It really slaps you in the face when you run into someone from your childhood and see how they're aged.

I look much better in the mirror than I do in photos. Why does my wife keep complaining about the 25 watt bulbs in the bathroom lights?

I see people on the booking/arrest log that I went to high school with. Most look 70 years old.

yeah - for some reason looking at the mirror while getting a haircut is particularly depressing.

The other day, my friend and I were at the bar. I pointed to couple of old guys sitting near us and said, "In a few years we'll look that old.". My friend responded, "Hell, that's us, you are looking at a mirror".

Ran into a guy that played with me in HS football. And he was a track star, very fast, in the late 60s. He’s 67. Didn’t have a clue who he was, and I guessed him in late 80s, not 67. He was all stooped over, terribly wrinkled, skinny and bald. Drugs really hammered him.

the sun will wrinkle skin....year after year after year.
my mind thinks it's 19 still, but my body knows much better than that.
if the early explorers from europe had been worth their salt, we'd all know about the fountain of youth.

I look in the mirror and say, "Who the hell are you?? How'd you get into my house?" L.W.

I'm older than you John, as if that is any comfort to you.

The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.

For many years, I've seen my picture, and thought I looked awful. Then if I see the same picture years later, I think I did not look so bad back then.

I have always been of the opinion that I just must not photograph well, as pictures of me are always disappointing.
