Let's do age! How 'Old' are you? A poll - Version 2

[energy]

Okay folks,
We've done company sizes, who's happy, etc..Lets see the average age of Cove participants. It allows anonymity for those who feel that someone really takes into account a person's age before listening to suggestions or advice. I will vote first at the tender age of 58, soon to change in April 23 (same as William Shakespear). But, he's got a few years on me. This should prove very interesting. Marc, you don't have to vote. We already know that you pre-date water.

Life begins..

Life, they say, begins at 40...

That's 7 months to go!

At what point are action (s) taken and advice given due to age & expierience viewed by yonger folks as deciet & trechery ??
(Chicken & egg question?)

What I do know for sure is that after my oldest son turned 21 - he admitted that for some reason "old dad" got a lot smarter than when he was 16.

No secret - I'm 54 this year too young to fully retire & too old to be taken too seriousley..

I'm 31 but have aged considerally since Energy posted my picture!

Heck, I have a 16 year old that has a learning permit to drive. I was with him when he made a right turn in front of traffic. I grabbed the wheel and got back in the correct lane while he was sitting at the wheel with his mouth open.

He said; " How the hell did you do that dad?"

Experience son!!!!

(I was at the doctor the next day with a torn muscle in my armpit)

It's 44 this June and I share a birthday with Moe Howard.

Energy sweetheart, such an irrelevant question where women are concerned!

But I will admit that I celebrated an anniversary of my 29th birthday last year!

I crack a smile every time I hear this because...

Feeling pretty darn good on my 40th, my adorable Grandma who turned 85 2 days later says to me "Well, they say life begins at 40 Laura, but don't believe it. It doesn't get better." "Yikes - thanks Gram, you're telling me its all down hill-nothing to look forward too?" "Yep" She cracked me up - here she is as healthy as a horse at 85 telling me its all down hill.

Atul - So far, I go along with the saying. Age is a number. The only thing I notice is the eyesight - and I have little desire to pitch anymore, at my favorite sport, softball. I still play, but reacting to a line drive up the pitchers mound is just a little too nerve wracking.

You missed one!!

Hey Energy!!

Ya missed one... where's:

"Older than dirt."




I'm lucky!!! I just turned 39 and I've got a 16 month old son to keep me young for years and years!!! (Til he turn 16 - then I get to turn old overnight... )

That's my daughter's age!

Can anyone explain the normal distribution that the result of this pole has given so far ?

P.S. I will be 33 on Saturday.

Hey, your my son's age. Lucinda is my daughter's age. My kids are bright, too. What do you mean by normal distribution? Looks the bulk of the respondents are 30 to 59. It can't be that simple!
