Hang on just one flippin' second here. He's a few years older than you, at 55?! :bugeye:
All of this time I've been looking to you as a grandfather figure, and you're younger than my wife?!
Even worse, that means that you're within a couple of years either way of me.
This is a total violation of the laws of chronology.

WHAT! Didn't I tell you, Ivan is just a kid! Now you are saying that youj may be close to Ivan's age! AkKK And here I thought you were the grandfatherly type!

Oh yes, getting back to you old guys, have you seen the commercial for the Hoveround that uses music from the Beach Boys? Of course the music is supposed to appeal to the target audience.

Now that's downright scary.

Speaking of the Beach Boys, I heard that today is Brian Wilson's 65th birthday!
