Fifty Forever

When you were a young-un With your whole life ahead of you It's hard to imagine Life ever coming to an end But it does my friends... it does! As sure as the night follows day Astronomically speaking Wouldn't it be great to make it to 50 And then live like 50 forever! Hallelujah! (or not)

Hmmmm...I'm not really sure about that, Jack. Let me reflect and see if I can remember what 50 was like. Well, I had my heart attack and open heart surgery a few days after I turned 50. Nahhh! You stay 50, Jack. I liked 30 quite a bit, though. No come to think of it, I believe I got divorced at 30. I can't decide on a good age to stay. Maybe the later 30s. They were pretty good.

Not sure... my first wife passed away in 1999! Married again in. 2002! My life was in two segments... both great! I guess it's how you look at life! Cheers!

Hmmm… if would definitely be at least mid-forties for me… but I’m also loving every minute of being 60 and having grandkids!
