When I was around 23 a friend of mines little brother {19} died from one, first day at his first job, assistant football coach at a local high school, another gentleman from RI that owned a few gas stations I used to service the coolers and hvac for passed from one too, he was on his way to work one morning and veered off the road, they did the autopsy and found the damage to the brain, he was around 50 years old... its scary, live every day like its 2 days before your last and you are going to spend the day before your last with your mother, {I know most people say "live every day like its your last", but that is unrealistic, since your last day would be a super sad day and you would spend it with your family and loved ones, so 2 days before is better, and then knowing the next day is going to be spent with your mom will keep you from doing anything too stupid or bad... I have put a lot of thought into this...

I agree, when we go out and the bartender "cards" my wife, you couldn't chisel that smile from her face, lol... Shes 35 now, and it doesn't happen as often as it used to but every once and a while we go somewhere new and it happens, its funny to watch... I on the other hand never get carded.... I honestly think the last time I was checked was when I was underage, lol...

Click to expand... Dunno, 25 was fun, only out of college for a year, first job, getting experience, not worried about a single thing except plenty of time for mountain biking! But, 10 years later and I certainly wish I had the experience I have now when I was 25. Getting carded, nope. It is rare for me to get carded, even by the time I was 21. But, I think facial hair is a big part of that, makes me look older (especially now that it's getting a little grey in it). I told the girlfriend that "I didn't have any grey hairs before I met her", and that's the truth
