      Great list! I will add to that when my wife and I hang out with people my own age and we are all talking about the same things we know and like. Being around college kids at work, my conversations usually deal with modern culture things that confuse and scare me
      It's all good!

          The late Fall air. Sweater weather if you will. Something about that time of year still turns me back into a teenager ready to conquer the world! I guess more specifically the Halloween season. I think that's why I do a lot of the things I do as far as the silly TV stuff like the new creature feature show etc, to try to create that atmosphere year round, even if it is in only one little corner of my life.

            I do keep up with current music via my kids (mostly my daughter). I let her listen to her favorite stations whenever we go somewhere so I recognize most top 40 songs and can name the song and singer/group.

            My mind keeps me young. Even though I just surpassed 40, I still feel young inside. I'm pretty much the same person inside as I was when I was 21....still optimistic about life but much wiser and less naiive. I am also still as competitive as I have always been. Put me on a soccer field with a bunch of 20 somethings and in my mind, I still feel like I can keep up. Of course reality hits (especially next morning) but I in the moment I feel young. Also, staying in relatively good shape. I weighed about 160 or so when I got married at 23 and although I did put on a lot of weight through the years; I have taken it off and kept it off for the past 2 and am able to keep it between 165-170. It takes a lot of discipline but I do feel good having the weight off.

              I spend a great deal of my free time doing things I did as a kid with my kids. Going to Drive Ins, comic shops, cheap carnivals and passing on essential (but useless) kid knowledge whenever possible.
