Down the Rabbit Hole
| I guess it depends on who you ask. Most teens use terms like 'Crusty Old Geezer' and 'Dusty MFer' to describe anyone over 60 40.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 |

Legalize the Constitution
| Not dissimilar to some responses already posted, “elderly,” in my mind, more associated with infirmity than chronological age.

Savor the limelight
| I think snoris hit the nail on the head.
Elderly is not a particular age. There's a frailty of mind body that goes along with being elderly. I know quite a few people that are old, but not elderly and quite a few people just as old that are quite elderly. |
