apparently this means I'm older than dirt...

Working in the baggage area this evening I heard the call of 'heavy bag' to warn the unloader to watch out.

"Did I just see you toss that bag up there with one hand and then call 'heavy bag'?" I asked Duffy.

"Yes."

"When you're my age and your shoulder gives out, don't talk to me about it."

Duffy gave me a mischievous grin. "When I'm your age and my shoulder gives out I'll go to Sweden, have them clone me, and get my brain put in the new body!"

Brat. :)

and the funny thing is he's not joking and he's about the only person I know who could afford it too!

Hee! :) Well, he might be able to afford it, though by then, who knows?

(That makes me recall, though, the way Granny Goose commented, "That's an expensive looking car he drives. I wonder what he did to get that." And I just kind of looked at her, completely unable to tell if she was implying he might have been a drug runner or what... I debated asking her if she thought he was a prostitute. ;))
