You never age. Thought I was gonna say, I love you, didn't ya?? ![]() We went out last night and ran into a guy I went to school with, that I haven't seen in years. We talked a bit, and he looked at me and said that. Seriously, for someone who is about to turn 48, I wanted to do this ---> lolJust had to share, made my day, week, month, year.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." |

I usually celebrate when I hear "Those look real!" My teeth, people, I'm talking about my teeth. I got veneers about 2 years ago. Love 'em. Sickos. Each and every one of you. Ellen, that's a huge compliment...I believe people "earn" their faces after awhile, more from their inner beauty...you just got confirmation from your dear pal that the goodness inside is seeping out! Yea!

I was thinking "anything you want" as in "you can have anything you want in the jewelry store". DH actually did take me to the jeweler one time and let me pick out my 10th anniversary gift and my 40th birthday gift at the same time. That was a fun afternoon! Ellen I can really relate to that! I recently saw my boss from my first job out of college. The last time I saw him, I was probably 25 and I am now 44. And this was at a pool party, so I was in a bathing suit no less! ![]() He told me several times that I looked exactly the same. Needless to say, he is my new favorite person!

Ellen - It is so nice to get such a compliment. I am sure that it is true. I find that it is difficult for people to hide their reactions to something like this so I'm sure that what was blurted out is true. What secrets do you have? Do you want to share them? [I'm all ears. ]============================ |

OTOH, I have noticed that our kids get older but we don't change! LOL! ![]() In early November I attended my 36th high school reunion [Yes, we missed the 35th but I did attend the 35th of the year I left to go to college [1970]. I am only 39, of course. I graduated early. ]. The funny thing is that I kept looking around at the people and kept asking myself "Who are all these old people and what are they doing at my reunion?" A few people had not changed a bit, some had vastly improved and others were unrecognizable - they looked like they should be their own parents! It is very interesting to see how things change as we get older.Sigh . . . if only we could go back to our youth knowing what we know now . . . ============================ |

Date: 12/8/2007 2:31:00 PM jas, what a sweet thing to say! Really. I don't know if it's true, but I'm buying it. Author: jas I usually celebrate when I hear 'Those look real!'

Ellen, that's a huge compliment...I believe people 'earn' their faces after awhile, more from their inner beauty...you just got confirmation from your dear pal that the goodness inside is seeping out! Yea! And I thought you were referring to your teeth the whole time. Honest. ![]() Joolskie, your post cracked me up. Thanks! ![]() Anastasia, isn't it just THE best feeling??! ![]() Al, on the Batman thing, please, get a grip. ![]() Diamant, thanks. Seriously, I have no secrets. And by all accounts, I should look like hell. Well, maybe that's stretching it a tad, but still.....It really has to be the genes. My mom looks fantastic (I think) for 81, and I think I take after her in this case. I'm laughing at the reunion thing. I know what you mean. Very interesting to see what people morph into... ![]() And about going back to our youth? Tell me about it.

Lol!!! Yes, very funny replies! Congrats, Ellen! I will say that last Tuesday night I ran into a very shy student I knew several years ago when I was teaching at the high school, and I went to speak to him. The first words out of his mouth were, "You look just the same." Obviously he would have had no reason to say that to flatter me, and I am not sure he would have had the social skills to know it was a good thing to say. So it meant a lot to me, too. (Plus, he was kind not to mention the extra 20 pounds that I have put on since I was last with him! )

As one 48yr old to another -- CONGRATULATIONS! (on being 'ageless') I went to a 50yr anniversary this Sat of a business I worked at for 15 years. Over the years there, many people came and went; some retired. I had trouble recognizing some people 'cause they looked ancient! But no one had difficulty recognizing me, so I'm hoping I haven't changed much either! My former supervisor lookes fabulous still and she's 20 years older than I. She is my role model! _____________________________ |
