    I've been thinking that for a few years now, and I'm still (barely) in my early 40's. I thought that youth-in-mind thing might dissipate as I got Forty-er, but now I'm starting to get the feeling that that never goes away. Probably why we're you're all creepy old men.
    PS - if any of you guys got cute daughters with daddy issues...

    I turned 65 today. Just one more milestone on my way to........well, let's not think about that.

    Hey Jim!
    It's funny - I've been thinking that for a few years now, and I'm still (barely) in my early 40's. I thought that youth-in-mind thing might dissipate as I got Forty-er, but now I'm starting to get the feeling that that never goes away. Probably why we're you're all creepy old men.

    Turning 40 didn't bother me a bit. Neither did 50. 60 however made me feel really old and it seems like parts of me immediately started hurting more often and the aches lasted longer.
