And so you should take it all back....
As for Cronos being :dead: , he's not dead in my imagination. There are no rules to say that just because that bunch of SG1 creeps killed him, he has to stay dead. I have resurrected him for my novel.....so there!!!!!!
Also, time has a way of creeping up on you.... so all of you young 'uns had better watch out, you'll be as old as me before you realise it!

Oh dear........ well TG I am 50 and how old jsc is I don't know. But you know, I certainly don't feel old. I have no wrinkles, very little grey hair (in fact my hair is blonde) and am very active ( in ALL areas.. I travel around the world, go to the gym, hold down a professional occupation and - horror of horrors..... I even have BOYFRIENDS!
Now THERE'S a scary thought huh? An oldie who does the same things as a young un!!! You're only as young as you feel..... and I don't feel all that much different to the way I did when I was 18.
:naughty: :naughty:

:naughty: :naughty:Hee hee......... Amen to that!
I'm 50 and I'm proud of it. I may feel like I did when I was 18, but I sure wouldn't want to be 18 again. I love being who I am, a mature experienced and confident lady.... I like who I am!
:rolly2: :rolly2:
As for exams! Well, actually I did a university degree when I was 40, graduated at 43 and am now constantly upgrading my Data Communications and Computer Networking qualification......which means..... yes!
Exams!
Of course, this is by MY choice.
Power to the oldies! That's what I say!
Champagne, jewellery etc sounds nice too!
:laugh: :laugh:

LOL LOL.......
Now there's a thought. What could we youth deprived, haggard old creatures with zimmer frames possibly have that a delightful, youthful creature would want?
So... Serena if you want to be put in my will, you'd better get your shout in before my two sons get it all!
Ha ha ha ha ha........
Aren't we off the topic a bit???

:laugh2: :laugh2:I think you'll find TG, that there are quite a few more mature students than you might imagine. when I did my degree, there was a chap of about 70 doing his first degree. He was younger and more full of get up and go than some of the 18 yr olds.
To be a bit serious though, the word 'old' has gathered up some terrible connotations to it. Everyone bandies that word around as though it was a terrible insult. We are a very age-ist society. There seems to be the idea that unless you are young (and these days this can mean under 30) or beautiful (getting back on the 'ugly' track slightly!) you can't be worth much.
Instead of using the word 'old' why not use the word 'mature'? And instead of people condeming someone because of the way they look, why not get beyond the common notion of beauty and see who a person really is? Perhaps this world would be a nicer place if we didn't condemn someone out of hand for the surface and fickle expectations our very prejudiced society has about what we should be or look like. These are societal constructs bolstered up by a media that wants to make money.
Mature (aka old) people have a great deal of experience in the world and a lot to offer, talk to an elderly person some time and you might find that some of the things they have done in their lives will knock your socks off!
PS Serena..... My sons say that you can be in on the will as long as you understand that £10 (10 British pounds sterling sort of equivalent to about $7 US Dollars for those who are confused) won't go very far!
The cheeky little blighters! I have a horrible fate in store for them!
