I was following some links from ch.com posts, and gradually got over to a clip, that blew my mind.  It was a video of Jerry Lee Lewis, of today, performing.  First of all, I didn't even realize he was still alive, never mind still performing!

But, what blew my mind, is how OLD he looks!  I never would have picked him as being "the Killer" !!

Back then (when I remember him):

Ok, now who has shocked YOU with how they have changed, as they aged?  
(Yes, I know I am showing what an old fart I am .. But when Jerry was popular {50's and 60's}, I loved his music.)

Chuck, the old geezer

Thank youuu! Needed to get away from the politics.

The only thing I can think of that has amazed me would be my little cousins. I have vids of how one's dancing has evolved.

Jerry Lee Lewis still kicks ass! :D

WOW!!!

As I continued YouTube surfing, I found the following video.  How about a video with Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis AND Fats Domino boogieing TOGETHER???

(Sorry, Charlie, but that is a 7:24 minute video that you may not want to download on your dialup)

DAMN!!!  Are those three AWESOME, or what?

Boogie Woogie Chuck

The person who shocked me the most is ME :P

I am stuck at 21 in my head, and I used to be the 2nd tallest person in the house - now my 5'3" butt is just barely taller than my 8 year old!

I've aged 10 years since Friday though, I'll revert, ya just can't kill a kid they are indestructible - my Dad was 18 til he died :)

Cat  :D

egads he looks scary!  The older I get the more I want to remove all mirrors in my house that show more than the face. :P

Hope I can rock like Jerry Lee when I look like Jerry Lee.

Here is my mantra, a dedication to Cat's Dad and all who are growing older but not up:

Growing Older But Not Up....Jimmy Buffett

I rounded first never thought of the worst
As I studied the shortstop's position
Then crack went my leg like the shell of an egg
Someone call a decent physician
I'm no Pete Rose, I can't pretend
While my mind is quite flexible
these brittle bones don't bend

[Chorus:]
I'm growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
So let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead

Sometimes I see me as an old manatee
Heading south as the waters grow colder
He tries to steer clear of the hum drum so near
It cuts prop scars deep in his shoulders
That's how it flows right to the end
His body's still flexible but that
Barnacle brain don't bend

[Chorus]

So now don't get me wrong
This is not a sad song
Just events that I have happened to witness
And time takes it's toll as we head for the poll
And no one dies from physical fitness
That's how it goes, right to the end
As the days grow more complicated the night life still wins

[Chorus]

Let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead

Egad Chuck...

I wasn't sure he was alive either. We're winding down like old watches....He looks like someone that would attend one of one Soprano's barbeques.
