I bet he’s older than sliced bread. My parents are.

Is it a warranty or a use by date?

Old is when you hear about a guy dying at 79 and you say ‘but he was so young!’

I guess that Biz will shortly get a phone call offering to renew his warranty for a small fee.

When you’re 40, it’s like the warranty on your body expired. When you’re 60, it’s like the manufacturer no longer supports the product.

One day closer to the glue factory……..

I feel old when I start talking about someone or something from my life time and those I’m talking to have no idea who or what it is.

Not sure I like his “outlook”. . .

And your life insurance policy!

I knew I was of an age when my fortune cookie in a Chinese Restaurant said, “Damn! You Old!”

I could use a memory upgrade ;)

Once you pass 30, you’re already beyond even the last remnants of the manufacturers warranty. I usually pass on the idea of investing in one of those extended warranty agreements. But in this case the price is just too low to ignore.

Young is when a girl gives you the eye on the bus. Old is when she offers you her seat.

The old buzzard has my favorite cover, and his hair stinks as bad.

Make things that last. It’s better than recycling.

As long as it’s not the warranty on the pacemaker. I really love how when you get the check up on it they pat you on the back and tell you your good for another 300,000 miles. I have one to make sure it doesn’t take any more of those 20-30 second breaks, especially since normal for me was 40-50 beats a minute (that use to concern the docs when I had to get a physical). I’d get dizzy spells and finally one day I just passed out and went from standing and talking to passed out on the ground. So I was scheduled for the implant the next day.

I liked his response!

Based on human history the average life span has been about 45 years, until the middle of the 20th century. I’ve been living on borrowed time for 30 years!

yep… used to think 60 was ancient; now I think of it as adolescences

Apparently, I did that a couple of years ago.

And you’re pass your best-by date.
