That's the second compliment I got here today. Thanks Don, but I'm older than you think!!

Well, you are three days older than I am I just found out. My birthday is Dec 27th. Bad time to have a birthday when you are growing up. I told that to my mom when I was very young and up till a few years ago my mom would always by me a birthday present sometime during the summer.

I must say that I grew up in this era but I do not remember this. Part of JFK's physical fitness program.

I don't remember that song either. I looked for my class, but we weren't there.

Each year when my elementary school held its Field Day, all of us would line up in the school's field by classrooms while this song was piped in over the PA. The gym teacher had all of us get involved in the exercises it uses as a warm-up. Once out of elementary school, they never used the song again. It was fun--only done once per year during elementary school. :D

Yes, it is a bad time. When I was really young, my birthday party was at the beginning of December. As I got older, my family would say, they spent a little extra on my combined birthday/Christmas gift or I would get a pair of earrings, one on my birthday and the other on Christmas. One good thing, I never had to work on my birthday.

Edit - I'm old enough for a senior pass, but not old enough for social security.

Then I am older than you. Senior discounts are nice.
