Age Man Suit lets you experience your body as a 75-year-old
Doctors spend a lot of time looking for ways to improve the lives of the elderly without actually knowing how it feels to be an older person engaging an active environment. Now researchers have come up with a way to give physicians new insight into their world.

Heh. I don’t even need the suit. I turned 50 this year and can tell you it doesn’t get any easier!

Some of us have all of those symptoms the morning after a couple of drinks…at any age.

Does that mean that I won’t have to keep two pairs of pliers in the kitchen to open “tamper-proof” tear-off plastic packages?
Once upon a time, not that damn long ago, I had a grip of steel. Now, at 65, I have a grip of . . . Stella.
Young people think we’re just going to die off and they’ll take our place. Yes, kiddies, that’s exactly what’s going to happen and YOU’LL be the ones keeping two pairs of pliers in the kitchen.

While I’m on this soapbox, let me tell you about the latest trend in jukeboxes. If you don’t care, skip it. It’s a wall-mounted ½ sq. yard of plastic which resembles a tablet computer, the kind used by teenagers all over the world. It offers a huge range of choices (including old country that I like), BUT it is difficult to use if you’re sober and impossible after a few beers. SO WHY ARE BARS INSTALLING THEM LEFT AND RIGHT? Since when are they patronized by seventeen-year-olds, anyway?

Down off soapbox. Off to the one good bar near my house with a traditional jukebox, which broke yesterday.

I don’t need the suit; I will be 40 years old five days from today, but my tick diseases make me feel as if I am 105. My 75 year old mother gets around more nimbly than I do these days.

What a great concept. Now maybe we can work on a suite that make you feel 20. I’m sure the Chinese have theirs well under way.

@Zilla — Praying for your continued good health.
As for me, (at 55 now) when we bought our house 4 year ago the stairs seemed just fine. I used to take two at a time. Now they are an inhuman trek up the slopes of Everest. Next house — ranch.

They can’t fool me.
Some libturd got a fat government grant and developed this suit so they could smell their own farts.
