Surprisingly good piece considering the sensitive political issues addressed. I turn 70 ,God willing in December. My girlfriend unfortunately has a hiking demon so I follow her around trying to keep up with her. However, the knockoff consequences for my conditioning have been great. Keep on moving and keep the old man out...
I'm sure I stepped on some political toes, Don, even when I tried to be humorous and even-handed. I hope you keep up with your girlfriend on your Camino walk!
I can see the "grim" facial expression you have when you say "I am adorable" 😎.
Hah, "age is just a number", but thankfully experience helps to overcome some the challenges that come with higher numbers. And yet, there is a time to leave the center stage and to see lower numbers take over. Hopefully one has been part of a succession plan and lessons learned could be shared. High numbers clinging to power has never been and will never be a good sight.
All the best for your 5 k! It won't be pretty, but it will be inspiring ❤
I always like it when English professors say nice things about my writing. In that sense I haven't aged much!
All sorts of creatures are adorable - pandas, babies of any species and granny, smiling with her lovely wrinkles. Not such bad company.
Thanks for being a reader, Virginia, but I'd rather be the world record holder for the 5000 at 95 - 99. 😉

This is a Very funny post. Your switch from the doc talking to you to McConnell had me in stitches.
