Just turned 60 here. I say the oldest part of my body is my upper arms! They started looking like an old lady's - all droopy and such - several years back. At first I covered up, wore long-sleeved stuff. With global warming it's just too damn hot! Folks are just going to have to look away if they have a problem with it!

Right on. Starting to accept this aging thing. It's not the looks part so much, as the strength part, I'm challenged by.
