Out Of Time

You know you're going old when ...

The lead singer from one of your all-time favorite bands has to cancel a tour because of a bad back. That's right, no U2 in July because Bono -- perhaps from carrying the weight of the world too long -- can't do it right now.

And I had a whole day planned; one that included breaking my diet for a cheese steak at Pat's or Geno's (my policy is hit whichever one has the shorter line).

But it gets worse.

The lead singer of another all-time favorite band does an exclusive interview with ... Larry King.

That's right, and he fit right in on the set with the human insect.

Oy.

My days in Miami Beach, the retirement home for Jews from the mid-Atlantic, are coming.

I refused on principal.
