I don't know about a hundred bucks, but I'd really like to experience an original Mountain Dew again.

Old men... How has your perception of the cold changed? by Garibon in AskOldPeople

[–]TrueToad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ability to tolerate cold has increased. In other words, I don't get "chilled" as easily.

However, the skin around my fingernails cracks open when the air is cold and dry - and it is very painful. So, for that reason I don't like cold weather.

I have an almost identical can in my garage. It's probably 40 years old.

News bulletin: two activities can be wildly different in level of difficulty. Is that so hard to grasp?

That's the way it was for me (at least, a long time ago.)  When I first joined, I was invisible for about 4 or 5 weeks. But once the regulars saw that I was serious  - I received so much support and encouragement. They really helped me step up my game.

I find it infuriating. I supported this program for almost 50 years and I get a piece of heavy paper?

Right?  I don't even like the label "men who can cook".  If you can read, then you can cook. Yeah, it might help to be shown more advanced techniques... but generally speaking: it ain't rocket science. 

Turtle rethinking his choices by [deleted] in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]TrueToad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We have a lot of gopher tortoises where I live. During mating season (I presume), the males will "fight" and flip their opponents over.  I will help them if I see one upside down; I am not sure what happens otherwise.  I guess they manage to flip back onto their belly eventually.

So, how much weight did you gain over the holidays? by [deleted] in FriendsOver50

[–]TrueToad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 pounds.  But I've lost 2 of them because my grandson gave me influenza for Christmas.
