Amen!

very fine motto, Earl

“And if you don’t like how I drive, stay off the sidewalk…..”

“Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses??”

Is that the final solution?

Who would teach ?

Was this in line at the Golden Corral?

That was my senators discussing Social Security.

You go, Earl! I love it!

Great motto Earl. Mind if I borrow it?

How is a senior citizen like a Visa card?

There everywhere you want to be!

Earl was always in the way.

“I was spawned in a ditch by a mother who left me there, naked and cold and too hungry to cry/I never blamed her though, why should I blame her/she thought I’d have the good sense to die…”

Way to go, Earl!!!! Hang in there.

We geezers salute you.

“Old and in the way”, musical group from 1973-1974 with Jerry Garcia and David Grisman. “Beards of a feather”, Garcia’s daughter called them.

So Earl’s slogan is his version of saying “F—- You” to whoever was saying that?

I retired at 52. The company had hired two people for me to train as my replacements.

sounds good to me!!

Wife worked 40 years died at 61 they kept the money they weren’t entitled to it I was

I hereby adopt………er…..steal Earls motto

Being of the elderly persuasion myself, I totally understand Earl’s viewpoint. A few years ago I was in an accident, and confined to a wheelchair for a time. A good friend took me shopping for my modest needs and just to get me out of the house from time to time until I recovered. In one large store, we were looking at a few items. A salesperson stepped up and asked if she could help him. He said no, thank you, we were just looking. She then asked him, “Does he (indicating me) wish to see anything?” He looked at her, and very calmly said, “He has a broken tibia, but he’s neither invisible nor deaf. Why don’t you ask him?”

While flying home from a convention where he had spoke and mentioned it was his eightieth birthday, Cavett Robert sat beside a man who had heard him speak. The man said he didn’t know if he would want to be eighty. Cavett said, “Son, that is because you aren’t 79”.

Yep! That’s me! Get over it! ;o}

OK iff it’s everyone over 30, youngest first.

So many young people don’t seem to realize they will be old some day too!

I’m glad there aren’t any ice floes here in Southern Ontario…wouldn’t want to be set out on one..

I need that motto on a T-shirt for PJ.

Amen!

I’m with you, Earl!

“Old” is 10 years older than I am, and it’s a moving target.

Do people on cell phones in comic strips talk to characters of other comic strips?

Reminds me of Governor “Doom and Gloom” Lamm in the 1980s.

Many of those who oppose seeking cures for old age base their opposition on the same concept.. that people wouldn’t die quickly enough based on other causes.

Cold-hearted monsters.

Earl, you are living in a fantasy world. In truth, as of March 2018, active human euthanasia is legal in the Netherlands, Belgium, Colombia, Luxembourg, and Canada. Assisted suicide is legal in Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and in the US states of Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Hawaii, Vermont, Montana, Washington DC, and California. A law legalizing euthanasia in the Australian state of Victoria will come into effect in mid-2019.

Probably some young little whippersnapper, who said it!

I like the slogan. I’m going to memorise that.
