Growing old gracefully

How about this statistic?  93% of people consider age spots to be the worst sign of aging.  Of course, I didn't verify that number at all, just assuming that 82.775% of all statistics are made up on the spot.  But it got me thinking.  What do I think is the worst sign of aging?

The pot belly that makes a man walk kinda funny?

Worse yet, the walker that makes him walk funny?

The car that cost all his life savings, but he's got a cool ride?

The divorce that cost all his life savings and he rides a moped?

The wet spot on his chin because he can't cotrol his lips?

The wet spot on his pants because he can't control his bladder?

The memory gaps that prove he's not a spring chicken?

Not for me.  I think the worst sign of aging is the angry, antisocial, screw-the-world, to hell with everyone attitude.  I'm pretty sure that's the WORST sign of aging.  I can handle the rest.  Roll my walker through the park to feed the birds breadcrumbs that fall out of my mouth because I can't afford a movie or remember one if I saw and and just pee on myself.  As long as I don't turn into an a-hole.
