This is a question that's been posed to me a LOT lately . . . unfortunately, it's been asked with varying degrees of "sarcasm" by various women in my life (Jeanette, my daughter, my ex-wife, barmaids at gigs). . .
Are we talking physically, or mentally/emotionally??
Physically: 49 (as of yesterday). ouch.
Mentally/emotionally: It varies on time of day, and whatever form (and quantity) of "marinade" might be available at the time.
btw Miles;
So far (as I can tell) the new "features" are pretty cool! Great job! Thanks!! |

I was gonna stop by your gig last night, but decided against it with all the snow (d'you guys even play?).
Besides, Jeanette was at home making me dinner, so I opted to do the (ahem) "mature" thing.
. . . this "gettin' old" thing blows! . . |

Are there only old farts in this Fan Club???
Where are all the rest of the young 20-something, free spirited, guitar people?

Take a trip to the nearest home for elderly people and find out how much wisdom you get out of their alzheimer-brains.
And the older you get, the slower your fingers move, your hair starts turning grey, rinkles start showing up in your face....
Nah....I think I'll stick to being 29 for a decade or two more. And honestly, I still feel like I'm 22. :) |
