Attitudes go with the person not with the age of the person;

Thank you for the calibration!

A little Billy Idol or AC/DC on the morning run will also move you a bit quicker.
As a matter of fact, we about died when we heard "Rebel Yell" and "Money" for the first time on the Square. Hopefully it won't be long before we get "Crazy Train", "Highway to Hell", or "Welcome to the Jungle" playing down there. LOL

Welcome to Jungle will be playing this Sunday at the Bengals game. Guns and Roses " Sweet Child of Mine" is one of my favorites! Too bad Axel Rose abused himself so much but loved the music.

Those of us OLDER villagers have lived long enough to know the difference between threads that are clearly asking for information and insight and those that are thinly veiled opportunities to try to feel superior. We older villagers are superior because we are superior. When the rest of you get to be our age then perhaps you will be superior too. Until then all of this bragging about being younger is just falling on deaf (in many cases truly deaf) ears.

Carry on. I am turning up my Kingston Trio music.

Back to back....belly to belly.............

Reminder do not direct comments toward other users. Being younger or older does not grant anyone superiority. I am sorry if our sharing of our experiences and music has offended any of our older Villagers as I am sure the older users sharing of their experiences and music has not offended me.

Point set game match.

And that is why there is so much pickleball played here in The Villages by people who used to play tennis. Because age happens. It is happening to all of us. We will discuss this in four years. AGAIN. With a different group.

Just remember, the FBI spent two years investigating the lyrics to one of our (old timers) songs.

Exactly! That is why one needs to embrace change and enjoy the evolution of life and culture. It is just not the good old days but a brand new world evolving. Our physical abilities may deteriorate but hopefully we continue to experience what this world has to offer as we take advantage of the fact it is growing smaller and smaller.

Some of us understand what The Chicken is really saying. I understand. Can we have a show of hands?

We older villagers are superior because we are superior. Kind of a ridiculous statement considering the point you wanted to make above....


When the rest of you get to be our age then perhaps you will be superior too. Until then all of this bragging about being younger is just falling on deaf (in many cases truly deaf) ears.

- Where in the world would this come from. I posted a question and observation that generated great dialogue between different age groups and perspectives. Sorry it didn't go the way you liked....

Where was anyone bragging about age????????????? Expressing common likes???? Not sure anyone put you or your music down. Geesh.....
Crank out the Ozzy....
