The Loneliest Liberal: Getting old

By James Knudsen

Well, it’s official, I’m old. It’s been confirmed, there’s no avoiding, denying, or thing to be done about it.
    I suppose each person arrives at this realization in their own unique way. For some it might be the issuance of an AARP card. That isn’t what did it for me. I was offered an AARP card before I was even eligible, so the whole enterprise loses legitimacy at that point. I mean, they don’t even know who is old, how can they know what constitutes old – or when it occurs, for that matter.
