I used to walk the golf course with a full set of clubs slung over my shoulder. All seasons. Now, the thought of that, even with a lightened set of clubs, is incomprehensible. I would do it 3,4, or 5 times a week. I used to play the old Audubon course everyday after work. Great times, though.

Pee without some dribbling down my leg when I put it back in my pants. Can shake for 5 min and doesn't matter.

I thought this too but then I realized it was just the water from the bowl....I got a step stool to stand on to keep it out.

Good luck.

The most humiliating thing was when I was dragging myself through one crawl and the friction pulled my pants down to my ankles about halfway through. It was so tight I couldn't even reach my arms down to pull them up before I got out. My son and his friend along with 3 others were standing there in a logjam as I emerged. I was in a state of being utterly pissed off as I stood up with my pants around my ankles. Mumbled something to myself like "frick this BS."

I also thought I could still bowl well. I used to carry a 185 average. There were times when I had not bowled in five or more years and was always able to at least crack 150 or 160 the very first time I picked up a ball again. However recently I bowled only a 107 after about seven years. I was not even close to a strike. I threw in the towel.


Last time I went bowling I knocked down 9 pins and then missed the last one. 5 different times.

I shot a deer the other day on the edge of a hill which drops off 40 feet or so. Well of course it ran 4 steps and down the hill. Still feeling dragging it back up the hill.

A lot of stuff. Running tops the list. I went roller skating 2 years ago for a youngsters party. Two times around the rink and I was through. I honestly remember skating being something automatic and something that I could do until I fell asleep. Getting old is embarrassing when you have kids/nieces/nephews.

Catch my nephew to give him nuggies for messing with me. Found this out when we got together for Thanksgiving. I didn't take it well at all. He kept pulling my camp chair over backwards when I was trying to enjoy the campfire. Always been able to run them down at will but this time I couldn't gain a single step.

He did eventually trip and I was able to get over and light him up. But that's beside the point.
