How do you know you're getting old...

[Master Ray]

OK, this is a funny one... flicking through the TV channels this afternoon I came across 'Cocoon', remember that one?  The 80's film about the elderly gentlemen who found a swimming pool that was the fountain of youth thanks to some aliens... not seen it in years.  Good movie!

As I am wont to do, I subsequently looked the movie up on IMDb because, after watching a good film, I like to check out some interesting facts about same movie and here's one... Wilfred Brimley, one of the lead actors, was 50 when he appeared in this film.

Yup... I am now as old as one of the old farts in f**king 'Cocoon'...

50, a mere babe in arms... .....

Well I'm still young, just 35... But, lately I've started to worry because I'm getting older but I don't seem to grow up  Maybe it's because I was peaceful teenager - I didn't rebel and make trouble then so I think it's back-firing now

Least you weren’t watching Logan’s Run.

Realising that there's only one man still left alive from the lineup of Motorhead I saw live (1990, Leeds Uni - Lemmy, Phil Taylor, Wurzel, and Phil Campbell at that time).
