Wow, those old guys must have been much tougher than today's youth and young adults!
I loved your stories, and will withhold many similar ones of my own. Other than having made a much better choice of lifetime partner, my stories are much like yours, and I have some others involving cleaning a pesticide spray tank from the inside, climbing trees, bicycle mishaps, etc. And I'm just getting ready to go out for the "running of the bulls" (long story, but it involves "pit", and I get about 15 miles per week).
So, when did *I* become one of the "old __s"?!?
