Old Age: A Beginner's Guide

I have not read "Old Age," but I did read Dwight Garner's review of the book, by Michael Kinsley, in today's New York Times.  Based on that review alone I will read it, but what I wanted to share was Garner's exquisite review.

That reminds me of my dad's old saying  "life's a b*^ch, then you get old"

The version I heard ended with

"...and then you die !"
