I did "young" for a long time. It was fun, but it was a *****. Painful and expensive, too.
I found a new nose and ear hair trimmer last week, and it works really great. I never imagined something like that could bring such joy.
I look forward to all this old guy stuff. It's new horizons. Places I've never been before. They have drugs for everything, and I'm gonna by stylin' in my Hoveround.

Scott,
Funny you post about the hair and nose trimmer. My dad asked me the other day what I needed out here in Afghanistan and believe it or not, out of all the crap I could of said, I told my dad "I can use a nose and hair trimmer." So I know your pain brother I know your pain. Plus being the damn Army after 17 years Active Duty you start to feel your body turn to light brittle after awhile. My lower back, shoulders, and knees hurt every damn day. Getting old sucks!
