I was born the 27th of February, 1962. So today I am 49. I refuse to think I am getting old (lol), but my body reminds me at times. My mind says go, go, go and my body says woe, woe, woe. I don't consider being over the hill yet because I still feel that I am trying to climb upward in my life. I searched out some information from 1962 and thought you might enjoy it. . . .
