Middle aged pumpkin growers
Hey, you kids,
I was replying to the chap from - was it Argentina? - who said he was an
OLD punkin grower, 40 already. While that may be old in the southern
hemisphere, it ain't old here, and the digging WE do is for planting,
not burying. K (40+++)
I'm the one who wrote about 82, it wasn't a definition of old, merely
defining 41 as middle age. I do have plenty of fun, I also figure that
I'm looking forward to the second half of my life. I think anyone who
worries exessively that the title "middle age" or "old" means your done
for need to rethink things. Those terms are just definitions, not ways
of life. I'm still bald, 41, "middle aged" and I'm comfortable with it.
I'll leave it at that, and get back to enjoying the tongue in cheek
humor this thread started with. Good luck with next year's pumpkins.

I figure since he only wants to live to 82, then maybe HE is old. I am
over 50 and have no such plans of rolling over in my grave so early in
life. I have known 25 year old people to be "old" and 75 years olds to
be "young". It is more a state of mind and attitude. Sounds like he
needs more fun in his life.

Would someone tell him that here in the USA 40 is NOT old. Unless you're
a squash. K
