You Know You Are Old When

A friend said he wants to die in a drunken whorehouse brawl on his 100th birthday.

One of my friends said "I want to die at 102, shot in the back by an irate husband."

Thank you. It was a bit over my math level anyways.
I only have 9 fingers, plus the one which I use to count them.

RE: Death

I have to say, my Uncle did it pretty well. Was a pilot his whole life, flew Corsairs in WWII, C119's afterward, then, ran an FBO at local airport and flew commercially spotting fish and crop dusting for the rest of his life. Sat down in his recliner one evening, fell asleep and never woke up.

Don't think I've ever seen one of those before. Then again, I've mostly lived where it was rural delivery, and the carriers used personal vehicles.
Given that most vehicles made in the last 20-odd years have large center consoles, it must be a PITA to deliver mail in a LH drive vehicle. ISTR maybe 20 years ago a number of area carriers had RH drive Suburus (probably specially ordered as a lot), but they didn't seem to stand up very well and were all gone within a couple years.

We were expecting the new CEO of the then 50,000 employee company to visit as he wanted to visit every site in his first year.

I came to work with a blazer and tie and had many compliments until Administrator saw me and sent me home to changed into work clothes…

Not sure what was going on that day but true story…

My guess is that you wound up pretty successful in life and that administrator could smell it early on. Got to not let gumption, persistence and capabilities interfere with their advancement prospects.

My 33 YO daughter just said that she only knows 2 people that carry handkerchiefs and I was one of them. I told her that way back, I used it more for her than for myself.

What's with these people wanting to die?
Only dying I want to do is tie dye.
I want to be 150 in the record book as world's oldest father and breaking the record.
