[teach1st]

1. I may be 51, but...

..I can still kick some ass! Well, if I can find my teeth. Hey, who stole my teeth. Damn young'ns.

[LincolnMcGrath]

2. lol

[ofrfxsk]

5. LOL!

[DeepGreen]

[miss_kitty]

34. HEY! Old Man!

You lookin for THESE?





c'mon, you can catch em

[LincolnMcGrath]

36. He he How do you do that?

[miss_kitty]

38. I typed [marquee] before and [/marquee] after the pic URL

I thought teach1st should have to work to get his choppers back!

:evilgrin:

[LincolnMcGrath]

40. Thanks

I shall try it.

[LincolnMcGrath]

41. Testing

Can this work on Sig Lines too?

[miss_kitty]

53. that I don't know.

take the second order off-the command with the '/' in it means 'stop' in html lingo

[LincolnMcGrath]

56. Where will it stop?

Or will it go and pause, go and pause?

[ruthg]

93. I am 53 but..

I am exceedingly immature.



remember..."you're only young once, but you can be immature for a life time"( with any luck)

[Reverend_Smitty]

3. I'm in the 19-25 range aka...

draft bait or cannon fodder...either one!

[mark414]

4. solidarity brother!

i'll see you on the battlefield!

or actually probably in jail

[blondeatlast]

65. Another thought: Vancouver.

It's beautiful, and my son will be there in a few years if there's a draft.

From a 45 yo mom.

[LincolnMcGrath]

67. Forget Canada

They already inked a deal with * to send objectors back.

[LincolnMcGrath]

9. I prefer the term Asset Protector

lol

[da_chimperor]

11. Got your helmet ready? Getting shot from a cannon is dangerous stuff

I picked up mine last week.

[NVMojo]

12. And I'm the parent of more than one who would be drafted ...

so that makes me about 47-53... maybe that explains the jumps in some of these numbers? Parents and their offspring who may get drafted? I hate Bush/Cheney.

[murielm99]

43. I'm in the next bracket up from that.

But I have potentially draftable kids, too.

:(

[LincolnMcGrath]

46. Hello murielm99

Did you go to the meetup?

[murielm99]

50. Everyone I contacted could not go.

I don't think there was a meetup.

:shrug:

[LincolnMcGrath]

51. bummer

We really need to plan an event after the holidays.

[murielm99]

59. Good idea!

Maybe something for Western Illinois and Eastern Iowa types.

A cross-border meetup would be good.

[da_chimperor]

6. I may be only 21, but I've had old folks tell me I'm wise beyond my years

and I voted for Kerry and am a total political junkie, so I can't be THAT naive. ;)

[LincolnMcGrath]

14. My years may have surpassed my wiseness, or sumpthin?

[da_chimperor]

18. It's always possible. I've got friends my age that act like they're 16

It's really embarrassing at times, that's why I've become more selective in choosing friends recently.

[qnr]

7. 40-something I forget. I might have selected wrong n/t

[LincolnMcGrath]

15. At what age did you start counting backwards?

[qnr]

21. Actually, I don't count backwards. I just kind of lost interest

in counting somewhere around 25 or so.

[LincolnMcGrath]

28. @ 25 I started adding a Letter

25

25a

25b etc

[qnr]

33. wow a new numerical base system! n/t

[ogradda]

8. no one will know what i vote, right?

[LincolnMcGrath]

17. Results will be posted tomorrow.

Or should I say "outed" tomorrow.

[Placebo]

[LincolnMcGrath]

26. Funny stuff!

[St. Jarvitude]

[LincolnMcGrath]

32. I mean it is funny. (HaHa)

Keep up the good work on the blog!

[DeepGreen]

19. believe it or not, I was 16 once

I can remember when I thought I had eternity before turning 30.
Damn, those were the days !!!
:bounce:

[LincolnMcGrath]

24. I remember when my mom turned 30

Seemed old as hell to me at the time. lol

[Dukakis88]

:beer:

[LincolnMcGrath]

22. Yea Baby!

BOOOYAAH!


Snore.....

[Hello_Kitty]

Too old to snap whippers but too young to geez (?)

[LincolnMcGrath]

30. Gen Xer?

[Hello_Kitty]

35. Absolutely. Born in '68.

I was a slacker before there was a name for it. Back when they just called you lazy. I had no idea I was a cultural pioneer. ;-)

[LincolnMcGrath]

37. Me Too!!!

http://www.stg.brown.edu/projects/1968/reference/timeline.html

[Hello_Kitty]

44. I didn't know Nixon and Humphrey were so close in that election.

That timeline is neat. Lotta stuff happened the year we were born, eh?

[LincolnMcGrath]

48. YEP!

They need to add the births of you and I to the list though! :7

[loudestchick]

66. We're a like fine wine...'68...a smooth finish

[LincolnMcGrath]

68. I'm gonna be in your hood next week!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x2041660

[DeepGreen]

27. Looks like we are kinda weak in some age groups

Kinda like to see it even out some.

Anyway, time for this old guy (in age but not in heart) to hit the sack.

Good Night Everyone,,,, hope you sleep well tonight!

:hi:

[fleabert]

31. I'd be happier to see more people of any age!

Looks like we are low in the higher bracket to me. I'd like an even representation.

[LincolnMcGrath]

39. There used to be some over 75 around DU

[TSIAS]

42. 20

Damn, I just missed out on being one of those ignorant teenagers referenced in earlier threads.

[LincolnMcGrath]

49. Damn the bad luck man!

Better luck next time!

[madrchsod]

45. i`m so old i remember when

clinton iowa was the place to go on friday and saturday nights......

[LincolnMcGrath]

47. PARKSIDE!!!

Cruising the Dike!!(It's a levee ladies!)

[madrchsod]

54. ok what was the name of the joint on 136 west of clinton?

getting high in the eagle point tower.....

[LincolnMcGrath]

57. How far west? Out by the old drive in?

Saw a young Sterling couple getting married in the tower a few weeks ago. If they only knew the things I did there with the high school girl friend! lol

[LincolnMcGrath]

52. kick

[Downtown Hound]

55. 28

[LincolnMcGrath]

63. Ah a Bicentennial Baby!

Born in 76' eh?

[Downtown Hound]

78. Yep

:)

[2cents]

58. "Officially"...

when does geezerdom begin?

[LincolnMcGrath]

61. That sounds like a second poll! lol

Not touching that one w/10" pole!

[SarahB]

60. 26-32

Barely at this point. :P

[LincolnMcGrath]

62. When is your next birthday?

:P

[SarahB]

73. February!

The lucky double threes.

Threes I said. :D

[LincolnMcGrath]

74. Your lucky double threes are perfect

[SarahB]

76. Oh sure...

If I had a nickel for everytime I heard that one. :D

[NamVetsWeeLass]

64. I decided that I am not going to add Years anymore....

so Instead I will add experience points... So, as New Year's Eve looms in My horizon, I shall be 30 with 4 years experience.

[LincolnMcGrath]

70. I did something similar! lol

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

[LincolnMcGrath]

[LincolnMcGrath]

72. kick

Only 4 are 18 and under?

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

75. Still 25.

I will be 26 in early April. My husband is 27. It's kind of weird to be grouped with 19 year olds while he's grouped with 30 year olds.

Oh well.
:)

[LincolnMcGrath]

80. You two still make a cute couple!

lol

[Runcible Spoon]

77. 24 y.o. whippersnapper checking in!

:bounce:

[RevolutionaryActs]

88. AH I know! Scary. nt

[progmom]

86. Oh - I am NOT happy with your age bracket breakdowns

See here. Many demographic surveys lump the 19-34s together and the 35-54s. Now you have me, at 33, lumped with people who are on the cusp of 40? I think not!

[LincolnMcGrath]

89. sorry ma'am!

:7

[lizzieforkerry]

87. I'm 29! I'll be 30 in 47 days.

I hope they are really long days!

[LincolnMcGrath]

90. Birthday right before X-mas?

bummer!

[lizzieforkerry]

92. right after! And yes, it does suck

My parents were pretty good about it when I was younger though!

[name not needed]
