#1 I remember at the age of 30 easily running a 38 minute 10K. I still run, but I struggle to crack 10 minutes for the 11/2 mile on my semi-annual PRT...20+ years later.

Yeah...50 is the new 40. NOT! :-)

#2 Madonna has been around with her cheap publicity stunts for so long, I'm surprised she isn't over 70.

#3 Importantly, it has been known for a while that people will invariably say that they feel younger than their age. They get a shock, however, when they ask other people how old they look. Especially if they guess older than their actual age.

#5 I never really felt my age untill I hit 60. But as my sainted "fadder" usta' say..."getting older sure beats the alternative"... Just sayin'

AND, a completely unrelated question for any and all Rantburgers out 'dere. To whom can I attribute the quote: "If you are not a liberal in your twenties, you have no heart. If you are not a conservative in your forties, you have no mind." I've beenn told it is from Churchill, but can't verify it. Y'all can respond to my e-mail listed. Thanks in advance for your help.
