Why, shucks, I remember when I was 55, I . . .

The story is told of one of the British statesmen who was still in
office at
the age of 100. ... "Ah .. to be
seventy again!"

A similar thing is reported on this side of the pond:

At:
www.lawandeverythingelse.com/id55.htm

"...I've read a number of biographies of Justice Holmes and four or
five volumes of his letters. It was never a secret that he liked
burlesque, pretty women, and racy French novels. When he was eighty
and spotted a pretty woman, he said, "Ah, to be seventy again!" ... "

But you see, we do not have to be, um, out of action at merely seventy. It is reported that Hunzakut men and women produced offspring in their eighties.
