F, 38...

So, again someone asks the stats question:

When this thread started 2 1/2 years ago, the M's were in a large majority... has that majority gotten any smaller? And have we got any more young-ish members?

Joe O, I was about to post a chiding, puzzled query re the fact that you just got married (didn't you?)--until I noticed that this thread dates back to 1999!

M 74 which puts me in second place -- again, I think. Hope that Jet is still around to claim the prize though I haven't seen him posting lately.

I also note that a number of the names I assumed were female identify themselves as M -- hmmm.

Ya' know, when we first started this thread, it was back in the dark ages where we often gave out almost no personal info. This was one of the boilerplate threads we ran that led to a lot more open community. A lot of us didn't post at first to it and then only after a few months. Things have changed................

Anyway, I'm lucky to be about 3 and a half years older than when we first ran this turkey.

Spaw .... male, age about to be 53

Roughly 25 (old enough to know better but young enough to try it again) trapped in a 71 year old body (as of next month).

Over the hill? What hill? I don't remember any hill!!??

Interesting thread

I'm probably just below the mean average (allowing for the offset of 3 1/2 years since the start of the thread) at 43 this year

Well, I, for one, do not need to hide behind a nonce nickname like "M35" or "F53". I yam what I yam.

I am male. And I am 71 and about a half. My Beautiful Child-Bride Wife doesn't like me to admit to that, because people make inferences as to her age, but then it is true that she's younger than I. (By about a month).

had to look at this--'cause i responded to it last year as i was staying at my dad's house for the night and he showed me mudcat...unfortunately i didn't have a computer between then and now and i thought it was crazy that now that i visit almost everyday, it came back again---good memories!!!

but here's a funny little birthday story --- when i turned 20,every member of my family sent me a card saying happy 21st (including my mother)....that night , i was playing out a bar that i play regularly and i had told my older brother that i was playing out at this bar, so he sent a letter to the bar telling them that it was my 21st and with $$ for a few drinks. so when the owners came out with a cake and asked me what i wanted my first legal drink to be... i could not tell a lie :) i had to tell everyone that it was really my 20th b-day...and everyone in the place passed around the cards that my whole familiy had sent me with the wrong age and we laughed.

(you'd think after 20 years they'd figure it out)

Turned 50 on Christmas Eve. I'm telling anyone (who wants to listen!) that I'm starting the second half of my life!! Too many things to do, places to see and songs to sing in only 50 years.

I'm with you Kat - my sentiments exactly.

Hey! How come CATSPAW49 is 50?? Shouldn't he now be CATSPAW50?? And as for the statisticions (sp?) Roger, PeteM and Susan of DT..... you really need to get out more :)

55, M, born when FDR was still President. (In those days women were wold not to get up for 3 weeks after delivery. . . my mother, who had lived in Washington DC until moving to Philadelphia in 1941, was DETERMINED to get downstairs and vote for FDR. She did, carried by precinct workers in a stretcher.)
