Just had 74th. Many prostate inspections...first one at 20 (getting drafted) in the Army. About 10 guys in a row bending over as the doc came down the back of the row inspecting. I’m assuming he changed his glove each time...it was over 50 years ago! Still healthy today and very active. Thankful for all the good healthcare I’ve had through the years.

69 in August... about 82 in the mirror. However, as Dr Jones once said "it ain't the years it's the mileage".

Turning 75 this August...
I agree OldE that raising a granddaughter helps. Ours is three and like her mum is sharp as a tack. Makes me smile.

January 27, 1944. The day the Russians liberated Auschwitz. Life is good.

Like recycle sixties, turning 75 in August. Generally in good health, wife is too. Got my COVID shots, keeping busy restoring a 67 Bug. Sold the Porsches, work a few hours a day on the car and honey do projects. Life is good. Got my hair cut last week, young lady asked me how old I was, she was surprised when I told her. She thought I was in my early 60’s! She got a great tip...

I would have said to the hairdresser that is what you tell all your customers....
Since the covid and they initially shut down hairdressers(they have since reopened as one hairdresser threatened to sue the province) I bought a hair trimmer. It does an acceptable job. Bob you seem to be doing well.

Old enough to know better.
Young enough not to care.

62.

I had a lump removed from my boob. The lady surgeon told me I had a beautiful chest... I should have tipped her.
