If I was ten years younger I'd still be OLD------but there's a silver lining to being considered old----you can flirt with every woman you meet and since they consider you harmless they'll flirt back!! It's more fun than you realize. Why, just last year I was hauled into court on a rape charge and the judge reduced it to assault with a dead weapon!
You have a ways to go to catch up with John Monnett, Sr. He's 94 now, I think, give or take a year. His son John is the designer of the Sonex, Sonerai, Moni, Monex, etc. They have a great party every year at their Sonex facility at Oshkosh during Airventure. John Monnett Sr. is always surrounded with women the ENTIRE night, their eyes sparkling, faces lit up with smiles as they listen to him. They won't give *me* the time of day, but they'll spend the entire evening with him! It's just not fair!
John Sr. is just plain remarkable in every way. He still drives from the Chicago area to Oshkosh to help out with the company builder workshops. One time I was talking with Tony Spicer, former USAF F-4 backseater who flew in Vietnam, and John Sr. punched him in the arm as he walked past. Tony let out a yelp and messaged his arm for the next several minutes! If I live to be anywhere near John Sr.'s age, I hope I'm half as active... and get half the attention from women he does.
