if i ever become 60 i want to die in a spectacular way.
That's what kids say when they are still in their twenties. I said it, my kids say it, but when you get to 30 you start thinking about 40, when you get to 40 you start thinking about 50 and so on... my parents are 80 and they talk about 90 to 100. Amazing how our thought-processing changes. Nobody *really* wants to die.
When you are young, you just think 40 is SO OLD and SO FAR AWAY, but really, it's just a hop, skip and a jump.
"Time flies" and there ain't nuthin' you can do about it.
BTW, WTH are "amber lamps?"
