75 this September externally, still 21 in my head, still loving Life. Bests Ian As a bit of a minor mathematician, I long since started changing the number base every other year. I'm now always 20 or 21, but the number base is 34. For anyone who wants that in decimal, it's the same as 69.

We add ours together, so I am 14 but will be 6 in August. Or 59 going on 60.
My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

Ok, you got me Caaron. My friends say I'm 12. My wife says I'm six. So I guess you are closer to the truth because she's the only who really knows me. I agree with that's why you have such a vivid imagination! I have a bit of that "Oh look it's a squi...wait, how deep in the ocean can you go before you can't see the moon?" It's both a blessing and a curse at times. At least for me. Carry on young man!

57 but feeling like 18 (until I come home from a basketball game) Ha! We have a number of children and I laugh when people say "they must keep you young!" After activities with them, I'm fairly certain it's had the opposite effect. I have yet to say "Ya know, I feel young again."

We add ours together, so I am 14 but will be 6 in August. Or 59 going on 60. Wow, I thought I was the only one .. Fun thing I noticed; add the digits of any multiple of 9 down until you get to a single digit. The answer will always be nine. 9=9 18 (1+8) =9 27 (2+7 )=9 117=9 (no matter whether you add the first two, then the third or vice versa; 2+7=9, 18+1=9) 126=9 (same as above ..) 135=9 999=9 .. I think weird things, and oddly enough the above math theory makes me 4  //I have no idea why I think this has any value, but I see patterns in all numbers like that 8=8 16=7 24=6 32=5 40=4 48=12=3 .. see the pattern again? yeah I'm weird like that
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome Make your sound your own!

I feel like I'm in my 40s most days but that guy in the mirror is gonna be 68 this summer.
No grand kids yet.

It would be interesting to know the average age of the frequent contributors to the User Showcase in addition to the shall we say, elevated, ages of the old pharts who hang out here  I do know one regular contributor to the showcase who is 40ish. Bud
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Oh, no. No, no Bud. It think it would be MUCH more relevant to ask "how old do people SOUND" on the showcase. That is the question if you ask me. I do my damnedest to sound like a 3 year old to bring that average age down y'all so I want to know my hard work is appreciated. From the looks of things these days, I am going to strive harder to be 2!!  Pony up y'all!!!!!

Sometimes I feel like a turtle, sometimes as a mayfly. Averaging at early 20ish. I am 43.
I see folks younger than me, that are completely burned out, and folks in their 60s-70s that just starting to live.

Man, I would just say that I'm learning to fly, but I don't have wings.
And coming down--it's the hardest thing.

I'm going to pass on full disclosure, though I will say that I am apparently right at home here demographically.
Having said that: YIKES
Nothing against geezers, being one myself, but the absence of youth is startling. And by "youth" I mean "under 50".
