Opdyke is more than 63 isn't he?

 

I and a few others (like Bill Coe) aren't far behind him. Losing Jim Anglin particularly touched a nerve in that regard (other than him being just a stellar human) as we were the same age - 55. He had half jokingly proposed we do the NIAD and try for the combined age record at 110 as he felt we both moved pretty fast. I had to let him down gently by informing him I generally suck at obligatory Valley jamming. I had so looked forward to the possibility of getting on a wall with him and now that time has past.

 

Pink, dude, you're my new great wall hope now...

 

I feel your pain...I have a PM in my box with an open invite for a Jim Guided tour of Menagerie when my feet are better. GAWD i hate having missed that opportunity.

If your definition of old begins at 50, there's a stack of people here who are either almost there or a little over the line. Myself included, though I'll have to wait until July to qualify.

 

As an aside, that's a nice signature modification Bug, but I've read some of your stories, and it sounds like you've always been skanky. Not that that's a bad thing...
