One day I saw an old lady sitting on her front step, so I walked up to her and said, "I couldn't help noticing how happy you look! What is your secret for such a long, happy life?"
 
"I smoke ten cigars a day," she said. "Before I go to bed, I smoke a nice big joint. Apart from that, I drink a whole bottle of Jack Daniels every week, and eat only junk food. On weekends I pop pills, and never do any exercise at all." "That is absolutely amazing!" I told her. Then I asked, "How old are you?" "Twenty-four," she replied

..You're not as young as you used to be, and.. you're not as old as
you're going to be, so.. Watch It! {Irish, saying}
 
..I used to think that when I get older, it would be dreadful.. be-
cause I should not be able to do the things I'd like to do; but now
that I've reached that advanced stage-in-life, I don't want to do
anything at All!

{comment: This last 'truism' might logically explain why there aren't
nearly as many 'BB' posters, as the 'days-of-yore'!
..Since the "Baby-boom" generation {now in their 50's on up} was
replaced by several {numerical} "baby bust" generations; it could
be.. that, with few exceptions.. you're either too old to be sufficiently
motivated, too involved supporting yourself and others..or, Both!
 
..The other Major exception around here, is.. most of the Caissa
members who are only {or mainly} motivated to complain!}
