Music: I Wish I Was Eighteen Again

Today (29 May) marks the begining of my 52nd trip around the Sun (I like to think of age as distance instead of time) and while clicking around on YouTube I came across this video. American entertainer George Burns singing 'I Wish I Was Eighteen Again'.

Ok, how many of us wish we were eighteen again? As for me, I rather be a 51 yr old with an 18 yr old body. :lol: What say you?

Take 18 off me and I'll nearly be your age :'( but I do feel like an 18yr old;
blonde, brunette... I'm not fussy.

I'm on my 53rd trip round and given the failures in this one the body of an 18 yr old would be good. Thing is, I can't remember where I buried the cheeky little b******d.

I always liked Charles Schulz's take on it.

You're a sneak Brian!
C'mon, put up your D.O.B. and some juicy details on your profile!
Many Happy Returns. :thumbsup: If you'd like to watch the Earth as it turns on its axis in its orbit of the Sun, there's a freeware "launcher" version of Redshift
I had the Windows 3.1 version, and recently bought the "compact" download. The night sky fascinates me, I could lay in the long grass with a beautiful woman, looking at it for hours.

On the subject of aging, I just received a link to a song which includes something like:

I went to the doctor to tell him about my memory failing.
"How long have you had this problem?"
"What problem, and what am I doing here?"

Thanks very much for the birthday wishes everyone. :) Had a fairly nice birthday. Thanks for the reminder about the birthdate setting, Dave. It's now been updated.
