Robin is a very old lady... ;)
Darn it Robin! Haven't you been informed that after a member collects
a bunch of those disagree/dislike ratings one of the more..shall we say...stringent ECF moderators
throws the member in the sin bin or makes him or her disappear in the middle of the night?

You've broken my heart.
When I said you're very old it was a sign of RESPECT kinda like recognizing a wise old crone's wisdom..

Okay, this is disturbing.... Kind of like a bad road accident, but I am listening away, I may have to turn it off at some point....

Friday is bad tv day. None of my very important cooking shows are on etc. To top that off I am in a lot of pain from overexerting my widdle self yesterday.. so, boredom ensues, yet, I couldn't stomach much of that video before feeling nauseated and I turned it off at the point I had the pertinent information.

I don't give you much longer, I am rather shocked anyone could manage sitting through two of those videos.

I love my grey hair, I've been waiting for it a long time. We go grey early in my family, and I wear mine proudly, can't wait til it all turns (I'm almost there). I remember when I was about 23 I was at a music festival and camping and I came out of the showers to see this beautiful older woman lovingly combing her silver (long) hair, and I just looked at her, and said, "I love your hair, I can't wait until mine gets that way!" She smiled and said, "Me. Too."

25 years later, I am getting there, LOL, and I am always amazed at the amount of dying of hair that goes on for women in their late 40s or early 50s. I get that "grey" equals "old" in our society, but I don't see it that way at all! Every strand of it is like a reminder of "Despite all the things I've done, I didn't die." I love it when people go grey, I really do, and I think it can be absolutely beautiful. Of course, I think one's attitude about it matters as well... It's hard to look good in grey if you *hate* it, LOL.

I went gray probably in my early 40's, and I never regretted it. I started getting the senior discounts w/0 asking for it, people open and hold the door for you, it's been great. Now I'm 74, walk with a cane, and slightly bent over, folks are so polite, I love it. :)

Yea well... You might have noticed by now that I don't play that "what women want to hear" game.
No hypocrisy here..though I tend to be diplomatic.
My tribe assigns great respect to elders.

Furthermore, my humourous comment to my friend @Robino1 has caused me two "disagree" X's
now, one from Robin and another from @Burnie who either doesn't know I often kid around with Robin
whom I truly love ..or is still angry that he didn't have internet for weeks
I will now exit this thread dramatically..

I look at it this way...I earned each and every one of those grey hairs and every wrinkle too so I wear them proudly. Some folks seem to think long hair is for the younger generation but mine is down to my waist. I was a natural blond in my younger days but instead of all of it turning grey it is now a reddish brown (except for the grey mixed in) :D

I smoked for about 45 years, started smoking at 18 and have been smoke free for almost 6 years. Needless to say, I am no longer a spring chicken but I am not old.(sometimes my body tries to convince me otherwise but I tell it to shut up). Age is a state of mind and I refuse to act old. :D

Oops, what were we talking about.....Someone making a fool of himself. Yep, back on topic :lol:

Every strand of it is like a reminder of "Despite all the things I've done, I didn't die."
And, in my case anyway, that is a flat out miracle. Back in my teens and 20s my friends always said that "I defied chemistry". Even after I quit playing with chemistry I still pushed the edge. So yeah, every one of these grey hairs is bought and paid for...... and I am still around to talk about it. I am just grateful it turned grey and not "gone".

I shaved off my white beard when too many people either confused me with Santa Claus
or asked me how old my grandson (son) is.
I've had grey since my 20's

You're a cutie pie.
Until recently my white hair was down to my waist also..(at least in the places that I still have hair..)
and I am a guy.
