An old allusion...

[DGS49]

I have been having a little "discomfort" in my back recently and when I get up from bed or a chair (after more than 15 minutes), I can't straighten up for a few minutes (I'm 73).

I have the thought that I look and feel like "Grandpappy Amos" from The Real McCoys, and then it occurred to me...probably 90 percent of the population would ask WTF if they heard that particular reference. (RIP Walter Brennan).

Talk about things that make you feel old.

I love the way he tugged his suspenders.

When I was learning to drive, and went too fast, grandpa would say" who do you think you are Barney Oldfield?"
So when I say that to my grandkids, just a blank stare? And....you mean the dinosaur?
