I have been told that I'm "old-fashioned". Not, me. I thought I was cool. So, I got the BOOK out and looked up the word 'old-fashioned' and this is what I found: old(1) ancient. Hey, I'm only a '67 model .(2) having existed for a specified period of time. Only for 39 years , that's all. (4) advanced in years. Look, like I said only for 39 years. (5) showing the effects of age or use. Ok, so I have a few gray hairs and a couple of lines that use not to be there . Things that was going north is now going south.(6) no longer in use. I wouldn't go that far. Can still get my groove on.
Here is what I found out about old-fashioned. (1) out-of-date. Just because I can still wear previous years clothing I wouldn't call that out-of-date. (2) conservative. Ok, you got me there, I'm stingy with things. Was always taught to never throw anything away for things had other uses.
(3) cocktail usu. made with whiskey, bitters, sugar and a twist of lemon peel. Now, that I am. I'm strong like whiskey, I can be bitter and then I can be sweet like sugar. And most of all I can be zesty like a lemon peel. So maybe , in a way , I am old fashioned. I guess being called old fashioned isn't all that bad. Hey, who doesn't like a hotty toddy every once in awhile.
