Biden Would End His Second Term at 86. What Could That Mean for His Brain and Body?
If you haven't enjoyed the late 80s bide your time, the best is yet to come, here to tell you those younger will ignore you, jostle you, offer their seat, provide you with tender medical care sauced with a bit of surprise that your withered carcass is holding up better than expected. Even do double takes at your cutting edge humor at their inexperience at mano a mano condescending combat with what they thought was a doddering old fool who fights dirty dancing, against expectations that the aged mind and emotions are not up to snuff.
Youngsters below octo-whatever got to give a think about their prejudice and know-it-allism toward oldsters aiming at lifetimes of turtles and whales and insects and pyramids in the jungles and deserts.
Super old is superlative for no longer being subjected to carrying easy loads of mere maturity wherein the faculties are declining from peakhood into senility of confused memory supplanting razor-sharp imagination.
Inside the ancient temples of 80-plus is a depthless reservoir of chicanery, duplicity, cupidity, generosity, avarice, affectation, lop-sided jokery, defiance of actuarial tables, so beware of being taken for a ride to the outside of healthiness and mental acuity, where conquerable disease and tomfoolery prevail.
Belafonte made it to 96, doing good, taking no Justice Thomas bribery. Singing, dancing, keeping his head and heart on target, foregoing the disabling drugs of rebellious youth and middle aged.
Way to go, Harry.
