catgate Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Ok....So, how old is middle age? What are the parameters? What is the range? I thought these question were heading in the direction of statistics, and I was expecting someone to come up with the additional question about "What is the Standard Deviation".

rong Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 If it's 35, then it dose happen over night, unless you stay up till after midnight on the eve of your 35 birth anniversary ;) in which case it's almost instant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 What I would like to know is, why is a woman always 21? Only until they become forty, and then they pretend to be thirty. At fifty they become forty, and so on until they stop ageing at a pretend sixty. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchful Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 The best idea is to stop celebrating birthdays after the age of forty. It's more luck than management as to what age we reach anyway and it's all downhill from there :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more luck than management as to what age we reach anyway and it's all downhill from there :(It's an uphill struggle all the way, until you finally "step off" and let the whole turgid mess carry on, on its appalling way to some universal black hole.

andsome Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 What's the matter with you miserable lot? I love birthdays, and am always pleased that I have managed to clock up another one, and still engage in things that I enjoy. :D :D :D :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchful Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 I'm an optimist and I do enjoy birthdays; it's just the extra year that goes with them I object to but I do get a bit pessimistic about the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only you know that Irene Well, I know how old I am, but I really don't think I am. Maybe it's all in my head! My body certainly reminds me of the facts occasionally. :lol: I love birthday celebrations. In fact, I think I enjoy any celebration which happens to come my way. :D .
