Wow, another 8 months since my last BLOG. I guess I haven't gotten the hang of this like some folks on 2o2p who can find things to record on almost a daily basis.

Since the last BLOG, I've managed to get a year older (now 64) and in honor of that, I posted the following in our clan threads:

April 1st was my birthday and yes I've heard (almost) all the jokes and comments about it being April Fools Day. But in honor of the occasion, here is one of the greatest songs ever, at least that fits the day. The only problem for me is that it isn't in my future, but in my present!

When I'm Sixty-Four
Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
When I get older losing my hair
many years from now
will you still be sending me a valentine
birthday greeting, bottle of wine
If I'd been out till quarter to three
would you lock the door
Will you still need me
Will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you

I could be handy mending a fuse
when your light have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings, go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more
Will you still need me
Will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

Every summer we can rent a cottage on the
Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck, and Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line
stating point of view
indicate precisely what you mean to say
yours sincerely wasting away
Give me your answer fill in a form
mine forever more
Will you still need me
Will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
