Just for fun, I'd like to hear what others consider getting old means... For example.. you know you're getting old when you're out in the wilds and have to relieve yourself, and you can't p*** far enough to keep it from splattering on your feet! Or how about when you start to get dressed in the morning, and when you go to put on your underwear, you can't tell the leg hole from the waistband? Well I guess that really only applies to anyone who wears briefs, and is getting fat, but I think you all get the idea....Any other observations?

You know you are getting old when...

..your cataract prescription isn't a lie.

...you finally figure out how daylight savings time works.

...you can't smoke two packs of cigs, drink a fifth of whiskey and be up at first light in the summertime like you used to....

...when YOU are the one turning down the stereo on the way to the put-in...

...when your hands lock permanently in the 'rowing' position...

You know you're getting old when you have to sew a label on all your underwear in BIG print: "YELLOW IN FRONT, BROWN IN BACK"

You know you're old ....

when you forget how old you are.

when you can't have your birthday cake during a burn ban.

when it takes you several years to wear out a pair of sneakers.

when instead of checking your birth certificate for your age, they saw off one of your legs and count the rings.

Just remember - the older you get, the older old gets.

....plunking starts to sound pretty good to you.

or

.... staying behind to do the morning dishes and wait for the young bucks to go off and drive the game down to camp while you leisurely toss logs on the fire to keep the coffee hot.

Getting older means that I have to sit down to tie on a fly(need to steady the hands). Getting older means you have to buy your flies because you are to shaky to tie them.

You know you're old when you no longer have to set the alarm to be on the water before light and you hav'nt seen the news in months because 11:00 pm is just to damn late.
