Looking at the poll I now know why I don't get any respect and why the rest of you can't spell.

Aches and pains will give a little reminder if you dont believe as crackers (no pun intended). Every body I know over 40 thats all they tell me these aches and pains comes as soon as you turn 40. I think is just a mental issue so stay young in the mind. I am trying at 36.

Aches and pains are just nature's way of letting you know you aren't dead yet...

Aches and pains are nature's payback for what you DID at 15-40 (and a reminder of what an idiot you'd look like if you tried it now). 59 1/2 and not counting.

Couldn't agree more.... even at 'only' 34!
@crackers: You mean, your wife keeps you -well- young? Maybe, that'll change my opinion about women...

Between the dirt bikes, the wife and the kid, turning 50 someday seems practically impossible. I'm 38 now and feel much more like my Pops at 63--his knees work better and my lungs work better, but just barely. Guess it's all relative.

46 next Friday.
A lifetime of Soccer, Hockey, Rugby, Mountian Biking, and many others leaves me with my share of aches and pains. The remedy? More sports, but milder sports, mainly Disc Golf.
