Not sure.
Psychologically 6 (I get along real well with little kids)
Emotionally 16 (you know how up and down teenagers are)
Physically about 40 (I can still outwork most of them)
Chronically (I've heard all my life that the Gregorian calendar is wrong. If so, then who can tell)
Looking forward to my 81st New Year party tonight (with my wife)

Looks like the people between 41 and 50 come to their senses and get out of the business.

Then start up again in a few years when they can't pay their bills  ;D

Yesterday we had record high temps (70), and being one of the 8 in the last catagory really had an impact on me....I got complemented on my alligator shoes.....only problem was, I was barefoot at the time.
Grant me the ability to change the things I can, the strength to accept the things I cannot and the wisdom to recognize the difference.
