I guess many of us are in the same boat and living alone with a need to express ourselves and voice our opinion on a number of things. I truly appreciate and enjoy the interchange with my peers, some younger but not many older. I have participated on many forums over the past 35 years and they were much different because of the average age of the members being so much lower than Senior Forums. We oldies have a plethora of experiences & knowledge to share that the young-uns just can't match.

So thank you fellow members.:D

Give them time.

In the meantime they're doing a grand job of keeping me fed and watered, and still breathing, for which I'm very grateful.
 

I like that this forum presents a cross section of views and experiences of...finally....people near my age. Although I think I am still probably one of the oldest, if not the oldest, here.
Yes AC, forums have been around for a very long time. I first discovered them 29 years ago, in 1988. They were more informational vs social and were already well established, at that time.

I don't know if you're the oldest, as I think someone said they were 90. And I think you said you're early 80's?

We do have a good cross section here don't we? And 4 countries.

You should see my passport photos!! You'd swear I was about 100! Worst photo ever.
 
Three years is not long, Falcon. Mine is two years old I think. I have not had to renew my driver's license picture for about ten years. I do not even know that woman LOL.
 
My pic is only about three or four months old. My secret is two and sometimes three late afternoon cocktails. Gin & Tonic, Vodka Tonic or screwdriver, occasionally it'll be bourbon and Pepsi or Tonic. The only exception is on any day I have to drive somewhere in the afternoon or evening, then Nada. Never had a DUI and never want one.
