how old is senior

As my 40's are rapidly slipping through my fingers , may I ask David where is the cut off ( age wise) for senior ?

Working definition

The age when you put on a pair of sunglasses and you look like Colonel Gadaffi.

I refer the honorable gentleman...

...to my (dead at birth) thread: "Is Colonel Gadaffi turning into Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler"

a bit Neil Gaiman-ish

which is terribly unfair to Mr Gaiman. The picture the bbc website was using earlier was even more like him.

Absolutely...

there is a definite likeness to the Haitian Divorce hitmaker.

Bit harsh

The yoghurt chucking years surely.

Sgt Pluck | 6 September 2009 - 6:40pm

Is that a euphamism for something rude?

No.. sorry.. that's coughing your yoghurt.

So what does the dairy-based comestible-flinging refer to? Was it his "air-rage" thingy?

Actually, that WOULD have made a good story if you combined those two things.. Peter Buck in court for playing the one-stringed mandolin in 1st class..

I always thought THAT sounded like a faintly obscene euphemism...

And here's the Colonel with Randy Bachman...

...talking frankly about his funding of international soft-rockism to a minor television personality in Canada:

He used to

look a bitlike the javelin thrower Fatima Whitbread.
But havent seen her on anything recently to confirm if that is still the case

On The News Quiz....

...Sandi Toksvig pointed out that in this photograph, Gaddafi "looks like a cross between Michael Jackson and General Sir Michael Jackson".

Imagine...

....living in a country where you can't openly laugh at your leaders. It must be torture.

So - was Gadaffi the man

So - was Gadaffi the man really responsible for the Hammond on "Like a Rolling Stone"? The nation needs to know...

Colin H | 7 September 2009 - 11:17pm

And somehow he even managed to...

...slip into Britain for an acoustic spot at a Strawbs Christmas do in a London pub last year, having played lead guitar with them in the '70s under the assumed name of 'Dave Lambert'...
