Music: I Wish I Was Eighteen Again

Post by FlyTexas »

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'.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3c-WBn5cCg

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.
