Those labels are what got me to get reading glasses a couple of years ago. It was a good 55 year run with no glasses while it lasted. Now I have them on to type this on my iPad.

Have had bifocals forever to read fine print; that's including cataract lenses that I've had for many years. The lenses help a lot but I still need bifocals for tiny things.

...when you go into an antique store and they won't let you leave.*
...when you go on a dating site called Carbon Dating* *I heard these on a Facebook Reel today. I'd give credit to the elderly comedian but I did not catch his name. His delivery is what made it funny. |

I had lunch yesterday with my former boss, who retired a few years before I did. Like all old farts, we mostly talked about our various health issues.

I used to make fun of my father. I'd walk in his house and he'd be on the phone catching up with one of his buddies and they would laugh about their new friends - Bruce-Itis, Arthur-Itis - there were a few more but I'm old so I don't remember their names.

We had to pick up the phone and call for an authorization code, atleast on the larger purchases. Later (mid 70’s, I think), we had a device where we placed our phone receiver in some sort of cradle, then connected the machine to our bank. More or less automatic authorization. It made funny noises, something like dial-up modem.
