I was aware he was close to my age, but that's pretty darn close. My brother met Adam while he was working on "The Patriot". Said he was a really nice guy.

...grizzled? Colorful and appropriate for, um,
grizzled-type people. But, uh... grizzled?

Veterans sounds ok tho. Anyone lives to be 50 is
a veteran of somethin.

Here's a shout at you flywithmecaptn. I was born in '62, and Guns of Navarone was a favorite of my brother and I. Ah, the days before VHS and DVD, when you could only see movies like that after the ten o'clock news. Yet once, I must confess, I saw it on the big screen during the summer movie series at the Paramount here in Austin. So cool to see it as it were meant to be -- in all it's Cinemascoped glory.





Ah, I remember too before DVD's and VHS.
I remember my first 8 tracks were Rush and Aerosmith. Now listening to Rush on CD, I still wait for the beak in the song, where it switched from track to tack.

.....Oh you just me old people ...well middle aged... well not so much old and not young people ...like me. (43)

BTW I think Gina and Adam are 40ish

40 isn't as old as it used to be, that's for sure and for certain.

I'm 38 with the spine of an 80 year old - does that mean I can get grandfathered in or something?

Veteran
You had a bunch of categories once for those of us who have been here since before, during and just after cancellation. I know "veteran" falls in there, as the ones who were there before cancellation, but I forget the rest.

See? See? That sould get me my very own Over the Hill cap right there! I'm thinking Jayne-style, only maybe black and white instead of orange and pink *bleh*

OK, so I am speaking for myself. If it weren't for Nice 'n' Easy, I'd be grizzled.
