COT:

Age is only a number. The men in this group are a true sign of that. Just look at our numbers for those who are 50+.
When I was younger, someone who was in their 50s I always saw as not doing much and looking like they have been worn down by a life. With the way times have changed, and the lack of retirement packages offered up by the businesses that we all work for, it is forcing us to remain in the workforce, remain active, and keep as busy as when we were younger. An example is my mother-in-law who is in her mid 70s, but she is constantly on the go, constantly working constantly making it out to as many of her grandchildren‘s events as she can.
Age is just a number, we can’t let that number define who we are.Today’s Q was not only a birthday nod to @Shugah but a thank you from me. For 4+ years he’s inspired me out here. I’ll try and do the work next to him to see where I stand. I’ve been able to bounce Q ideas off of him or just get in discussions about out kids or music. I wanted to honor him with a great beatdown. Thanks Mike and happy birthday
