1942 (I'm 64). Ptooey. There, I said it. Rather than a wannabe, I prefer to 
think
of myself as an IknowIcan. 
But not by myself. I am either waiting on my partner (heh heh) - age 80, up 
north
in San Carlos, caring for his mother (106), or am using him as the Greatest
Excuse in the World for not just upping and doing what I'm capable of, even 
if my
departure would cause some anxiety amongst family members and close friends.
Even tho aforementioned partner is a city boy, whose idea of roughing it is 
when
room service is tardy, I know he would follow my lead, and would actually
probably...catch on. 
In the meantime, I'm just wearing my little Miss Lurkalot outfit 24/7, and
picking the really keen brains of all fo you who are already living in the 
real
world.
If I remember correctly, the last time I got involved in a discussion here, it
was mostly with Bev, shortly after she returned (the Great
Benefits-and-Uses-of-Jello Debate) and it turned Gene off to the point that we
didn't hear from him for days and days.
Don't want to do that again.
