Happy Birthday ... friend

Well if your sanity goes you would not know

And tomorrow I turn 54 and I still remember what is was like to be 21 .. .. but I have learned, that I may not be as good as I once was but I as good once, as i ever was ..


Today is the youngest you will ever be. Live like it !

Hello my friend..You are soo young to think about age close to mine..30 or 30+ is the age I want to go back...Mature enough to think and not only feel, and young enough to have your whole life in your hands..So feel happy, Mac

    thanks for your kind words. have a nice rest of the week and say hi to the sea for me.

Heh, I am 62 and ran a half marathon on May 30th. I started out six minutes after the youngsters started and caught half of them before we finished. I am 6'1" tall and weigh around 240 lbs. Also, when I am not working in Iraq and can find a game I still play rugby. My Mama is 86 and still walks two to the three miles every morning. You still are a ravishing woman, don't worry about age, just keep on "truckin."

Thank you for the encouraging words and the compliment...You and your Mum sound to be remarkable persons...My Mum is 85 and has a dimentia but I hope I've taken after my father - he was one of the founders of the swimming and rowing societies in my city and didn't stop reading until three days before he died at the age of ninety...He taught me swimming when I was five and now it is a passion of mine

oh its blood pressure Mariya.. having my 22yo daughter move in with all her woe's sure cured her problems.. but maybe it's a bitta strain being a superdad..he said as he recalls beating up 3 drug dealers this year..and as he sharpens his grandads stiletto.. \

Why do young men like older women?.. Ah well, you see there's a difference between a girl and a woman. A woman makes you feel like a man, whereas a girl makes you feel like a boy..if you get my drift.

Now if a real live woman is truly beautiful..that always stays with her. And that's you..

A young man is often a mess of insecurity about his masculinity.. and so the attention of an older woman is quite desirable.

Something similar, but about femininity, happens with young women and older men I think.

Then you get to our group. A man in his prime with a woman in her prime..nothing to prove see. So we just relax and be ourselves. Methinks this is a bit more sustainable..

Good evening Cliff...It's 11.30 pm here and I can finally sit undisturbed in front of the puter...
Trying to be good people always takes its tall..My superfunctional thyroid is due to my doing my best to be a good single parent and a good teacher. I'm sorry for your worries with your daughter, hope your efforts have done her good...
The day before yesterday I watched a documentary about a volcano lake where due to a fall of a huge rock in its waters, a great amount of carbon dioxide rose up to the suface of the lake and floated into the air, and suffocated 2000 natives living around..And I thought about you..The lake you live by is a volcano one, isn't it? So take care, my friend. Ah, how often the beauty we admire can turn into danger...
Last night I went to the opera.."La Traviata" from Verdi..Divine music. It seems I will die without finding a partner sharing my interests and likes to accompany me to places like this one
