Why the long face, Missileer? I'm happy to be older. As my mother said in her elder years "Either you get older or you don't. Faced with those alternatives, I'd rather get older." I am 55 years young.

I didn't feel so old until I read some of the posts. Man, I've got socks older than some of these folks. But, every day you wake up is a good day.

Charge_7, do you remember the "atomic bomb" drills in grade school or were they stopped by then?
