You know your getting old when....
« on: October 27, 2008, 11:17:17 pm »

You kind of know your getting old when certain things start occurring such as famous or infamous people start doing advertisements for things on TV....
case in point, the new commercial for a butter with Johnny Rotten or the advertisement for fishsticks with Suggs from Madness, where have the years gone or better yet, where have theirs' gone {-) {-)

And still no offer to appear in Eastenders

'OLD' IS WHEN...
Your sweetie says, 'Let's go upstairs
And make love,' and you answer, 
'Pick one; I can't do both!'


'OLD' IS WHEN...
Your friends compliment you
On your new alligator shoes
And you're barefoot.


'OLD' IS WHEN...
A sexy babe catches your fancy
And your pacemaker opens the garage door,

'OLD' IS WHEN...
Going bra-less
Pulls all the wrinkles out of your face.

'OLD' IS WHEN...
You don't care where your spouse goes,
Just as long as you don't have to go along.

'OLD' IS WHEN...
You are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police

'OLD' IS WHEN..
'Getting a little action'
Means you don't need to take any fibre today.

'OLD' IS WHEN...
'Getting lucky' means you find your car
In the parking lot.

'OLD' IS WHEN...
An 'all nighter' means not getting up
To use the bathroom.

AND

'OLD' IS WHEN...
You are not sure these are jokes?

You know you are getting old when your mate says "is this your daughter?" when you are out with your girlfriend.....

... sweet child in time.
You see the line.
Line that`s drawn between...- good and bad.

See the blind man, shooting at the world.
Bullets flying...

Mark- that beats Village People. Don`t you think?
If Omra remembers the Village People- I don`t think I want to know the rest...   8) {-) {-)
