in which it is revealed to me that i am a codger

I grow old, I grow old, I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.
R: I’ve got a great idea for a Burning Man costume. I’ll wear a sailor suit and hang an albatross around my neck.
Kathryn (smiles, politely but blankly)
R (at her most codger-like): And that’s what’s wrong with kids today! They don’t read! Peter, at Burning Man, I’m going to wear a sailor suit and hang a stuffed albatross around my neck.
P (laughs his head off)
R: See? See? I am funny! You just have to catch the references…
(Those crazy kids sure know how to rock the Lush Lounge, though.)
