Okay... (skip to end of note cards)
14) You are definitely older than 50 percent of the population.
13) You start voting for national politicians that are younger than you.
12) Walking at the age of 50: 50 % on your left foot; 50 % on your right foot.
11) When you die at 50 your record sales spike.
10) At 50, you get a medal posthumously for protecting children on an S-Bahn station.
9) At 50, 50 % of the time your glasses are up here (on bridge of nose) and
50 % of the time your glasses are on the end of your nose. Time for bifocals.
8) Even though I haven’t quite run 50 long-distance races –yet–, I can do the Marathon in less than 5 hours.
7) 50 % of the time my wife is right and 50 % of the time I am wrong.
6) At 50, I still have half my hair, but it is not distributed evenly (show bald spot)
5) I still can do 50 push-ups in a row. If any one wants to challenge me on that, see me later. (Krister and Fabian did; guess who did and who didn’t accomplish the 50 then.)
4) At 50, I bring in almost 50 % of the household income.
Don’t you think men and women should earn the same?
3) At 50, I can be glad if half my jokes are understood.
2) 50 % of the time the glass is ½ empty and 50 % of the time the glass is ½ full. Just depends on the glass’ former condition.
1) And finally at 50, you have more than 50 wonderful friends and relatives!
