I noticed today, for the first time, I have gray whiskers

I guess this means I'm officially old.

1. You noticed your cat for the first time?

Seriously, cheer up, it means no such thing.

2. thanks!

I got pretty freaked out for awhile, though. I was sitting in the car waiting for someone. I happened to glance up at the rearview mirror and saw some gray hair on my chin. Damn, I wasn't expecting that. Now those "Just For Men" commercials are going to annoy me more than ever.

5. You're becoming distinguished

A spot of grey on a man is attractive.

Edited on Wed Mar-03-04 04:33 AM by neoteric lefty

now on Spike TV and who used to be on Talk Soup (i think). John Henson is his name.

The one on the left. It looks like someone in white car had a fenderbender with the right side of his head.

3. Welcome to the club...............

just keep singing "A Touch Of Grey" by the Dead, you WILL get by! It's no biggie, it's another right of passage, just like noticing your first pubic hair. Dude, we ALL get older, accept it.

10. No, it means we are in year three of the

Supreme Court sponsored Bush coup. Your body is reacting accordingly.
