Thanx. It's the not-smoking, excercising, eating right (mostly) , but mostly I think its the genes.

I was young, 21, when I had my first from a previous marriage.

I also have a 22 year old from my previous marriage, and Bonny has an 18 year old, from her previous marriage. Bonny and I have been together for over 17 years.

You two look at least 15 years younger than your chronological age. Attitude and genetics, a tough combo to beat.

Two of my favorite bands (both just under SRV) crashed in '80. John Bonham has been gone 25 years now.... Wicihta city council deemed Led Zeppelin too loud for a gig there and then he died a few months later.... I was pretty bummed for a 15 year old. We had some string musicians adapt "Thank You" for our first wedding... I asked if they could do a string version of Achilles Last Stand but it would have taken weeks to adapt it.
Bonn Scott of AC/DC died earlier that year, leaving alot of young skatepunks very sad.

I'd raise a toast of Vodka and OJ to them... but I don't drink Vodka no more

Oh God, I just thought of something awful. '80 was the year I get married the first time.

Betamax VCR....hell ANY VCR soon!
8- track tape...now...any cassette tape!

I have many, many dollars worth of high end stereo equipment that is now only good for a museum...or a great night of nostalgia !
