I jam with a guy that just retired. He's 68. Another guy I play golf with is 62. I think those guys are my oldest buddies. EDIT: I forgot about Bob. Bob is 80 and I snowboard with him while he mono skis. He has shown my some killer back country powder runs in Utah. Bob is an old lifeguard that invented the buoy we use for rescues.
