I've gotta admit. I'm also a member of AARP.

The horror.
Nah! No horror here! I'm kinda enjoying the freedom of the older age. Among other benefits it affords me the right to not give crap about stuff most people worry about. I can finnally wear my gray hair and post birthing/nursing (3 children, including twin pregnancy carried to term) beat up body like a badge of honor and not trying to cover all that and look like none of that has ever happened. I'll be 50 in 2 weeks and just realizing how liberating this aging thing is. How much more clarity in general outlook on life and how much simpler things that used to seem so baffling are now. One thing that I am much more acutely aware of is health. There are very few replacement parts that we can get so let's just try to take care of ourselves and one another each and every day. That goes to you too, Mister! Take good care of that "ticker":)

I would like to wear my grey hair with pride.
But it keeps falling out. :(

Hi, Gramps.:)
I'm going to grow my beard to preposterous lengths to compensate.
Adam with your features I'm afraid that long beard would make you a subject of some serious profiling I can just envision you with your beautiful bright eyes and rest of the face covered with long black whiskers hanging down to your waist... at some airport in EU .... ....... Picked up by security cameras and missing your flights because of detention for body search:) ... Rolling on the floor, clutching my belly
