You Know You Are Getting Old When:

Dear Reader: At 79, I feel great and doing some of the best work of my life. But I would like to share a few observations with you. Please enjoy.

You know you are getting old:

1) When people younger than you are referred to as ELDERLY.

2) When people now walk with you to the car for YOUR safety.

3) When you qualify for every senior discount.

4) When you are quietly removed from the organ donar list.

5) When you can wear any outlandish thing you want and people cheer you on.

6) When you can spoil your grandchildren or the grandchildren of others and realize you no longer have to limit your generosity. You've become Santa Claus.

7) When people think you are wise, however little you may know. The older you look, the better. At last, a benefit to wrinkles.
