Jones has so many good songs, but as I get older (not that I'm old, yet, but I still see it), I see celebrities from all different realms of entertainment aging. In Hollywood, my generation saw Schwarzenegger go from Terminator to Govenator. We saw Doogie grow up to be Barney. We've seen the passing of Etta James and Michael Jackson, among others. It really does make me wonder...
I know my parents and grandparents saw people like Jones as a young man. They watched Robert Redford and Richard Gere play the same types of roles I saw Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise play. They remember when Laura was just a little girl on the prairie. As for me, Redford and Gere were both older guys by the time I started watching movies. Jones has always had gray hair, and Laura has been grown up for a while now. With all that in mind, it's hard to see Arnold on the beach all wrinkled up in his speedo. It's a fact of life that people get older, but as I watch these celebrities age, it just makes me realize how fast time passes.
