      As long as you can think that way, as well, life may be much more enjoyable than otherwise.

      After walking away from a failed marriage (she was/still is a drunk) I decided to start all over. Since then I have managed to make the payments on a new house, marry a beautiful woman, and we have delightful identical-twin boys. She has her own first motorcycle (Honda Rebel 250) in the garage beside my 1250FA. They look good together: both bikes are black.

            Meh, you're among the youngest here anyway, I guess.

            But yes, methinks the age variance swings wildly in here*. Which I like, and don't focus on - if I do, I judge (at least, try to) people by what they write, not their age.

            Anyway - itsa somewhat funny feeling to own a machine older than oneself.

            Hella satisfying though.

            *) granted, young players usually chime in for a bit and then drop off. Debatable if these count.

              Doesn't matter how old I'm not . I'm sure I'm in the younger half of this population but I do remember these bikes when they were brand new.

                  I have met Allie and had a couple of her muffins.

                  Both were enjoyable experiences.

                  Yes, she is among the younger ones of the forum, no matter what she claims.

                    No one ever comes by for muffins anymore, so I plan to start bringing them to the archery shoots that I go on. Perfect super food for flouncing through the woods all day.

                      Seems to me Sandy and I are both north of 65 so that puts us in the older than dirt category.

                            Right... you have to have those things strapped to your back all day before you can eat them. You'll be glad of the calories believe me.
