Okay since there seems to be a funny threads phenomenon in here...I thought this one would be fun as well...

So...only those in their 40'ish and below 60'ish are allowed in here.... rolleyes.gif

It would be nice to read all the funny and maybe not so funny experiences of life to those that have acquired a "certain" maturity (*cough*) and are not considered "seniors" yet.

We all know that the popular opinion is that women are more beautiful when reaching the age of 40 and more sensual..(*cough*) personally I think it's all BS....and that men are at their sexual peak in their 40's...again gentlemen no offense but that's complete BS. tongue.gif

I'm curious to read your opinions and stories.

Let's have fun in here.

Well now, what fun. I am going to have to be in five forums at the same time. But since I am a woman I can do five things at one time. If it says keep out, I usually don't.biggrin.gif

LOA, are we going to talk about a woman's view on men at this stage of life?

Besides I agree that women are alot more sensual and know what they want at this stage. Men don't. (see the joke I threw in the old fart's forum)

Flora,

Sure the women who wants to express their views on men at this stage in life are more than welcome to do so...

and if men have their own views on it as well then...let's hear it...

It should be quite interesting and fun reading.

LOA biggrin.gif

And Flora that's perfect...crashing in other's threads "especially" when it says "Stay out".... thumbs_up.gif way to go girl!!!

I think I can pose this question here?????? Who do you think hit a "mid-life crisis" first????
Men or women???????
Do you know any man that has hit theirs yet????



Posted by: Harlot 12-Feb-2009, 06:21 PM
Ok I will tell a little unknown fact about myself and Please do not look unfavorably at me. When I was 42 I met someone that was younger then me and I do mean YOUNGER. 17 years younger what a DUMB mistake that was ,took me 12 years to figure that one out. Too me at the end of our relationship it was more like I was rising another kid, been there done that kinda thing. Right now if I could find that special person,they would have to be 58 to 60 years young, over 6' ,have a job, same interests as me(not saying Oh yes to something I like to do and not really meaning it ) funny(I love to laugh and joke around) caring ,loving.

So ya I think I have had my Mid-Life Crisis

One more thing I still look at them male youngins' and think "Oh too be that young again" throw in a Kilt and I'd have a meltdown

44, and still soooo much to do......


Posted by: Lady-of-Avalon 12-Feb-2009, 07:36 PM
Hey Jay...right on that's the spirit...age shouldn't be a barrier for us to do the things we enjoy in life unless of course if one has serious health problems.

LOA

Posted by: marti64 15-Feb-2009, 07:25 PM
I guess I agree with Jay!!! 44 and so much to do!!!!!!!
I think my philosophy now comes from the fact that i have had to learn to live on my own.
thank god for special people in my life!!!! It has become easier, now that I have found another special person....and someone to share the rest of my life with...HOPEFULLY!!!!
It is harder to go through the 'rest of your life" and realize that you are going to be on your own!!!!
I am thankful that I still have years to do what I want to do.....
there are so many things that i want to do.......
Even though we are getting to the "prime of our lives" we should enjoy them with someone special!!! wub.gif angel.gif

If I may? As an "Old Fart" I can honestly say that being older has its advantages. Remember the story of the two bulls standing on a hill overlooking a pasture. The young on turns to the old one and says "Hey Pop, what say we run down there and get a couple of cows". The old one turns to look at the young bull and quite calmly says "No. Lets walk down and get them all". angel_not.gif jawdrop.gif lol.gif

Well done to open this thread! A own thread for people in his prime...
Prudent enough for smiling about the follies of the younger generation - we know all these things even if it doesn't believe it - but harebrained enough that the "old farts" have a chance to grumble a littlebit about us... biggrin.gif

Midlife crisis? Because I intend to reach my 120th birthday I haven't to be worry about such things as a midlife crisis...

No kidding! Sometime I think about me and my life. I think about the things I reached and all the thinks I'll maybe never (say never never) reach. There are moments I see that I am really in the "mature" generation and in the next moment I feel like a whippersnapper... But I have to say that I don't behave as such one (not just yet wink.gif )

No idea, marti. A lot of women within our much-lauded age try to look out like eightteen and looking for boyfriends which have this age, a lot of men within our age slap-bang discover their preference for girls, they could be their daughters and try to impress them with juvenile affectation... and both act tragicomic. That's a real kind of midlife-crisis - Maybe they fear to miss something - or they can't deal with their own age.
I think: My own age is the best age in my own life.

On this note

My mid-life crisis? Don't think I ever had one. I just turned 51, look 41 and feel like 21! (well maybe more like 23, but still...)
And as for looking 41, thats not me saying it. I typically really surprise folks when I tell them my age. We tend to not look our age in my immediate family.

Hey, Carolina how many days do you consider a few?

The other day my husband and I took my grandson to see Monsters Vs. Aliens and the Fast and the Furious opened. As we came out of the movies there were kids acting crazy in their cars and my first thought was they should know better. My second thought was "Oh, no I have become one of "them". "Them" being that older generation that rains on your parade. It was just yesterday (yeah right) that I was the kid. Have you had a defining moment yet?

Baby's First Doctor Visit

This made me laugh out loud. I hope it will give you a smile!

A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining room, waiting for the doctor to come in for the baby's first exam.

The doctor arrived, and examined the baby, checked his weight, and being a little concerned, asked if the baby was breast-fed or bottle-fed.

'Breast-fed,' she replied.

'Well, strip down to your waist,' the doctor ordered.

She did. He pinched her nipples, pressed, kneaded, and rubbed both breasts for a while in a very professional and detailed examination.

Motioning to her to get dressed, the doctor said, 'No wonder this baby is underweight. You don't have any milk.'

I know,' she said, 'I'm his Grandma, but I'm glad I came.'

'Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long before $2, 000.00 will only buy a used one.

'If they raise the minimum wage to $1.00, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store.

'When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 29 cents a gallon. Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage.

'I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying DAMN in GONE WITH THE WIND, it seems every new movie has either HELL or DAMN in it.

'Did you see 'I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas ..

where some baseball player just signed a contract for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday they'll be making more than the President.

'There is no sense going on short trips anymore for a weekend, it costs nearly $15.00 a night to stay in a hotel.

'No one can afford to be sick anymore, at $35.00 a day in the hospital, it's too rich for my blood.'

'If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it.'

I remember carbon paper.

I remember the smell of the mimeograph.

I know why we “dial” a phone number or “turn” it to a certain television channel.

I remember the fading “dot” when you turned off the television.

I used to draw against Matt Dillon in the opening credits of “Gunsmoke,” and won every time (of course, I was just using my finger, while he had a real gun).

I’ve illegally copied music by holding a tape recorder up to an AM radio.

… And that you used to have to push “record” and “play” buttons to get it to record.

I’ve opened a can of Spam with a key (and tuna fish too).

I remember when milk was delivered to your door in pint &quart sized glass bottles.

I’ve opened a bank account with one dollar.

I remember some relatives not having an indoor toilet.

I remember the insurance man coming every few months to collect a weekly premium.

I know there used to be leaded petrol.

You could only get watermelon in the summer.

I remember adjusting roller skates with a skate key.

I remember phone booths.

Crushing beer can took a LOT more effort, because they were made out of tin instead of aluminum.

When you returned empty drinks bottles, they sent them back to the factory to get refilled… and you got your deposit back.

Sorry for the delay. I'm to the age remembering what one is supposed to do is chancy at best. smile.gif In other words, I forgot about it till today.

Who was Boston Blackie and what kind of car did he drive. Boston Blackie was a detective on a radio show that became a TV show. He drove a Jaguar XK120.

Red Ryder was a popular fictional cowboy hero who started out in comic books then moved to radio, then movies and finally to TV. The best known iteration of Ryder was played by Wild Bill Elliot. In this series of movies, Ryder's Navajo friend Little Beaver was played by Little Bobby Blake who started in the show business in the Hal Roach comedy movie series Our Gang. When this series moved to TV, it was called The Little Rascals.

When the Soviets closed the road and rail line from West Germany to Berlin, the city was supplied by the Berlin Airlift.

What were Victory Gardens? During WWII, many food supplies were limited and rationed because the food was shipped over seas for the trrops. People were urged to grow their own food in a Victory Garden to help the war effort.

Before the mid fifties, many families avoided crowds in the summer for fear of polio .

Well this makes me look old I do remember all of those. My grandmother Davis had the outhouse on the farm and my grandmother King had one in town. I can remember when they both got indoor bathrooms.

As for that part time job hope to hear something this week as the lady that I had too talk is on vacation and will be back on Monday.

This was funny and not like that has happened too me,but I have gone to Dr visits with my daughter. I did have fun when I helped my daughter move into her collage dorm. The RA came into the room and introduced himself to us and was telling about the get together that was planned for all new freshman that evening. Said they would have food and drinks and hoped he would see us there. Well my daughter told him that I was her mother and I would be going back home, he told that was too bad but I was more then welcome to come anyway. It was always fun when I went up there to get her for the week-end getting invited to all kinds of parties that she always had to spoil the fun and tell them I was her mother. Some of the kids didn't seem too care said I could come anyway.LOL

How about "Pinkey Lee?" That was a kids show on the first TV I saw. (A 6 or 7 inch round screen with a sliding magnifier in front of it.) Also the "Howdy Doody show". That is many years ago! There used to be a Circus show on sundays and the broadcast in our area was about two hours in the evening and 4 or 5 on Sat. and Sun. I think news was a half hour then.

We both grew up when the radio was our indoor entertainment. Dad limited the amount of radio we could listen too as it was "bad for us." I was about 7 when I saved enough money to buy a crystal radio kit. I built it in a cigar box. I managed a set of head phones from I know not where and low and behold it worked. I spent many nights awake in bed listening to the one station I could get. It was all adult fare at that time of the evening and that is probably why I developed an interest in things that didn't concern other kids my age.

I haven't thought about crystal radios in half a century.

Posted by: Camac 11-Apr-2009, 07:07 PM
Patch; I never had a crystal set but I was allowed to listen to the Radio between
4:00pm and 5:00pm during the week and until 7:pm on weekends. Something we had in Canada that I don't think you had in the States was up until the early 50s' you had to have a license to own a Radio. That was mainly because the radio was mostly C.B.C and since they were public radio they were subsidised by the Gov. and the license fee. AM Radio and the vaccuum tube that made it possible were invented here in Toronto by a man named Rodger.

I remember that our radio was a wooden table model. My Aunt had a floor model radio with lots of buttons and dials. As I recall ours was hard to tune in but once we had it the sound was good. My wife's grandfather was an engineer who worked with radio transmissions. He was also part of the development team that created the "proximity fuse" that made dropping the Atomic bomb possible. I do not remember what our signal was here but if we would have had to pay for it Dad wouldn't have! I didn't ever take the back off of the radio but I know there were lights you could see through the back panel. I saw one for sale a few weeks ago and thought about it but at $160.00 it was just something else I didn't need.

I go into antique stores now and see things we used in my youth.

When my children were old enough to help clean we had what I called" Music Appreciation". This is where they took turns choosing what kind of music we had to listen to while cleaning. Micheal Jackson's Thriller was the one my daughter would listen to all the time. My son would just pull out a album didn't matter what it was. By the time the album (both sides) done the place was clean.

Camac and Patch I don't remember listening to radio shows, I guess we had always had a TV.

Posted by: TheCarolinaScotsman 11-Apr-2009, 08:53 PM
I don't remember the radio serials. The kids weren't allowed to operate the radio and my parents probably wouldn't "waste time" listening to such. I do remember mom listening to Arthur Godfrey while she did the ironing (back in the days before permanent press). My brother had a crystal set, but he was eight years older than me and wouldn't let me touch it.

My grandparents had a hand crank record player. The records were about a 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. We got our first record player in 1957 for the family Christmas present. (Mom started back to teaching that year so we could afford a little extra, though not much. Also she won $500.00 in a drawing at the Belks store for Christmas. Big money in those days.) Talk about wonderment. Dad had gotten two records: Oklahoma and a Fred Waring Christmas albumn. We listened to those over and over til the grooves wore out. I still have those two records today even though they are totally unplayable.

Posted by: Patch 11-Apr-2009, 08:55 PM
I remember laying on the floor in front of the radio with my eyes closed imagining every scene.

We got TV about 1955 though my relatives had it much sooner. I remember going to get it with dad and was it ever heavy. I carried it and was afraid if I dropped it we would never get another. A lot of the old radio shows had moved to TV but there were also many new ones. After everyone had their chores and homework done we could watch two hours. I often did homework for my siblings so we could watch sooner. (I was the oldest.)

It was not long till the novelty wore off and the rules relaxed a bit.

Ahhh the memories.

Just got this email the other day I thought you might find funny, interesting.
It was a piece actually done by Andy Rooney from 60 Minutes about women over 40.

"As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.

If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize.

For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?', here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!"

Most of the time I feel (relativly) young and well, but there are days I realize that I'm actually already a honourable member of "Mature people club".
Today is one of these days.
I celebrated the 21st anniversary of my marriage today. My wife was very happy, that didn't forget the date in this year...
After a such long time too I have to admit: We both did a good choice together... smile.gif

Best regards

Ingo
