Anyone else pushing half a century
September 12, 2011 8:14 pm at 8:14 pm #810372a maminParticipantReba: Do you actually expect us to give a way our age?????
September 12, 2011 8:19 pm at 8:19 pm #810373gavra_at_workParticipantThere are many.
September 12, 2011 8:20 pm at 8:20 pm #810374rebaParticipantAre you going to leave me to do this by myself???????????
September 12, 2011 8:28 pm at 8:28 pm #810375bein_hasdorimParticipantI believe Minyangal has said to be in your neighborhood.
September 12, 2011 8:31 pm at 8:31 pm #810376rebaParticipantIs that a subtle way of saying she is close to my age? Are you volunteering someone else’s age for them?
September 12, 2011 8:31 pm at 8:31 pm #810377givingitagoMemberMore than you think…..
September 12, 2011 8:34 pm at 8:34 pm #810378always hereParticipantI always thought that I was the oldest female posting here, but in another thread Minyangal mentioned her age so I’m not telling any tales outta school.
I’m 60 B’H ka’h 😀 ….(this past Tammuz)
September 12, 2011 8:37 pm at 8:37 pm #810379methinksMemberb_h-I like the way you phrased that! I think oomis has also said “to be in your neighborhood”…
September 12, 2011 8:42 pm at 8:42 pm #810380rebaParticipantYeah!!! Let’s hear it for age and experience……………..and fun!!!
September 12, 2011 8:44 pm at 8:44 pm #810381chanieMemberToday’s 50 is like 20 years ago 40. My father-in-law who is in his early 70’s tells us from time to time how he feels like he is getting old. I tell him, “Tatty, you are middle age”. My husband always replies to me afterward, “70 is middle age? What is he, a tree”? My husband who turned 50 a few months says, it actually hit him that he is no longer in his 40’s. ?? ??? ?????? ???.
September 12, 2011 8:56 pm at 8:56 pm #810382rebaParticipantEach new age comes with so much more experience. It opens up new worlds. I really enjoy being my age and am looking forward to a lot more ages.
September 12, 2011 9:33 pm at 9:33 pm #810383bein_hasdorimParticipantreba; Omein! Yeah I thought is was subtle.
Me thinks that “methinks” agrees. Thanks methinks!
I hope that doesn’t sound confusing.
September 12, 2011 9:34 pm at 9:34 pm #810384bptParticipantSince you asked (and I can never answer a question normally), try this and see how old you really are!
Google preventdisease.com and take the quiz to see how your lifstyle impacts your life expectancy.
I tried it once by choosing all the bad choices(Overweight, poor diet, no exercise, ect.)It added 5 years to my actual age, and projected a probable demise at around 71.
Then I recalculated the quiz with my real lifestyle, and came up with MUCH more encouaging results.
So, regardless what the calendar tells you, if you are as healthy as a teenager, you are ahead of those 10 years your junior if the yougsters cannot keep up with you.
September 12, 2011 9:46 pm at 9:46 pm #810385nmamaMemberalmost 60, BH, ad mayah v’esrim
September 12, 2011 9:51 pm at 9:51 pm #810386methinksMemberb_h: I think I got it!
Your welcome 🙂
September 12, 2011 9:55 pm at 9:55 pm #810387ImaofthreeParticipantforty nine, Boruch Hashem.
September 12, 2011 10:21 pm at 10:21 pm #810388oomisParticipantSorry, but I am older than you (come to think of it, why should I be SORRY???? B”H I got this far)
September 12, 2011 10:53 pm at 10:53 pm #810389gefenParticipantBPT – i just went on that website and took the test. choices of answers could have been better. sometimes i wasn’t really sure how to answer ie: if they had another choice, i would have picked it. did you feel the same way?
anyway, it did tell me i am about 3 yrs younger than i really am and life expectancy is 84.
but i’m still not telling anyone here my real age 😉
September 12, 2011 11:54 pm at 11:54 pm #810390gr82bagrandmaMemberI’m almost 61
September 13, 2011 12:23 am at 12:23 am #810391aries2756ParticipantPersonally, I don’t believe it is anyone’s business. If you want to tell people your age, that is your choice but it is not nice to ask others to comply.
September 13, 2011 2:38 am at 2:38 am #810392Abba bar AristotleParticipantWhy do you think that 50 is “old”?
September 13, 2011 2:49 am at 2:49 am #810393metrodriverMemberAbba bar Aristotle; If your moniker is your true Pedigree, then adding a Zero will only make you one Quarter of the True Chronological age.
September 13, 2011 3:19 am at 3:19 am #810394Abba bar AristotleParticipant“Permission has been given to every human being, if he wants he can turn onto the road of Am’Ho’aretz’os and be a Am’Ho’Aretz like Aristotle”. [sort of the Rambam Hilchos Teshuva(5:1-2)]
September 13, 2011 3:21 am at 3:21 am #810395Abba bar AristotleParticipantAlthough it should be said that Aristotle was mi’gayer bisof yomov and retracted all of his books of apikorsus.
It should also be noted that Aristotle was really Jewish – from shevet Dan – he just didn’t know it.
September 13, 2011 3:27 am at 3:27 am #810396farrockgrandmaParticipantNote the name. I’ll admit to being middle-aged.
September 13, 2011 8:34 am at 8:34 am #810397rebaParticipantWhat is wrong with asking others to comply. Noone has to respond if they don’t want to.
September 13, 2011 9:02 am at 9:02 am #810398twistedParticipantgrandfather of three. The color in my beard is putting up quite a fight, but loosing to the silver.
September 13, 2011 12:38 pm at 12:38 pm #810399Raphael KaufmanMemberReba, you’re not even close. I’m pushing 70
September 13, 2011 6:22 pm at 6:22 pm #810400rebaParticipantThat’s wonderful. May we all have many many more healthy years until moshiach!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 13, 2011 6:28 pm at 6:28 pm #810401adorableParticipantyou guys can be my grandparents!
September 13, 2011 6:31 pm at 6:31 pm #810402bptParticipant“but it is not nice to ask others to comply.”
Oh, thats what all the 26 year olds say!
September 13, 2011 6:36 pm at 6:36 pm #810403adorableParticipantmods can you change the title to CR not CF? thanks. Im not sure why but its making me nuts….
September 13, 2011 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm #810404kapustaParticipantmods can you change the title to CR not CF? thanks. Im not sure why but its making me nuts….
Any other requests?
September 13, 2011 7:40 pm at 7:40 pm #810405aries2756Participantbpt, ok, you got me. My oldest is 34 and yes I’m a bubby b”h. That is all I’m saying. YOU guys figure it out.
September 13, 2011 8:02 pm at 8:02 pm #810406minyan galMemberRaphael K, we are of the same era. To those that thought I was in the fiftyish age group, I thank you very much – that was quite some time ago. My next “major” birthday (although I consider them all pretty major since my cardiac arrest) will be when I reach “three score year and ten”. I have been thinking of how some men celebrate the 70th anniversary of their Bar Mitzvah at age 83 by repeating their Haftorah (the second Bar Mitzvah). I think this a lovely idea and certainly a reason to celebrate, but I have been wondering why men don’t do this at age 70, as well.
September 14, 2011 1:31 am at 1:31 am #810407cinderellaParticipantImaofthree- r u my mother?
September 14, 2011 2:57 am at 2:57 am #810408BSDMemberciderella- r u my sister?
September 14, 2011 6:00 pm at 6:00 pm #810409adorableParticipantlol jewish geography again! we have one family here- now there’s another!
September 15, 2011 4:05 pm at 4:05 pm #810410rabbiofberlinParticipantactually, I am 96 and still going strong….well, if the Almighty gives me years !
September 15, 2011 4:12 pm at 4:12 pm #810411TumsMember96?
September 15, 2011 4:12 pm at 4:12 pm #810412am yisrael chaiParticipantrabbiofberlin
Impressive! SO what do you attribute to your incredible longevity, besides obviously Hashem
September 15, 2011 4:45 pm at 4:45 pm #810413ronrsrMembernot dying. that is the key to longevity.
People who don’t die early have many more birthdays than those who do. It’s a proven fact.
September 15, 2011 8:03 pm at 8:03 pm #810414TumsMemberWas 96 a typo?
September 16, 2011 2:33 am at 2:33 am #810416am yisrael chaiParticipantronrsr
LOL!!!! I mean really OL!!!!!
September 16, 2011 4:31 pm at 4:31 pm #810417squeakParticipantAries2756, I dont get why you are being so coy about it. We all know your exact age already, you gave it away right when you got here.
September 18, 2011 4:20 am at 4:20 am #810418therealmgamaMemberIf you smoke till 120 you’ll live long.
September 18, 2011 5:22 am at 5:22 am #810419ronrsrMemberI pushed 50 many years ago.
