The How and the Tao of Old Time Banjo

(funkyseagull.com): This is the free online Creative Commons licensed edition of ‘The How and the Tao of Old Time Banjo.’ I’ve been threatening to learn the banjo for years. I think this year’s birthday may be the perfect opportunity.

I’ve figured out how to solve the Social Security problem!

All those Baby Boomers about to cash in on their SS are going to break the bank, so to speak. Some folks want to raise the minimum retirement age to keep that from happening all at once, but I propose something different.

With plastic surgery being so popular these days, all we need to do is legally change people’s age when they have “work done.” So, when you get that facelift or tummy-tuck, we just lop a few years off your “legal age,” thus providing more years for you to contribute to the SS fund! No more lying about your age! And think of the boon to the medical community when millions of women sign up to “get young again.”

And us guys, well, our wives would be getting younger all the time!
