TIME CATCHES UP WITH ALL OF US

This is a bit disconcerting to look at.  I was born on February 15, 1968 and I'm forty-four years old.  Natalie Merchant was born on October 26, 1963 and she's forty-nine years old.  In other words, Natalie Merchant is only five years older than I am and she has more white hair on her head than I do.  Am I going to get this much white hair covering my head five years from now?  I never really thought of forty-something as being in the range of the elderly demographic, but the amount of white hair that Natalie Merchant has is staggering.  Then again, time catches up with all of us.
