Aging Report 2007 and Questions

10:09, 2007-Jun-8  ..  Posted in Warped Humor  ..  0 comments  ..  Link

I feel that I may have reached another plateau in life in terms of age. RichW (of SQAForums), you were supposed to give me a heads up on this stuff!

I once saw a research report that said all cells (or was that molecules) are replaced in the body every seven or eight years. Why the hyell do I have the same wrinkles that I had 8 years ago? Does this mean there are exceptions? Anyway, I thought I should list my concerns and ask some questions...

  • Creaking: My joints creak. My wife keeps WD-40 with her when we go out into public.
  • Buicks: I now salivate when I see one.
  • Younger female teammates: I now call them "Hon".
  • Hair:

Who decided the hair on the top of my head should depart for southern pastures and why? I used to keep a moustache trimmer. Now I use a nasal and ear hair trimmer. If I trim the heavily forested nasal area, am I compromising part of my immune system? Do older dudes need these natural filters to compensate for loss of body defense elsewhere?

What about my heavily forested ears? If I trim those, then I can hear my wife and those comments about selective hearing diminish. But then I can hear more of my offspring’s music playing – stuff I really wouldn’t call music??

This past spring I would step outside and a bunch of chickadees would swarm my ears. Were they thinking my ear hair was good raw material for their nests? 

Why do individual eyebrow hairs reach down and wrestle with my eyelashes?

Why do I wear out razor blades faster than previously? Is it because I must now include the surface of my nose? Who designed my nose? I have heard that it is a quite large piece of real estate. Was the designer thinking that more real estate equals more profit potential?? Hyell, I sure cannot seem to sell off any parcels.

  • Attire: Why do I browse this site?
  • Athletics: Why am I hoping that RichW (of SQAForums) will invite me to join his outdoor shuffleboard team? I can hit a home-run Rich!
  • Vitamin-supplements: Why does the word "Silver" attract my eye?
  • General stuff:

Why do companies promise me that they can ship me diapers to my front door – diapers in inconspicuous packaging?

Why is mail mailbox stuffed with assisted living brochures?

Why do I feel embarrassed to listen to The Four Seasons with other people around?
