OK, ctown28 mentioned this in one of my other threads, about wondering whose the oldest Sleuth. Now, it's got my curosity aroused as to whose the oldest Sleuth that joined this game, and also the oldest playing todate? If there's already a thread addressing this, I humbly apologize.

Howdy "a agarwal". I wish you all the best, and I tip my feather hat to you. By the way, I love your chinese "Warrior Coat." Silly me, I accidently sold mine while cleaning out our equipment room...hehe. I was running around the office naked, until Texan got tired of looking at me, and made me wear his bomber jacket..hehe. I may look a bit silly, but at least I'm not cold. Hopefully, I'll be able to buy something more elegant soon. Happy hunting dear.

My person is not very old at all compared to your people mines only 80 days old.

Love Rosan

Love takes more than 80 days.

Hi there Rosan. Lol, at least you don't have to worry about being put in a nursing home. The day I have to ask Ben, or Sunny, to add wheel chairs, then I'm really going to worry. I'm like the old lady in a song I heard: "Go Granny, Go Granny, Go Granny, Go!" Ah, to be young at heart:)

Ah crunchpatty, you make me smile:)

Hi there DaRu! Welcome back to the game. I don't know you yet. I've been playing a little over a hundred days. I hope we don't have to add wheelchairs... how would you attempt your next cartwheel in one of those? Oh, and I think Crunchpatty makes all of us smile. Long live Crunchpatty!!!!

My doctor had a less optimistic prognosis. And, a very cold finger :)

I'm okay though, you're clearly all as sick as I am and for me it's really about the company I keep.

I actually think an low-rent nursing home as an alternative to the high cost of apartments here would make for a nifty game addition. Just think: the one in New York would have pathetic funding compared to anything outside the US and would cost its residents three cases a day in "chemical restraint" time. Instead of sidekicks, we could have interns. And instead of books, we could all be scrambling to collect meaningless anecdotes about some guy called 'The Kaiser" (or, for the Eastern hemisphere, "Pol Pot").

No matter how old you are, there's just not enough Alzheimer's in the game...

*winks at Bon. Or Bin. Or Ban* Hoo-boy, what was the Admin's name again?

Thank you for the sweet "Welcome Back," Lady Zeugirdor. Nice to hear from you. I laughed so hard when I read your reply crunchpatty, that I had tears in my eyes. I called Texan in here to read it, and he remarked, that a retirement center might be nice for the old slueths who have retired, or decided to hang it up and play checkers all day. I think you're on to something crunchpatty regarding your comments. I laughed and said perhaps we need a "Cematary," for those who've kicked the bucket.......lol.

OK.......looks like I'm getting ready for a retirement center...since I'm losing it, can't spell, and wearing depends...ha! Dang, this thing called "Old-Timers," is getting too close for comfort.

lol DaRu, I'm not far behind at over 1200 days myself. I still get mad at myself when I make those "rookie" mistakes. Did one today and forgot to do the favor I was holding before travelling!

If I ever start rambling on with stories like, "We'll I remember back in the day...." then you know it's time to put me away!

ctowen, when I was growing up I never thought that I would grow old.... but, the years are slipping by so quickly. It just seems like yesterday when I joined Sleuth, yet here I am, three years later, still playing this game. Where does time go? It's getting to the place where gravity is starting to play havoc with the body, hair's turning grey and getting thinner, and the eye sight isn't what it use to be..............man, "What's going on?" Just have to roll with the punches...lol! OK, just for the record, so all of you know............I still have all my teeth, look young for my age, and in no need of a wheelchair anytime soon.......and I'm talking.......way in the future. With that said, I'll say no more.....lol. *DaRu, looks around the office to make sure no one is listening, then calls her plastic surgeon*
