Any yufela get any ideas about da "maturation process" an' da attendant wisdom you guys wen pick up? I know dat Ed an' Peter M get tee shirts commemorating dea advanced akamai-ness. Slipry1 get some pointers too. Here's one of my observations:
You know you're mature when the ear in your ears turns gray.

Its all relative you know. That's why I like go cardiac rehab -- I am the youngest babe there!!!!!
Maturity is when you buy a dozen of the Target store 99 cent reading glasses and keep them all over the house and in the car and in your purse, etc.
But one thing is embarrassing -- when kumu says "i lalo" and you hear the crack of my knees as I try to go down. |

"I lalo" is easy. "I luna" not so much.quote:

| About 20 or so years ago, when age was starting to creep up on me, I was bitching about the price of toys in an upscale toy store. My wife said "just a minute", and she wen away and came back with a badge that said "Old Fart" and said "If you're going to act like one, you might as well identify yourself" |

I could lend mine to Paul. Just gotta make sure no Poli-Grip on there. I think it might gum up the steel guitar. And that would be fittin' for him to learn to play that way because our local kumu hula is a dentist by day. |

Jokes like that run in my family. We all cut our eyeteeth on puns.

I believe Jack meant to say "naw."
Or, more accurately, "gnaw."
(Just to put a further dent in the proceedings...) |
