I really am going to be positive in this book, instead
of dwelling on the negative aspects
of turning 50, such as that you get wrinkled and forgetful and achy, and you gain weight merely by watching food commercials, and the warranties are expiring on all your
remaining teeth and
internal organs, and your idea
of a big night is to stay up late enough to see the previews for Letterman, whose actual show you have not watched since the Reagan administration.
