Point taken. I remember thinking about my all time hero my great uncle Tony. He was rumored to be able to catch fish out of a mud puddle and lived the good life on hunting, fishing and most importantly ethics. I was in my 30's feeling invincible and he was right around 60 and I thought he was really old. Once I got to my 60's I realized in reality he really wasn't all that old at that time it was just the perception I had then. The view of the end from the beginning is far different as you approach those "golden years".
