The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.
Everybody just keeps getting older... unless they die...
Have I just realised this recently? No. But just recently it seems to preoccupy me to an extent that is becoming unhealthy.
Please try an occasional post about somebody who has got younger, could you? Surely you can come up with something? I suppose I could concentrate on getting a younger attitude and forget about the number of years (but the attitude is getting older too, I fear).
Or how about "John Cale is only 70"? That might help.

ReplyDeleteThat said it warms my heart that we're still crazy and rockin' after all these years. So much for rock 'n roll being a fad. LOL
It warms my heart to see some of my favourite artists still going strong in their 60s and 70s. It gives me hope!
