HOPE..... it will get better. I think it was Plato(?) who said a man can live weeks without food and a few days without water..... but only a few moments without hope. We will climb out of this horrible hole and hopefully get better than we were. I got doubts...(tons)...but I still got hope.
You know you're a geezer when.......................

And in winter.... frozen spring!
In thinking,this is the perfect car for us geezers.
When pulling into a gas station you don't have to
remember which side the fuel door is on.
With it at the rear of the car you don't have to think
and avoid the embarrassment of moving the car to the proper side.

That's true but knowing me I'd forget to set the brake and it would roll backwards over me.
I took the 1956 R50 for it's last ride today...heat it up, gas it up, change oil and tuck it in the garage for the
season of hibernation. Oh I sure hope 2021 we are back in action!

. . . . your ability to remember song lyrics from the 60's and 70's
far exceeds your ability to remember why you walked into the kitchen.

It would suggest I’ve been a geezer for the past 40 years.

We may have just hit the apex of the geezer curve with that one...
That’s good, it really is.

.............................do I dare ask, "What kind of sound effects?"
No need to answer, we already know.
