Our friend Bill (AKA Coach) sent Ken this video, and I thought it was so neat. We're all aging, and I think this points out quite nicely that we cannot afford to ignore our elders. Before I put up the video, that reminds me of a "Sopranos" episode the other night. Tony was talking about how all the older relatives and family members were dying, so Tony and his bunch are the elders now. That gave me quite a shiver, because the same thing is happening in my family...many of my elderly relatives--my aunts and uncles that were so much a part of my childhood--are no longer with us, and it's pretty sobering to think that I am an "elder" to so many of my young cousins, second- and third-removed. Weird...I don't feel like an elder! Okay, here's the video (the tribute to The Who is obvious, but can you spot The Beatles reference?):

Ha-Ha-I loved that-yes,you are right,but when did we get old-one day I looked in the mirror and didn't see ME looking back-it was some old person-----funny inside I am still me-a fun loving kid...now don't tell me I have to start acting my age-ain't gonna happen.......
Believe me, SLF, I'll be the last one to tell you to "act your age!" Thanks for reading, and thanks for the comment--glad you liked the video!
