Just heard on the radio this morning: Sammy Hagar recently turned 60.
Yes, folks, the Red Rocker is only a couple years away from collecting on Social Security. He's been eligible for membership in AARP for 10* years now.
How much longer before we see Sammy doing commericals for Depends and dental adhesive?
Apparently, now he can't drive 55 because his turn signal's still on...
(EDIT: Good catch, Hunter)

Actually, AARP lets you in the secret handshake clubhouse at fifty.
As in NEXT month for me.
Sigh.
Fifty? FIFTY?
*gulp*
I used to think 50 was o-l-d, man. Like, with a capital "O".
Nowadays, it doesn't seem quite so old. Especially when I consider that I'm significantly closer to 50 than 18...
Times have definitely changed. Used to be that fifty looked REALLY old, whereas nowadays people much older look pretty darn good (Sammy, Stallone, Bob "I'm 55" Costas", Arnold) by comparison. Heck, Raquel Welch is still a MILF. I think it can be chalked up to smoking, whereas 30 years ago almost everyone smoked & their faces looked like cheap leather by the age of 45 & nowadays people who are 60 look like what used to be 40.
Yes, Jay, you just knew I'd be stopping by this one. :)
What gets me is when I see pro athletes that I followed while they were in college who are inducted into their respective professional halls of fame. Heck, I remember when Michael Jordan was a highly touted high-schooler with a 44 inch vertical.
Posted by Ricky, who is less than 9 years and two months from turning 50. Ah, heck, they don't let you start making the 'real' money until you're forty, so life is actually getting better (or so the Germans would have us believe).
