Thoughts on aging.

As I get older, personal change isn't really that noticeable. It's not like you wake up one morning look in the mirror and exlaim: "Fuck I'm old !" But when you start thinking about how great things were 20 years ago and all the stupid crap you got away with and lived through up to this point, it really starts to hit home.

Most of the crazy stuff has stopped. wild women, fast driving, heavy drinking.

It's good to play it safe nowadays because I'm no longer indestructible.


I started working young. After killing myself for several years. I got cynical about the business world and went from idological :

AGE 17
Stockboy to CEO through hard work and determination!

AGE 35

Nobody gives a bleeding rats ass how hard you work cause they are going to hire their, bi-polar alcoholic brother in law to be your boss no matter how qualified and dedicated you are.

Thats part of getting old. Knowing for a fact that shit sucks, people are raging hemmoroidal assholes and the only way to realistically pull yourself out is to work for yourself.

Each day I find myself sounding more and more like Archie Bunker. I'ts amazing how they could channel such wisdom through a foil of a TV character.

I think I started off young dumb and liberal..I thought laws made things better and bad people could be rehabilitated. Hoo whee! What a load of bullshit. As I grew up I found that people don't change unless you point a gun to their head, they get cancer or some other cataclysmic experience in their life. Now I'm a hard core Libertarian anarchistic, conservative.


These days I see kids riding their skateboards down the street with their pants falling down and find myself wanting to smack them for being punk ass.

Hell! the frigging oldies station is playing Heavy Metal..WTF is up with that?

Oh well screw it! I still have my Shiner Bock and Spongebob to make it all better.

I think my bosses were undiagnosed.
