Ok, I know I'm slow, but I was to age 14 before I realized to what "signs" you were referring...
*facepalm*
Sings was hoaky. Village was much better.
Where do you come up with this stuff? You are hillarious! (P.S. This one was very manly! No woman would say Beer Gutt.)
Aw! This is actually really poignant! Love it!
I'm seriously a little nervous about that 50 year old sign since I have a daughter. Thanks for making me worry!
W.C.C.
The ending is sad :(
I like that you came full cycle with the signs. This was funny and prolific.

You're terrible! Although the mortgage signing was accurate.
That was just really, really good. Kinda deep, kinda funny, kinda real life.... this would make a great country song.
This is Amazing! I'm slightly late on the signing here, here. and here, BUT I just did that two nights ago and it WAS a milestone. You may not be able to write your name some day but I guarantee you will still TYPE.
This a a good and realistic list! I'm getting to the age where people as me if I can sign my name. Well, maybe not quite that old!
Very funny and so true! I haven't commented much, but I read the Cheese still. Keep at it. Love your humor. =)
Now... this was actually very profound! I love it. One of my faves, for certain!
Love this! You could reverse the order of ages 25 and 28, though, for many!
Funny post. I'm glad I signed up to follow you.
I'm kind of a little depressed now.
Really a great post. Very thought provoking. I agree with Tammy and Alittlesprite that the ending is a bit depressing. I'm shooting for being "Betty White" at 90.
Have you ever heard "Here;s Your Sign" ? Best ever.....
How sad that life comes full circle. We go from not knowing how to write our names when we're little to not knowing how to do it again when we're old. So sad.
Makes me miss my Grandmas. And Grandpas. And not want to see my parents get old.
*sniff*
Wow, this was so good. Some funny, some sad. So true. One thing though, 25 today is a bit young to be getting married, no?

Cheeseboy is getting deep. I like it.
Great post. And isn't the mortgage one so true?
Heh, heh. I just hope that not all of the signs of age are so predictable.
;-)
the circle of life. Sigh!
Bravo! Bravo! Your signs are intuitive, hilarious, and thought provoking! I can only hope that I am never asked to sign my name as a new resident at a nursing home, thank you very much!
By the way, how's your inflatable green dinosaur that you won from the Silly Saturday Photo Caption Contest doing? Thanks for submitting your caption this evening! I agree that the goat needs a dentist!
I loved this. The end.
I think this is the deepest thing you've written--is this a sign about something?!
Very deep, I agree with Melinda, clever, and witty and so true as well. The picture of the sign is funny too.
Sad but true. Just had the 50 happen to us last week...for the 7th time! (Not the same child)
By the time I'm 90, I don't know if we'll still be writing. That's....67 years from now. I had to stop and think about that (pitiful, I know, for a soon to be college grad. Maybe I should rethink the degree....)
Perpetually Me
right back to - can you write your name? hehe
The circle...or rather should I say signs of life :0) These were hilarious because they are true.
Wait, there are signs?
This is yet another sign that you are still a creative writer! ;o)
This is brilliant. BRILLIANT! And tender.
I liked the one about hair at age 14 the very best, which was less tender and more hilarious.
Why must I be so low-brow??
Okay I am not too happy with age 50 because that one --for him not me--is not too far away. Which means our daughter is headed that way. :( I love the house one though. 200 pages I think of signature this, here, there, that, every where. hahaha.
i think i am right above my kids wanting to put me in a home!
YOU 100% nailed it!! I love this one!
Funny how we always revert back to baby like status as we get older..... boy, that sucks!!
Scary - but true!
Wow. Could you be any more accurate? This depresses me. It won't be long before someone is asking if I can sign my name...
Don't forget to sign the card for Mindy from Accounting.
Great post dude.
lol...Is this your own list?
Love it. I don't think your updates are showing up in my dashboard anymore...*sigh* It's a sad day.
Love ya Cheeseman! I hope you are close to 700 followers....
the house closing one had me choking on my lunch - :) I love that I'm in the category that just signs bills... for the next 30 years...
Bahahahaha!! This is a good one.
I especially like the one about the signing for the house. I think that gave me carpel tunnel...
Call me crazy, but this made me kind of sad.
I'm curious...do you follow all of your followers??? And if you do, how do you have time to read and comment?
This post was so funny.. But almost kind of sad at the end
This was so good! I love how you took the word "sign" and came up with all of that. Are you a genius?
