+ADw-DIV+AD4-AGE IS A FUNNY THING+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-Do you realize that the only time in
our lives when we like to get old is+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-when we're kids?+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-If
you're less than ten years old, you're so excited about aging that
you+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-think in fractions.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAJg-quot+ADs-How old are you?+ACY-quot+ADs-
+ACY-quot+ADs-I'm four and a half.+ACY-quot+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You're never 36 and a half.
You're four and a half going on 5. That's the+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-key. You get into your
teens+ADs- now they can't hold you back. You jump to the+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-next
number.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAJg-quot+ADs-How old are you?+ACY-quot+ADs- +ACY-quot+ADs-I'm gonna be
16.+ACY-quot+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You could be 12, but you're gonna be 16. Eventually.
Then the great day of+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-your life+ADs- you become 21. Even the words sound like
a ceremony.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You BECOME 21...Yes+ACEAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-Then you turn 30.
What happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk. He+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-TURNED+ADs- we had to
throw him out. What's wrong? What changed? You Become 21+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-you
Turn 30.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-Then you're PUSHING 40... stay over
there.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You REACH 50.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You BECOME 21+ADs- you TURN 30+ADs-
you're PUSHING 40+ADs- you REACH 50+ADs- and, then you+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-MAKE IT to 60. +ACY-quot+ADs-I
didn't think I'd make it.+ACY-quot+ADs- You BECOME 21+ADs- you TURN 30+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-you're
PUSHING 40+ADs- you REACH 50+ADs- you MAKE IT to 60.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-By then you're built
up so much speed, you HIT 70. After that, it's a day+ADw-BR+AD4-by+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-day thing.
After that, you HIT Wednesday. You get into your 80's+ADs- you HIT+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-lunch. You
HIT 4:30. My grandmother won't even buy green bananas.
+ACY-quot+ADs-Well,+ADw-BR+AD4-it's+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-an investment, you know, and maybe a bad one.+ACY-quot+ADs-
And it doesn't end there.+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-Into the 90's, you start going
backwards. +ACY-quot+ADs-I was JUST 92.+ACY-quot+ADs- Then a strange+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-thing happens+ADs- if
you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. +ACY-quot+ADs-I'm+ADw-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-100 and a
half.+ACY-quot+ADsAPA-BR+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAPA-BR+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4APA-/BODY+AD4APA-/HTML+AD4-
