Eamonn Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 "growing old and feeble "? I was old and feeble! Now I'm starting to think I'm ancient and decrepit!! Before I can start to work the ticket I'd have to write it: Ten minutes looking for the pen. Ten minutes looking for the bifocals. Twenty minutes trying to remember what my vision was? By that time Rory and Joe need to go out for a Doggie constitutional stretch of their legs. Have to re-find the pen. Remember that the bifocals are on top of the old noggin. By which time I'm feeling tired and weary and thinking "What the heck!! Tomorrow is another day!!" Seen in another thread that my good pal Beaver had a birthday last week (Many happy returns.)I think he said he hit the big 50. I hit it 18 months back. Received a few cards telling me I was over the hill!! I must be! But it's a lot easier coasting down the darn hill than it was peddling up it -Wheee! Ea.

Not to interupt the song but you know how us old foggies are..we have to talk while we can still remember what we were going to say!!!! When I hit that half-century "benchmark" 3 years ago...a couple of friends of mine who live in other states secretly conspired with my best friend here, to have the grim reaper show up at the Scout meeting...complete with bouquet of black balloons!! It was very unexpected and quite memorable. The boys got a real kick out of it too!! sue m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntr Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 "Nice to see I'm not the only one with this song stuck in my head for all eternity" Whenever I sing my daughter (4 y.o.) a bedtime song, she wants "the Animal Song" and she sings it with me.
