Reality check.....

This morning, I read that Ringo Starr is 70 yrs old.  I came across that bit of information while reading my AARP magazine.  Hmmmm......  (Think I'll spend the day in bed - under  the covers!!!)

Blimey! That can't be right. If Ringo's 70, I must be ... getting old. How did that happen?

Pat said...

Yep - we sure are getting older - yet somehow I expect the Beatles to stay young and am always surprised when I realize all those Rock stars are in their 70s!

I just cancelled my AARP membership - way too much junk mail and not enough good stuff to keep me interested.

Hop out of bed....

YIKES!!! Then again, more power to him!

Reality? What's that?

LOL! Did you see Mick Jaeger on CNN? I think he is even older than Ringo but the Rolling Stones keep on rolling! All of the old rock stars are an inspiration to me.

I cancelled my AARP too.

Ah, those reality checks are mind boggling, aren't they?

Several times a week I have to say outloud "I am 65", and I still don't believe it. How and when did that happen?

I saw that exact same thing. I also saw that Sean Connery turns 80 this month and he's still hot! What's up with that? Antonia Banderas is 50! as is Valerie Bertinelli and David Duchovny. Those hit home as well. Antonio needs to get rid of the gray beard I think.
