A little poem to share with all the guys that is perfect for this thread.

It use to be embarrassing
To the way it would behave,
As of every single morning
It would stand and watch me shave.

But as my old age approaches
It sure gives me the blues,
To see it hang it's little head
And watch me tie my shoes.

*Green, here's how the same poem was worded in the 1940s or earlier. My Dad was born before WW1 and he carried a copy in his wallet ...

Now I'm old and feeble,
my pilot light is out.
What used to be my sex appeal
is now my water spout.

I used to be embarrassed
to make the thing behave
cuz every single morning
it would stand and watch me shave.

But now I'm getting old
and it sure gives me the blues
to have that thing hang down my leg
and watch me shine my shoes!

I just want to cry every time I hear about Fire Emblem.

YKYGOW things start to click. My hips click sometimes. My jaw clicks on one side when I open my mouth wide. Which can be disconcerting in some, er, intimate situations.

Please excuse me for smiling broadly at your post. My knees creak and my neck makes grinding noises when I turn my head. I guess we both need oiling.

Guys you use to babysit start hitting on you.
