The three stages of believing in Santa.

1) You are a small child, you passionately believe in Santa.

2) You are an older child, you don't believe in Santa.

3) You're a big kid. You are Santa. (And that's when you know that you are getting old.)

Kinda scary to be at 3 and only be 21. Not only do I love to give presents, but I grow out my beard and wear a Santa hat during the holiday season, and really little kids stare up at me wide eyed with the word "Santa?" hanging on their tongue. lol

You're 21? Yesterday I was recalling some nuggets of this thread with a 21 year old. He told me that he will know when he is getting old. Apparently his wet dreams & dry f@rts change places.
How times and traditions change, that's not something I would have dared told my Godfather when I was his age.

You know you're getting (too) old when you're looking at the birth dates of prospective summer interns...who have all graduated from college and are now third-year law students...and you realize that you have suits and ties and maybe even underwear that's older than the oldest intern.

Dang, I wish this was an exaggeration. :(

I hope those are vintage suits and ties not 70s monsters that you still wear. :p

Generally speaking, I've found that I've always been more attracted to women who are approximately my age. When I was younger, I rarely found older women attractive; now that I'm older, I don't find young women to be as attractive as I once did. Since I've always been attracted to my wife, I suppose that's a good thing. ;)

This is the first time (I think) that I've checked out this specific thread and this page was a jarring introduction - wow, no holding back here.

My two recent I'm getting older moments have been that I realize that I basically think about having my eyeglasses with me all the time or I know I won't be able to read a thing and I try very hard, but I don't like almost any new music (and I never wanted to be that person that only likes the music he grew up with).

And look like pig iron. :p

Speaking of "pig iron", I found a pair of new "tin pants" in my size. The back pockets &
crotch have rivets . They are very comfortable to wear.

So what...? [huh]

Well...glad you asked.

I find the Levis ™ label information interesting.
