This one made me smile. Been there, done that. As have so many of us who have reached those Senior Status years.

Senior citizen at 55? I thought middle age was 45 to 65. How did it get to be a senior at 55?

As for utilities, I am 73 and I'm still waiting for them to offer something of a discount. I think I wait in vain.

If you want to be courted, just click on the "yes" circle. I did that years ago when other computer buddies just laughed at all my strange offers. Good deals on cruises, discounts galore, even saving money on certain male drugstore items! Were they kidding? Really got a kick out of your "early bird" dining offer. I'd love to know what the $4 menu offered you and your guests. Hilarious. BTW - HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, VERONICA...Kathe

Veronica, that was a humorous and yet true article you wrote about hitting those magic numbers. There's no getting around it... someone out there is spreading information about our age all over the world! Isn't anything private anymore? Great story, thank you.
