Default A Tomatoville Chuckle

I just had a look at my profile because I couldn't remember what I had put there. Under the date of birth section I saw this:

"Please contact the Administrator if your date of birth has changed."

Okay, but first I'm going to call my mom and the news media.

If anyone has experience with this sort of manipulation, I would like to change mine from 1954 to...oh let's say...1984. It would be nice to be 23 again.

If we're all going back 30 years, I would only be 10. (Yeah right) I have to say I've had alot of fun in this lifetime, but it's true. I would change alot of things.
I'd start the changes with rich parents this time around.

Send me back to 1964. That would let me be 5 again. What a great age. Many people don't think of that time being happy, what with Vietnam, JFK assassination, MLK and Robert Kennedy also tragically shot down, but I was 5 and happy. My mom was young and alive. The world was my oyster. Sigh. I can't believe it's been 31 years since high school graduation!

The world keeps spinnin' and I can't change that. But man oh man, ...time does have a way of getting out of control.

Hand me another beer would ya?

I lie about my age on web sites all the time! I usually pick 1982; it was a good year.
It doesn't matter though. I may be getting old but I refuse to grow up! My sister-in-law and me at the local plant show last night.

Yeah, I'd like the younger body, too, but don't mind saying bye-bye to some of the stoopid things I did back then.

I understand Barbara WaWa will be doing a special this week on the advanced medical technologies that they can now grow any new organs to replace your old ones.

I, too, must have done some of those "stoopid" things. Good thing I don't remember them too well. I'm afraid if I had things to do over again I wouldn't live through them. Like my kids tell me, the older I get, the faster I was.

I celebrate anniversary birthdays. I am always 30. Whats that you say? Well it is simple. This year was the 18th anniversary of my 30th birthday, so I am still 30.

A 50 year old trying to hold on to 16 is NOT a pretty sight!!
