So that makes them XX - 1. Why don't they just say what they are now?

So that makes them XX - 1. Why don't they just say what they are now? Maybe a subconscious left-over from youth when you wanted to be older - I'm 6 1/2? Or maybe they are just trying to be honest, thinking that they are close to that. Maybe it would be easier if we aged everyone like they do horses.

This morning when I woke up I was 54, after a cup of coffee I am pretty sure I was thirty-four, now that I have finished work for the day I am convinced that I am seventy-four. When I go to bed in a half hour I plan to sleep like I am still fourteen. These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
