I still resist it by dying my hair and beard, lying on the age forms when I ride public transport here in the Philippines. It's really sweet of Katana to lie about our aging so nicely but we do know better, don't we? Let's hope the next half century will be a good to us as the first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18348841.post-25829735025373404342007-06-23T03:51:00.000+10:002007-06-23T03:51:00.000+10:00ahaha!

My GOD! He's 22 and STILL has a hard tummy? I'm sorry. Its hard not to be sarcastic when you feed me lines like that.

Sean Connery, Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, and Pierce Brosnan all look good in old age, while women have a problem staying on the charts past their 20's. A woman's downhill starts A LOT sooner than a man's! Shoot, my husbands 22, and STILL has six pack abs, and looks better than he did at 18. I'm quite the opposite! I lost my abs at 18.... bah! I need to go for a run.KAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03090582170365523716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18348841.post-16831883252333983872007-06-23T03:10:00.000+10:002007-06-23T03:10:00.000+10:00Care to trade ages Katana?

I, and all of us foreigners, hear that malarkey all the time from Filipinas over here. Some of my idiot buddies actually believe it! I should add that little Filipina idiosyncrasy to my list of "things I LOVE about the Philippines!"PhilippinesPhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15921214743105919057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18348841.post-8156118533367821962007-06-23T03:04:00.000+10:002007-06-23T03:04:00.000+10:00Wow, I wish I could have been as serene as you - w...Wow, I wish I could have been as serene as you - when I turned twenty I had a crisis. i got commissioned, married, sawa n end of an era for myself... I still have to sort out my feelings about my age, since I'm at an "abyss" where I have too many options and no compass to guide me. Then again, i suppose it's different for women, we only get old from our teens, as opposed to men who look better asKAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03090582170365523716noreply@blogger.com
