You know you're a geezer when.......................

A couple weeks ago my wife and I were watching Family Feud (that might be enough?) but the question was “at what age do people associate the word elderly with?”

The top 100 answer “was 60”

My wife and I just looked at each other? hummm.

When I was young 50 seemed elderly.
Now at 75 - 95 seems about right.

I remember hiring into the factory at 30. I’ll be 62 next month. The health problems I suffered in ‘22 feels like it added about 10 years - but I’m not complaining…….the good Lord gave me a second chance at life, not everyone gets that.
Now I’m the “old man” at work. But I always appreciated the wisdom that comes from listening and talking with those who traveled the path before me.
Three more years of hitting the time clock? Happy Camping to all?
 
My gal showed this to me today.. Hum, kind of reminds me of something..

My wife retired from teaching a couple years ago, but when She and her students would talk about birthdays her little kids (elementary) would say “Wow, you were born in the 1900’s” ?
 
The first Apple computers were being released when I was in school……with the green desk top screen, just barely advanced from binary code. The school suggested we go to the library and get accustomed with them - I spent my time with them playing Chess and Pong??

Post Edit: Which made me think about bell bottoms and tube tops? that’s all I’m going to say?
