Model A Ford Senior Citizens.......

To me, getting old is a gravity issue. I hope I never become a grumpy old man! As to the discounts that are available, I'll take all they give, I really don't care about their motive. I could say more but one of the things I have learned as I got older, is when to stop talking and keep quiet... And to enjoy ever day I wake up on the right side of the grass. and with that said I think I'll take a ride in the '29 pickup.
 
Just got this as an email from a friend, perfect..
1. My goal for 2016 was to lose just 10 pounds … only 15 to go ...

2. Ate salad for dinner …Mostly croutons & tomatoes ... Really just one big, round crouton covered with tomato sauce ... And cheese... FINE, it was a pizza... I ate a pizza …

3. How to prepare Tofu: 1. Throw it in the trash. 2. Grill some Meat.

4. I just did a week's worth of cardio after walking into a spider web ...

5. I don't mean to brag but… I finished my 14-day diet food in 3 hours and 20 minutes ...

6. A recent study has found women who carry a little extra weight live longer than men who mention it ...

7. Kids today don't know how easy they have it... when I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel...

8. Senility has been a smooth transition for me...

9. Remember back when we were kids and every time it was below zero out they closed school? Me neither.

10. I may not be that funny or athletic or good looking or smart or talented … I forgot where I was going with this ...

11. I love being over 70 … I learn something new every day … and forget 5 others ...

12. A thief broke into my house last night … He started searching for money … so I woke up and searched with him...

13. My dentist told me I need a Crown … I said, "You bet, pour mine over rocks" …

14. I think I'll just put an "Out of Order" sticker on my forehead and call it a day ...


"Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed."

A wise man indeed ! Keep up the healthy outlook on life. Wayne
 
To all my fellow Model A drivers that are young, good looking, virile and single like me, our own, "Happy Young, Good Looking, Virile and Single Day" is coming soon, I'll post that too when I find out when it is....I once knew but I forgot!!!!! :o
 
Just turned 92. I will tell you when I get old. Darn still limping around since I broke my hip in December. The funny part about my problem is the artificial knee hurts like h-ll. Ol step and a half Tony
 
I am 71 and still working so I only have weekends to work on my Model A and T.
I leave home at 6:30 AM and get back at 6PM.

On top of that it takes me twice as long to do anything on the vehicles today as it did a few years ago.

I need to live until 103 to complete the projects that are on my current to do list -assuming that the list does not grow.

If being labelled as being a senior is seen as a negative thing why does this forum refer to its long standing and experienced members as senior too? Surely that is seen as positive.

You have to be the all time most one star recipient ! Wayne
 
Ya don't got to be a Geezer to be a SENIOR. In some places at age 50 a person gets entitled to half price on a plate of Eggs n' SPAM.
 
Our local Chili's restaurant here has a policy to card everyone ordering alcoholic drinks, regardless of age. It is a bit confusing to order off the Senior's menu, but still have to show ID to prove your old enough to purchase alcohol when you order a beer with that meal. Makes my 68 year old wife giddy with glee to be asked for her ID card though. Me, I get a kick out of watching her when they ask for her ID. :-)

When you get to be a senior you begin to realize just how STUPID people can be. And they STILL don't listen to us!
