This May Be a Reiteration...
but I am too, ahem, *cough* mature to read through six (6!) pages of dialogue about young vs. old.
Your are young once, you are old (it seems) forever.
Just remember the adage, "Age and cunning will always defeat youthful enthusiasm." ...Dick Cheney.
Kidding!!!
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow mindedness.”
—Mark Twain
\"La vida es dura, el corazon es puro, y cantamos hasta la madrugada.” (Life is hard, the heart is pure and we sing until dawn.)

There is something that the "Young" keep forgetting!
The Ole Geezers still have control of the Most Money!
Someday they will wake up and realize that "Fact". Until they do just that they will always "Suck Hind Teat".

they will always Suck Hind Teat because that is the way it is supposed to be.
the young are smart and well educated and good at Nintendo but the one thing they lack is experience. this is why the Ole Geezers Will continue to run
things and control most of the money.

Horrible News in Baja!! Happened to Three older women.
Three older women, Myrtle, Carol, and Nellie, were sitting on a park bench having a quiet conversation when a flasher approached from across the park.
The flasher came up to the ladies, stood right in front of them and opened his trench coat. Myrtle immediately had a stroke. Then Carol also had a
stroke. But Nellie, being older and more feeble, couldn't reach that far.
Bless her heart.

Now that is an old joke.

Baja Bernie:
I'm in my 30's, so I still consider myself to be part of the younger crowd, and I have to admit that I have seen a lot of age-based division in the
Baja boards lately. But the Sh*t has been started by the older folks, trying to impose their ways on the youngsters.
I don't know why this is happening, but I really resent it.

sayonara - not all of the older ones are grumpy, that are only very few - believe me. And sometimes they feel just overrun by the new
crowd ( which also isn't always young by age, rather by the NOMAd status). And it was a little bit though after JOHN - blank nerves and lots of
distress that broke all loose.
So lets just drop it now!
WELCOME TO THE BOARD !!!

I find myself in a state of mass confusion....young vs old???? there is no such thing because we are old for so much longer then we are young.....why
on earth would I want to stay young....even though at 51 I think like I am young...but with perks......being young is very challenging and without
the benefits of truly enjoying life due to the pressures of establishing a life style.....the only thing that makes us old is the way we think and the
lack of being spontaneous....which is silly because now is the best time to do what ever we want.....and anyone who would want to put up with an 18 yr
old is out of their mind.....labor intensive.....and they want what we are already done with...just get a good table dance or something for kicks and
be glad we don't have to start over all the things we have already done. I love being in my 50's and work damn hard to look great for my age.....not
to LOOK younger..but to look really GOOD at this age....then we die.....

This is a quote of my last comment on the opening post that started this thread---
"Here is an idea! Why don't we all just agree that we may want different things in Baja and then just get along with each other and forget our
differences and laugh together when we can find common ground.
Just a thought.
Would you please tell me how that is in any way negative or even really attempting to tell anyone anything.
Here is a quote from you " But the Sh*t has been started by the older folks, trying to impose their ways on the youngsters.
I don't know why this is happening, but I really resent it."
What is it that you resent about what I said?

Some good advice I recieved while in my 20's:
You're only young once, but you can be immature forever!
Very good advice it is, but of course I don't follow it in my personal life... not all the time, anyway

the problem with telling anybody anything is they never listen.....all we can offer is advice or opinions and pray that we give them something to
think about.....we all do whatever we want regardless of what we are told to do.....bummer eh? I wish I had listened a few times in my life....but
noooooooo and regret that I didn't......the most famous hated phase...."I told you so"..... I also thought it was the older that resented the younger....I feel so much better knowing that goes both ways now....but truly a waste
of life for anyone.....

Help!!??!!
Somewhere today I read on the internet:
"Write your hurts in the sand,and carve your sucesses in stone"
I thought it was on this thread, and I thought Skeet posted it. I reviewed the thread and can't find it. I don't have the wording right, and it was
such wonderful advice! Anyone know where I saw it? Or was it just a very wise dream?

Summanus, that site shows the words I was looking for. I don't think that is where I saw them, but it works. Thank you.

Young v.s. Old.....?
There can be no problem labeled Young v.s. Old...because the problem is not that we are old, but that we are 'young'.
Living well is the best revenge. Who lives well, long lives.
Our lives should not be numbered by years, days and hours. Ride boldly, ride...like those horsemen of Pancho Villa's.
But then, I am not young enough to know everything.
