Who's the oldest person in DU?

[Bluzmann57]

The reason I asked this is because my sister and I just bought our parents a computer and I mentioned DU to them. My dad said he logged on to DU and he sorta likes it, although he's not a member. Hes 73 and mom is 70. Dad is a bit more conservative than me, although he shares the belief that BUSH MUST GO! So if there are any seniors in here, speak up and be proud! We love ya!

1. There is no age on the internet. Your parents can choose the age they like

and change it to fit the weather, their mood, or both.

[Bluzmann57]

2. Right

and I'm an international playboy too. Hope the wife doesn't find out.

[DuctapeFatwa]

3. Smart thinking. Since she is an 18 year old blonde millionaire supermodel

she would naturally be drawn to an international playboy like yourself, and your online life doesn't need that kind of complication!
:D

4. I am almost twenty-NINE!

I am OLD.

[trof]

5. Been done. I'm 62

and not the oldest here.

[Bluzmann57]

6. Good for you

Hope I make it 62. Wasn't aware it had been done. Still good to see people of any age get turned on to DU.

8. Didn't mean to scold.

;-)
180 has me beat by a few years and he's still not the oldest.
Can't remember who holds the title.
Sign of age?
2 biggest problems with geezers (like me) and computers:
1. Never learned to type. Not even 2-finger like I'm whipping it out now.
2. Scared sh*tless they'll hit a wrong key/button and the whole damn thing will explode.

You CAN learn to type.
Make them understand that there's almost nothing you can do by a mouseclick or keystroke that will bring on the end of the world as we know it.

Good luck to them.
Hope to see them around here.
:hi:

7. Who was the guy who past on last year?

His son was posting here for awhile. My memory is failing me....

[kskiska]

10. Something like nomorejunkmail

He was in his 80s, I think. I haven't seen anything from his son in a long time.

[zx22778a]

11. Nojunkmail aka Junk n/t

[Pale Blue Dot]

He was a nice guy. His son seemed nice, too.

TELL YOUR DAD TO JOIN US. Who cares how old we are? WE CARE ABOUT DEMOCRACY. Age has nothing to do with it!!!

[alwynsw]

16. Weren't you there for the introduction of dirt?

I'm sure I saw you in the crowd.

[Skittles]

22. I used to put a matches under my 8 track deck in my car

that about says it all. :o

[SmileyBoy]

18. There was a guy, "alljunkmail", who died last year. He was in his 80's.

I think there might be a few 70-80 year-olds.

My father is 62 and he lurks these boards sometimes.

(Sorry for divulging your age, Dad.:))

[Hubert Flottz]

19. I'm very young for my age!

It's because I was born so young I guess!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

20. On the internet, I think everyone is my age, for some reason.

I never think about age. I just think about intelligence and wisdom. Your parents should join, and they can talk about things and feel young again. And no one ever has to know they aren't as young as they used to be. But there was one thing my grandmother taught me that I will never forget. "Most people stop aging at around 23. And let me tell you, there are a lot of 23 year olds wondering around here wondering what the hell happened." You're only as old as you feel. I'm 24, by the way.
