[Wonko the Sane]

Happy B'day Hotshot Rasher!!!!

Older than you..bloody ell.

 

[westley]

Ah yes ips BUT, you have forgotten to take into account the exchange rate !

 

[ips]

Good point Keith.

 

[Wonko the Sane]

So what is this now, some Metric Imperial Year???

And he's STILL gonna be older!

 

[Rosso]

So how old are you?

 

[Wonko the Sane]

1943 was a big year for me

 

[ips]

Just a pup then really Charlie. Best years yet to come

1943 was a big year for me

So how old are you ??

 

[Wonko the Sane]

Perhaps the bird can do the math for you.  Ring 'er up and pay attention

 

[Rosso]

Him.

I asked him what you asked.

He said 59 and who's a pretty boy.

 

[Wonko the Sane]

If you agree with that then you and he both are due some remedial math classes

but it does sound better I have to admit

 

[Finners]

Nowt to do with maths, I have had lots of really big years, but I was only born in one of them :biggrin:  

Anyway, you're only as old as you feel, even if your age is a two digit number beginning with 7. 

 

[Wonko the Sane]

You are obviously delusional.  That may moderate with age.  Far the most of that golden years BS is yapped about by people not there yet - maybe all of it.  Getting old sux goat balls and all the sop to the contrary is just for the not-old so they don't feel so guilty about not being old.

YMMV but if it does you likely need some professional mental health care    :crazy:

 

[Finners]

Does anybody know WTF he's going on about? :biggrin:  

 

[ips]

I think he means that people who say age makes no difference your as young as you feel blah blah blah are talking cack and that being old is actually not at all spiffing. As a recently turned 50yr old I tend to agree as when I was 49, 11 months and 30 days I didn't feel old at all but that one extra day made all the difference, Mortality is now a real possibility .......... BUT I always say being old is better than the alternative.

Thats good for him. But you can ASK him to elaborate, and he normaly does.

With more confusing stuff. :crazy:

Thanks, I understood that part of the message.

It was the "delusional" and "in need of professional mental health care" bit's I was referring too. Both are true of course, but how did he know  :sarcastic:
