As an old fart, first class! ;-) It's taken me near 73 years to reach my
"first class" standing and I don't intend on sitting around even thinking
about it. A harmless old codger? Screw that! Hell, life's way toooo short to
start worrying now. :-) Get out kick some ass and get on with whatever is
the best of the day for each one of us! :-)

I have one thing I look forward to every morning, that's to be vertical and
breathing and as long as that happens and I can hold a Leica for part of the
day while involved in taking pictures, every day is going to be a great day
for this old fart! hell it's only a number anyhow! ;-) Harmless old codger
be damned! :-)

It's attitude man, attitude! Think young even if your sitting there
wondering if you're going to make it to lunch time and wishing maybe you
wouldn't!! Forget it, kick ass with attitude, no matter how hard that maybe
some days, just don't given in until you're horizontal and non-breathing !
Even then go with attitude that you're going to make one more kick at the
can, try kicking the lid off the coffin!

Scare the hell out of everyone and make a grand finale! :-)
