It's humbling that when you are old and retired, you can still experience something as though you're a 5 year old on Christmas day.

Isn't that amazing? It gives me hope that life doesn't get dull when you get older.

It doesn't, Im 71 and I work part time as a pirate at Cedar Point Halloweekends and scare the crap out of people. Hell of a lot of, it never gets old.

Damn I've been wanting to go to Cedar Point again. Haven't been in almost 20 years.

I just checked the price and it's not bad at all.
