CaPMan - You just lost your "advantage." I'm 70 and will be 71 in December.
What am I doing on a board of young people? Sometime, just sometime, if you are selective and very careful one can learn from the Young. Most here seem very knowledgeable. I'm thankful that there are no restrictions of Age on the Board.

I take my hat off to you, Mudd, it's nice to see the older generation keeping up with technology, and I am sure there are many things that you could teach me.
My mum & dad are a bit older than yourself, and are now on their second computer after only six months of getting into it.
Good luck with everything.

It was a "necessity" in a way, in order to keep my sanity. Wish I had the space to explain it all but would take to much time and space.
I am a little sad that all this technology came at a time when my days are limited and will not see the future things.
What a world it has been! From a time when Radio was only for the wealthly, before TV, and now all this. It has been a blast!!!!

I agree, I wish this technology was around 20 odd years ago, when I was a school kid.
I do remember the change from black and white to colour tv though, which was an amazing thing in itself.

Nobody can make me feel bad about age. Man, I'm so happy that I made it this far nothing is going to change that!
I refuse to be an Old Man!!!!!!! Still get my kicks out of thinking like I'm 20 or 30. Good Looking Women still look the same as they used to, Good Looking.
Unless some of the old people's diseases get me I'm going to die happy and be aware of it.
You young people need to appreciate what you have, try harder for what you don't have, be happy and be generous with yourself to others. That will get you a long way.

You speak with lots of wisdom, Mudd, and I am sure you could tell some interesting stories of life that would make us either laugh or cry.
I have lots of time for the older generation, because if it was not for them I would not be here.

From your posts it seems you have your head squared on your shoulders. Most younger generation people are totally uninterested in the distant past. I have two children, rather had as they are both middle aged people now. Neither is really interested in the 30s, 40s or the 50s even. I think they will regret that one day. I understand this as the pace of life today is so rapid as compared to my young days. I miss that very much. Glad I lived in my time. Seen, done, and enjoyed things that you younger fellows/gals will never have the opportunity to know. Enjoy your youth while you have it. It will be gone sooner than you realize.

I love talking with my parents and my in-laws about how things were in the past, especially life during WW2. Not so long ago I was searching for something on the internet and stumbled across a very informative site about life in the war, it kept me engrossed for hours, even though it was not what I was originally looking for.
When you were younger you probably got up to mischief as I and probably almost most kids did/do, but nowadays the kids seem to take it to a new level.
We have a phase going on over here labelled "happy slapping", which involves a youngster slapping a random person around the face whilst being filmed on a mobile phone (cell phone), by one of their friends, the images are very quickly sent to all their mates, and then from them to others, latest case reported on the news was of it happening to an 82 year old lady, it is senseless and disrespectful, and makes you wonder what sort of a sick world do we live in nowadays.
Hope it is not happening in USA, and never does.
Sorry for that turning into a bit of a rant, but life today is not what it used to be.

How do you do that thing with your signature (I think that's what you call it)? I'm supposing whoever reads it gets their own info? When it first happened to me I thought I was hacked! Hell, maybe I am In line with the subject of the thread I'm 70 and my computer (this "rock") makes me feel 170 
We are the kids now, you are the new adults. But wait, when your grandkids are your age what then????????? My grandad had a hard time with payphones - wouldn't go near them! Still had gas lighting, one coldwater tap, outside crapper, etc. He called the street the "horseroad" - many horses up to '45-'50.

If someone (a guy) slapped me for no apparent reason , He would be on the ground before he knew what hit him..As for a girl slapping me ...well I would take by the arm to the nearest alley and.....x-rated from hereonin.

Thought I'd let you guys know that I'm a 55 year old lady. Age really doesn't mean much unless you let it. You can learn from anyone, any age, who has experience of something that you haven't. you lot have taught me so much about computers, I THANK YOU ALL!!!
Hazelnut
I'm 15....
65, and I can remember entering data with punch cards and the computer was a small house. We have made great strides since then, but the girls are still prettier at closing time. Glad some things never change.
I'm 35, and it's good to see other older people here. I see lots of post by people in forums (not here) where you can just tell it was posted by a very young person, no ofense to the young folks intended. But even the young people on here seem to have a better grasp of life then on some forums. I like it here a lot! great app that had a side effect of a great forum!
84 repeat 84
i am 18.11
I'm 27! ....well 27 x 2 = 54 for another 2 months. (I sure don't act 54, whatever that is)
I'll then have to figure something for 55.
.....didn't we have this thread a few months ago? I thought we did...hmmm.
