I only deleted because I posted it to the wrong thread and did not feel like re-writing it again. I am sure it is a sentiment all we "old" guys feel. anyway, here is the original post: 63, gulp. This one bothers me more than I thought it would since I just realized I am closer to 65 than 60. I guess I am old. funny thing is, in my heart I still feel like I am 35..except when I look in the mirror and see my father staring back at me...

I think it's somewhere around 66 in the USA, but it keeps changing

Going to be 68 in December. What you have to look forward to, Bilge_Rat: in the past year, I have had people on the bus get up and offer me their seat; nothing makes feel suddenly older than the first time that happens...

Yes I am already entitled for old age pension but not while my wife is still working.
You always have to be 2 up on me Vienna!! No one has offered up their seat for me yet, if they got the chance they would probably take it!!
