    I think it was in the 90's that I realized I was old.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    When the music that I remembered from my childhood ('80s music) I began to hear on "oldies" stations that used to play '60s and '70s music.

    I was going fishing about 15 years ago, had a sunburn so was wearing a big straw hat and baggy clothes...sunscreen ...walked down a river bank and a bunch of college students were partying and I heard them say after I passed them..."Check out the old guy in the hat".....that was my first realization that, yeah....I'm fuckin' old....

    When I reached the age where after saying "30 years ago", it was factually correct for me to say "I was a teenager".

    I thought if people can come on here year after year and post that we are going to finish in 1st every season and that Trump is a solid guy and great leader......I TOO can post nonsense.
