Actually like jack Benny always said "I'm 39"
Thar's only two possibilities: Thar is life out there in the universe which is smarter than we are, or we're the most intelligent life in the universe. Either way, it's a mighty sobering thought. (Porkypine - via Walt Kelly)

A week ago.
I turned 60.

As I turned 60 last July, I can give you the benefit of my six months of experience:
- The AARP is more aggressive than ever, and you will join.
- If you live in the state of Ohio, you will shortly receive a Golden Buckeye discount card. It will only stay in your junk pile a short time before you decide to use the damned thing.
- The note of pleading in your voice to "Please card me" when you buy alcohol will become so pathetic, they actually do so.
- Young women now think you're harmless.
- The question is now "Why aren't you retired?" rather than "When are you going to retire?".

I turned 60 in November.
- AARP has kept an arms length away so far. Nor more mail than when I turned 50. However, my wife has been bombarded with Medicare supplemental insurance offers.
- I also live in Ohio, but never heard of the Golden Buckeye card.
(I see they stopped issuing them temporarily in Oct 2021, I'll be getting one later this year) - The last time I was carded to actually convince some one I was of age was about 36 years ago. Since then it's because they card everybody as a rule.
- Women find me harmless since I was married. I often bring my wife up in early conversation (in a positive way) just so there isn't any question.
- I find that conversations of retirement around me are more common. Mostly so the company isn't left in the lurch if I drop dead.

Getting old is the worst... But it beats the alternative!

Sometimes I feel like I'm dead but just too stupid to lay down.

Yes, that fifty-first fart is a killer!

No, no - I'm sure it was Novak who won this year ...

Say what you want but those Australian tennis officials sure know how to return a Serb!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Dressed up as Rafa - why didn't I think of that ?

Hi all,
My brother inlaw called me today asking for help.
He has a desktop and a laptop.
When he plugs the external HDD to the laptop everything works as expected.
When he plugs the external HDD to the desktop nothing happens.
I've remotely connected to his desktop, went to device manager and nothing appears there. Nothing in the partitions manager, installed AOMEI partition assistant and nothing.
Tomorrow I'll go his place and will try to connect all USB devices into a USB hub (just in case the power supply is not enough to power it).
This started happening after replacing the original mechanical HDD for a SSD, and keeping the original one too (to have more space).
Any idea of what could be going on?
Thank you all in aadvance!
