"What A Drag It Is Getting Old"


Listen Later

I turned 60 years old yesterday, and I gotta tell ya, I don’t feel it.
It’s been said that Gen X is the generation that became 30 at the age of 15, and is still 30 at 50.
I felt that at 50.
I still feel it today at 60.
Guess there’s only one thing to do……
go grab your board, and join me…….
I brought tunes!
