[elleng]

2. HA!

[Faux pas]

4. LOL

as long as I'm younger than somebody, anybody, I'm good.

[Politicalboi]

5. AARP has been sending me shit

Since I was 39. I figured they meant my mother, but it was my name on the mail. Now that I'm 54, I get my auto insurance through AARP and I just recently threw that mag out.

[progressoid]

13. So,

We've been thinking about AARP auto ins.

How do you like it? Have any problems with them?

6. When Bin Laden was still on the loose -

and we apparently didn't have a clue as to where he was, someone wrote into the NY Daily News that the feds should just tell AARP that Bin Laden's 50 y.o. and they'd find him! LOL

[oldandhappy]

12. Great! Good laugh.

[wordpix]

15. funny!

[liberalhistorian]

25. I used to think that was true until

just last month when I turned fifty. I got my AARP card, alright, but it was sent to my parent's address, where I hadn't lived for over ten years, and in my maiden name. I moved from my parent's state ten years ago and have been married for nearly eight years. That really surprised me, since I always thought they had former CIA people working for them, given their accuracy.

7. Old

I remember the sudden depression that came over me watching Barack Obama's inauguration in 2009 when it occurred to me that for the first time in my life I was older than the President.

Dylan, on the other hand, has always been older than I am, so no problem.

[NJCher]

17. That's nuts

"Being older" just means you're a little closer to transitioning out of this experience. What's the big deal about that? Means nothing unless you buy into American media stereotypes.

21. Obama Is the First President I Am Older Than, Too

But I didn't feel depression because he is youthful. It just felt like another epiphany on a day of epiphanies.

[babylonsister]

8. I could feel that way, but what age is official?

I don't want to feel that old, so am attempting not to! Dammit!!

[sheshe2]

9. Aaaaaaaah~

spanone.

[3catwoman3]

10. It was worse when Valerie Bertinelli was...

...on the cover. (I think I am remembering that correctly.)

[brewens]

11. Must have been about 15 years ago I went to see Dylan. Great show! He had a really good band.

Talk about no fucking around, for two hours it was song after song with just a quick band introduction in there somewhere.

Asleep at the Wheel was the opening act. That was a treat as well.

[awoke_in_2003]

14. I have my AARP card...

I am 47, but the wife is 57, and spouses get a card, too. So, yeah- I get what you are saying.

on edit: Holy Hell- LeVar Burton is 58

[kairos12]

16. Me too, Call me "Mr. Oldjangles."

[Thor_MN]

18. On the cover of the AARP

Well we're big rock singers
We got aching fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten thousand dollars a show
We take all kinda pills
cause we got all kinda ills
But the ill we've never known
Is the ill that'll getcha
When you get your picture
On the cover of the AARP

19. <snort>

[SoapBox]

22. LOL

Reminds me of when my Mom was in an Assisted Living for a couple years (she at the time was the youngster at 85).

The dining tables seated four persons at each...there was a man, that had started rubbing the leg of one of the ladies, each day at lunch...and all the seniors there knew it (what a BUZZ that was causing!)

At that time, they were each about 100 years old!

[3catwoman3]

23. Oh, that is absolutely brilliant!

On the Cover of the rolling Stone is one of my favorite silly songs. Always makes me smile. Now, your version will too.

[classof56]

20. Oh, my...what memories this evokes!

I just turned 77, so clearly older than Bob. I have been a fan of his since Day 1, have two copies of his first album plus several subsequent ones. My spouse just got me a turntable for my birthday, so I can once again play Bob's tunes. I attended two of his concerts--one in Denver, another in Seattle with Joan Baez. Had seen her in concert in Denver, as well. Not to mention The Weavers, Peter Paul and Mary a couple of times, the original Kingston Trio, and then there was the Herman's Hermits performance, opened by Paul Revere and the Raiders. I have all their albums, which I'm now listening to along with Rod McKuen's, whose words and music touch me still. I hope I have enough time left to enjoy these tunes over and over. Like I said...ah, the memories, and the joy that comes with them!

Looking forward to my upcoming AARP magazine!

Blessings to all.

(That's me, channeling Joan)

[Old and In the Way]

28. You are very cool

You set the table for great folk bands in the 70s! Thanks for being here!

[KMOD]

24. hahaha

I tease my husband about his mailings all the time. I'm not too far behind though.

[pkdu]

26. Dont knock it...I just saved $15 on a hotel room for next Sunday in San Diego.

[Old and In the Way]

27. Listening to Hot Tuna in the moment.

"Keep on Trucking"....it never gets old!

[Old and In the Way]

37. OK, you inglorious bitch....

That was the best goddam thing I have seen on the innertubes. Who knew Hitler was a Deadhead? I had heard thar Goebbells was a huge fan of the NRPS, though. Who wasn't though? another 500 mikes and you'd see Jerry playing steel pedal while Anton Wison would be giving the audience the Last Rights. Good times.

[Old and In the Way]

38. I watched that 5 times...got every reference.

Brain is totally cleared, but I never knew that Hitler was a Deadhead.....must have been 'Mason's Children' that turned him....the basstid.

[tridim]

33. Dylan goes geriatric

[QC]

34. He looks almost exactly like Vincent Price now.

That's what I find really disturbing.

[frazzled]

35. Just wait till we're all slobbering old geezers in the nursing home

We used to take my mother-in-law to the concert in her nursing home every Sunday afternoon. It would usually be some group or soloist singing things from the 30s and 40s. You know, Irving Berlin, Fly Me to the Moon, Cole Porter.

And after a while it hit me: it's going to be really ugly when our generation is sitting there staring out of their wheelchairs, drooling, and singing along to In A Gadda Da Vida (baby) and I Can't Get No Satisfaction. Please, I hope I'm so mentally incompetent I can't be embarrassed.

[spanone]

39. bwahahahaaaa....Purple Haze

[47of74]

36. Yeah, just 3,756 days days until I can join AARP.

And just 103 days until I go over the hill.

[Jamastiene]

40. I'm 44 and been a member of AARP for a couple years now.

They said to go ahead and sign me up too, when my aunt called them to sign up. It's no big deal. I think they let people of all ages sign up with them. The biggest thing my aunt likes about it is that she gets to sign all of the things that go to Congresspeople to tell them to leave Medicare and Social Security alone.
