I have wondered how old all the various Freepers are. I know by reading stories on here that we have had WWII vets to people just starting college now. Obviously, don't post your age if you do not want to, but I just thought it would be interesting to see our age spans. I am 42.
Typically me, playing with younger kids keeps me young, I remember. as a youngster, running around saying “LSMFT”. Roosevelt was president and it stood for “Lets Start Mentioning Fifth Term”. I was discing a field (on a tractor) when Roosevelt died. My brother came running accross the field to tell me that the president died.
I remember a lot of things but I also forget a lot of things. I am a healthy 82 years old and I just retired from driving a school bus this past school year. I am bored big time so I probably will start looking for another job in the spring. Maybe I’ll concentrate on dropping about 25 lbs this year.
Incidently, “LSMFT” was a Lucky Strike cigarette add standing for “Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco” As kids we just switched it to mean about Roosevelt. lol Oh yeah, I really look like I’m 62. Honestly.
I will be 68 next month. I’m grateful that I grew up in the 50’s, the greatest decade in history.

average age
Will turn 13 in April this year. I have been counting down from 39 however.
Old enough to know better, but still young enough to try.
As you can see from this thread, the average Freeper is pretty old. Now, that might lead one to conclude that the average Freeper is from the “Old School”. But that would be wrong. The average Freeper is from the school they tore down to build the Old School.
I was a middles aged man when the newlywed couple Sam and Minerva Hill moved in next door,So ill just say im older than the hills.
It depends on the day and the women I am taking to.
I was a black market baby and there are three bc’s. The one that’s supposed to be correct says I’m 51.
Ah......I see clearly now.
79 but feel like 40. Neener neener. :-)
P.S. Just WHERE in the Hell did all that time go?
