grow old --- we just collect more scars!

Jim you have a disease known as Terrestrial Hyeropia. Unfortunately there is no known cure. I have the other form of the disease Terrestrial Myopia.
You know you are getting old when you start bidding to replace the projects you installed.

You know you're old when the clear-cuts you hunted as a teenager are clear-cuts again.

You know your old when you look all over hell for your glasses, then someone points out they're stuck to your forehead.

This is one I ran into not to long ago....when no matter how hard you squint or how close or far away you hold it, you can't read the small writing on a case head to tell if it says .222 or .223.
