And you remembered your glasses so you could read the date of the concert because you're short term memory isn't what it use to be, right??? :D

Weaser reminded me of a recent event. I was in a hotel looking for my wife and carrying a box of her crap. I started down the escalator just as I saw her coming up, so I turned around. Those steps move! I fell and skinned up my knee and hand. That wasn't bad enough, but then a bunch of people, including hotel people came up and asked if I was alright etc. I felt old as well as stupid.

Then they saw you had spilled a box of crap, and left.

Andrea - I'm so sorry ! You'll be able to tell if you're middle aged if come back saying you've enjoyed the concert. (It'll never replace entertainment!)

First guy--
"There's no capo for this song right?"

Second guy--
"That's right, no capo."

First guy (after waiting a couple of seconds out of courtesy)--
"Maybe you should take your capo off then?"

The Michael Bolton bit may be a bit misleading, Will Young actually makes Tiny Tim look like Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Yes, It was the `X' Factor over here in the UK.
Supposed to find the next Elvis or Beatles - What a fine job they did of that. (Don't get me going on this one !)
