Now that I am 73 I can tell you younger folks about the two certain signs that you are getting old, so pay attention! The first is that you start to forget things. The second is…oh, bother! I can’t remember it.

The fifth is that you start repeating yourself.

I already have the back pain down.

Squint-eyed Southerner · Mar 15, 2024

Well, this seems appropriate right about now: 🙄

Tyelkormo the Fair · Mar 15, 2024

I don't know I've always felt this way.🤷🏻‍♀️

Over-flexible joints, maybe? It can give you poor posture and ironically some muscle stiffness.

Could be. Also, schools here don't have lockers, so we had to carry all our books to school and back everyday. Mine were quite heavy.🙂

Two things:
1) Have you been checked for scoliosis?
2) I know some (most?) youngsters would rather chew glass that use one of these (or similar) to transport books, but it will save your back and neck .

Thanks, but I meant my highschool years. For uni, I mostly use E-books.

And the scoliosis? Already been checked for that?

You didn't have to use Narya, Gandalf.

The lion is the King of Beasts/And husband of the lioness./Gazelles and things on which he feasts/Address him as Your Highoness./Ther are those who admire that roar of his/In the African jungles and veldts;/But I think wherever the lion is/ I’d rather be somewhere eldys. Ogden Nash

Muskrat · Mar 16, 2024

The rhino is a homely beast./For human eyes he’s not a feast/he has a moldy moth proof hide/his teeth are upside down outside./Farewell to thee, you old rhinoceros./I’ll look at something less preposeros. Ogden Nash

Hey, EA: looks like we're gonna need a "Non-Tolkien Jokes" thread, over here!

*gaspe* can we post Star Wars prequel memes there???

Squint-eyed Southerner · Mar 16, 2024

I don't see why not.

Do we? As it's in "The Floating Log: If what you have to say just doesn't seem to fit anywhere else ...", it's my feeling that's wide enough to cover all jokes and memes. And Ogden Nash is a poet who would probably be quite popular in the Shire, especially with the likes of Sam ... 😁

Squint-eyed Southerner · Mar 16, 2024

This thread should really be in Bag End. I wasn't in a "position" to move it, at the time I revived it.

Then the "Non-" thread could be in Floating Log.
