So I am working in Seaford DE this week and stop in KFC for some dinner. I order my dinner and the girl at the checkout says "that will be $12.82 and I gave you a discount. Wow I think, a discount is really cool and then I look at the screen and it says SENIOR DISCOUNT!!!!! I am only 41, do I really look that old? The kicker of it all was that I was glad to get the discount! Wow, I must be getting old. Do I really look that old?

Maybe they only have "one" button that covers discounts and it's marked "senior discount" because that's what they typically use it for. Think about it, maybe she just looked at you and thought to herself "from the look of this guy .... he needs all the help he can get!!" LOL!! Does that make you feel any better?

Age is a matter of opinion. I'll be 60 & act like I'm 25. We can't change it might as well make the best of it. LOL!

I caught a part of happy days yesterday when i was channel surfing, and Mr. C was turning 45 and he was having a hard time dealing with it, and I was like "what?!" I always thought of myself as being like the kids on the show but I'm almost Mr. C's age! I'm like rob, growing up is optional. My dad is 73, and he's a real inspiration, he had an 07 trailblazer ss awd back in 08, and the first thing he did was sawsall the muffler off and put a straight pipe in its place!
