The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 18, 2023

If grammie is mother Gargle she hasn’t age problems because she is a witch.

His Grammie should know all about the middle ages, she lived through them.

Don’t ask her to help with your homework again.

She’s not wrong.

So far at 62 I still feel as if I am middle aged. My dad, when he was alive, did it right. He said after 40 was when things started to go downhill for him.

“Old age” is ok if one has their health.

Hey kids if you were asked this question just say the Middle Ages made us for what we are today. The Middle Ages helped to establish the Renaissance. And if it wasn’t for the Renaissance we would still be in the Dark Middle Ages today!

Having the body of an oldster but the mind of a youngster is frustrating!

Spot on. Once I hit 40. I sped downhill. At 77, I can’t even see uphill. My wife is home – Hospice. Her Birthday is 31 Jan. I pray she makes it. Just a goal. The last 6 weeks have been devastating. Came back from our yearly Thanksgiving vacation to Myrtle Beach, S.C. Suffered terrible stroke. I just walk to walk away after she passes.

The older I get, the more I appreciate Ibuprofen…

Getting old is really quite pleasant, except for the depleting bod, that is. But, even with the bod problems, I have all the time to recuperate. And when I die, none of those depletion’s will matter.

Mother Gargoyle is the embodiment of the dark ages.

at least there not fruits. :D

Awww, c’mon, teach! Not even a smile?

Middle Age is dropping something on the floor and then asking yourself how can I pick that up…old age is falling on the floor and spending half the day trying to knock your phone off the table to call someone to help you up.

It depends on your attitude on any given day.

Middle ages were the best. And while old age has it’s issues, l am enjoying my life in most aspects better than any other period before. Got the time, money and l can keep myself busy doing what I want to do, including this….

I can vouch for that..

First Time Wilberforce had the correct answer!

Good ole Wilber Thornapple, no matter the age maybe, Wilberforce is clueless.

I’m surprised Gramma Gargoyle said that, what with the witch hunts and all.

To alleviate her pain, Grammie Gargoyle has opted to dump her unhappiness on her son-in-law.

Hey teach, they never promised you a rose garden when you were studying to be a teacher. They probably never warned you about students like Wilberforce either.

It’s better than the alternative.

Mother G isn’t wrong.

“Hey, Pop-pop let’s camp out on the family room floor and binge watch The Tom Baker Dr. Who Blu-ray collection.” OH, TO BE TWEEN AGE AND FLEXIBLE AGAIN!!! ;-)

i’d say that old age is just a state of mind, but then i’d only be admitting what a poor state my mind is in…

Your Grammie is right, kid.

my mother said getting old isn’t for sissies
