>The surprising thing about growing older is that it happens at all. When I was young the age of 50 seemed unimaginably ancient. My daughters are the same way, only they would probably peg the edge of the abyss at 40. It's an alternate universe to them. I do nothing to correct them. Let them enjoy their heedless youth.

Our church, being located close to UCONN has a lot of young attendees. When I hear them mention something about the "older folks" I often ask them how many of their associates have ridden their bicycles across the state of Iowa. I'm doing it for the third time this July at age 69. That usually changes their perspective a little.
