And now you are 60! How did that happen?
Well, you are still older than me, and probably always will be...

Happy Birthday Cory Vandernet

To me, Paul and Cory will alway be those punk kids hanging round Granpa Takes a Trip comic shop in Calgary. The ones I used to show the newest pencil pages from IRON FIST.

Yeah, you're right. Don't 'they' say that '60 is the new 50' or something?

••

Sixty is the new 59.

But, it's true, we are most of us so much "younger" than our parents were at the same age. In July I will be 68, and I remember that when I was a kid that was the average age for when men DIED!!

The question is, is 60 OLD?
Or, what is really different at 60 from, say, 50?

The aging process accelerates. In addition to each decade passing twice as fast as the previous one, the difference between 50 and 60 is notably more than between 40 and 50.
