Re: How old are you?

I've just realised, much to my great amusement, that I got my own age wrong, I'm actually 27. It's sad that I only noticed after I read shapenaji's post and thought "wait a minute, that's how old I am, I'm certain I said 28" :P

FWIW, I will be 28 in ten days, but still ...

My handle contains my year of birth. So there, gonna be 30 in a month's time.

I often feel old because I tire very easily. But when I look at fashion these days, I wish I am 5 to 10 years younger.

I'm 24, and I plan on feeling better than I do now by the time I turn 25.

I'm 18 years old, extremely handsome, currently dating Jennifer Love Hewitt, Go Seigen's 2nd love child, and my avatar is not photoshopped.

I am 38. How old I feel varies too much with the time of the day, current activity, whom I am chatting with, how many beers I had drunk so far, etc.

Life always has its rhythm (if not misspelled), thus my motto is: everything is timekeeping.

28, and feeling like that's about right. My wife will be giving birth to our twins sometime in the next six weeks, so I anticipate feeling about ninety by this time next year. :)

18, feel about that. Hurt my knee several months ago at a concert in Austin(Tx). I now have a 40 year old's knee, according to my doctor. It really feels less achey-and-middle-aged than whiney-and-teenaged (that's what ya get, kid!), but who knows.

But if it happened to you when you were 40, you'd have a 60-year-old's knee.

31. That seems about right, though I'm as fit as I was at 20 and the same weight with no health problems at all. Just none of the teenage angst etc :D

Wow, I never thought I was one of the absolute youngest on here, being only 18.
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

I hope to be 58 before DrStraw.
