Marshalls & TJ Maxx

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
3.
Sometimes
I worry about
getting old.
***
Then I remember
the 104 year old
who jumped out
of an airplane
for his birthday
***
And I realize–
It’s never too late, folks.
***
But unlike that guy,
I would advise you wear
a parachute.
.
Happy New Year to you! ✨️🥂

Yikes! Maybe that was a nightmare the old man had. But if he had a nightmare as horrific as that, he’d probably die in his sleep anyway.

Just as Alfred Hitchcock always returned at the end of his TV program to explain away what we just saw, I am here to say, that, yes, the old man survived the jump and lived another ten years, or so. Thanks, Nancy and Happy New Year!

If you jump out of an airplane without a chute, as I’ve done more than once, though not yet on my 104th birthday, makes sure first it’s a small craft and has come to a complete stop on the grass. Wishing you and all Tref travelers first-class flights and soft landings through the New Year!

If I lived to that age I sure wouldn’t jump out of a plane, I’d jump further into my gin glass and swim around like a happy old drunk fish. ☠️

I get it. I have long maintained the older I get the worst my habits will become. Like, I always wanted to take up pipe smoking. Then, if, say, I am stuck on a post that is not working out, I can say, this post needs the “three pipe solution” and then I’ll sit there, rocking in my rocking chair, puffing away on the pipe, working out that problem. Who knows? Maybe I’ll even take up solving crimes. But — not until I take up smoking a pipe. Happy New Year, Old Top. Thanks for reading and commenting. I always love to hear from you.

I jumped from a plane wearing a PAIR-OF-SHOES….
With two (not just one), what could I lose?
I survived the fall, but nearly froze my by-golly….
Wearing nothing but shoes was the height of folly.

The last item on my bucket list is to jump from an airplane without a parachute. I have scheduled it for my 104th birthday.

Here in Australia, a 95 year old lady
went skydiving with the use of a
parachute, so the police duly came
and tasered her. She was in control
of a walking frame at the time, so
apparently it was in hot pursuit 🤔🕶️
All the best for 2024, Geo 😎
