Subject: RE: BS: Grumpy ol' folkies
How about the young'uns?
It's all very well being OLD and grumpy, you spend your life working your butt off to get this wealth of experience. You try to pass nuggets of this condensed wisdom to the "less experienced" members only to be called an old fart... or worse!! Where is the gratitude eh? Do these young whippersnappers realize how hard we had it? Do they care? Will they be contributing to MY pension when I retire after a lifetime of hard graft? I've paid my dues ... I've earned the right to BE grumpy ..... it's taken a lifetime to achieve this level of grumpiness, why should I waste it now?
OH O.K. THEN!!!
