Just had a 48th birthday, got more gray hair, lost more gray hair, and I turned senior on pipes magazine.
My turn to the "old side" is now complete. ::

Congratulations. Now you have an official excuse for those senior moments (of which I have too many).

Now That I look at it...apparently, I just turned senior as well. My only consolation is the grey is still at it's infancy...but I can tell it seems to grow fast congrats again!

How many posts to purple?? There used to be a thread about the different levels, but I seemed to have forgotten which it was... must be one of those first senior moments

I seem to be affected by age more here recently as well, more gray hair and I have to use readers to see anything clearly that is within arms reach. It comes with advantages too, like wisdom, grandchildren and the temperament to enjoy them. Unfortunately my abilty to keep up with them also seems to be waning , but I do my best.

Watch out, you'll turn purple! Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Well, "immaturity" is always an available, youthful alternative you may exercise on a moment's notice

In my country you're only considered a Senior Citizen after you turn 60. So you're still very young

I'd like to know what purpose it serves giving members a sliding scale status level. Is it used in advertising in some way perhaps?
Just curious ::

Only the inner sanctum of the Secret Six (or is it Seven now?) will ever truly know.
I aspire to someday make it to that level. ::
