Jake - I see that you're also a fan of Douglas Adams. I'm sure you'll know where the "42" came from then - The Hitchhiker's Guide series is one of my favorites. I just started using that about 15 years ago, and stuck with it. Although unrelated, my current address also happens to be "42". I don't think this house possesses any great answers though (or questions for that matter)
I happen to be a bit younger than that - but I'm not going to "rub it in". If it was "22", well, that may be different! I have an aunt who still drove up until she was 92. We had to convince her to stop - but it wasn't easy. She did realize it was "time" then - but largely due to sight and extreme hearing loss issues that made it too difficult to drive safely anymore. She's still going now at 97 - just not driving for sure! My dad's over 80 now and still drives fine every day. I don't look forward to the day when I have to make that decision for myself - so I'll never bug someone about it unless they're clearly a danger to others. I have other relatives out in the prairies still driving into their '90s too. I can only hope I'll have the opportunity to do the same!
