A general request

[Anne Mouse]

Because we all face mortality, and I'm perhaps the least communicative amongst us, I humbly request that one person in the group who is at least ten years my junior private message me and we exchange phone numbers, that I may stay in contact. Text would be preferable, but voice may be acceptable. If and when that is accomplished I shall leave instructions upon my death, permanent disability (Alzheimer's, etc) or other inability to communicate.

TIA 

Anne

[Mike Omelanuk]

Anne - I think I'm lots OLDER than you. I'm 79 rising or descending to 80 in November. Am I correct?

I think I have you beat for the ‘least communicative amongst us’ but …

 

I don’t really know anyone’s age – I’m 59.5.

66, my six got a twin and I love it. In a few months I will retire and hopefully have more time to write a bit.

Hans,

What does this mean:   "my six got a twin"? 

Is it a translation from a Dutch expression?

Okay, I didn’t realize I was almost the youngest member of the group! I thought there were a few people who were members of the last writer’s group who were in their late forties…

For further information I’m 61 years old and not a bit ashamed of it. But that does introduce a question, are we all aging out? And will that mean the group becomes defunct?

Damn, I feel like the baby of the group at 49

Once in every 11 years your birth year gets a twin 55,66,77. It's a special year really. I will have to wait until I'm 77 until my 7 will get an identical twin. 

It's not a typical Dutch expression I'm afraid. It's a typical Han ( not Hans) expression though.

I feel I'm in good company; 70 like Nuke D!

I don’t think so. I think we’re just hitting our prime. 😊

 

So, I ‘early retired’. Go figure. The wife and I are going to do some traveling while we’re young enough to still enjoy it.

 

However, that does set me up to have ample time to work on all the stories I should have had done two years ago…
