I had a birthday last Wednesday.... A few of my former friends inferred that I was old. Well let me tell you my mother let me know a few years ago that 60 was not old.

She still does not consider herself old and she is a good bit older than I am.

My wife's older brother Ron, who in another life, was one of the best columnist in the country, sent me an email.

He sends me one, two or three times each week, and most of them are funny.

I guess he still considers himself to be a columnist but his audience has decreased considerably.

Well this time he was implying something about the problems associated with getting old.

I say speak for yourself.... old greybeard. At any rate this is what he had to say.
