James, you said you feel a touch decrepit not FOSSILIZED. Try to truly understand the leaps in antiquity between 32 & 40? No thanks. I believe I'd rather spend a soothing night letting Stephen Hawking's research on String theory wash over my fragile mind than enter into such lofty cerebral territories of comprehension. It's not how many grey hairs you have, only how old you truly are. I don't mean how old you FEEL. I mean literally, how old you ARE. FORTY!? James, you said you feel a touch decrepit not FOSSILIZED.

It’s not how many grey hairs you have, only how old you truly are. I don’t mean how old you FEEL. I mean literally, how old you ARE.

Distinguished! Yes, nothing says distinguished like sagging jowls and puttering absent mindedness. And I'm sure you have more sense than to tell your wife that gray makes a woman old! I know that one hell of a cold front would blow in if I even floated that notion in jest. :-p Ha! Distinguished! Yes, nothing says distinguished like sagging jowls and puttering absent mindedness.

You haven't even begun to feel time's cruel fingers gripping at your corpus (I'm told I haven't either, but that's debateable, as well). Besides, my wife tells me that greying hair makes a man look distinguished and (potentially) more handsome and sexy whereas it only makes women look old. At least, that what she tells me...
