About to turn 78 in October. Great to be in the company of folks around my age.
Back in '81 I drove a machine with 3000 shaft horsepower weighing in at around 2000 tons. Those were the days!:canada

Last year for my birthday the guys had a cake for me that said 21 going on 60.... but I'm actually 22.

Apparently im old because I go to bed at 9:30 every night, don't drink, don't smoke, eat healthy, don't go to bars and basically I'm a goodie two shoes....man my life sucks.

I hate to say I am right there with you. I am 23 and very rarely go to bars and my friends make fun of me cause I don't drink very often and I like to go to bed earlier instead of staying out and up till all hours of the morning. I have heard the "old man" comment too many times LOL. Oh well I guess to each their own.

I was stoked to see that I fit into the community age group well, I fall under the 21 - 30 range. Apparently 30% of all voters were in the same group! Awesome!
