So, I'm at Virgin Records at Grapevine Mills Mall yesterday and ask the 20 something girl where I could find the Burt Bacharach cds. She looked at me with this blank stare and said, Who?

in the USMC I felt old at 28!!! At 30 we were doing our PFT and I had one of my Cpl's helping one of our slower Marines at the 3 mile run. I passed them and I heard the Cpl telling the kid don't let the old man beat you.
