• 45-59 - Approaching nirvana, your memory needs a little tweaking you can spread the geezer gospel Sunday thru Wednesday and each long weekend

• 35-49 - definately on the right path to geezerhood, you need to head out and do a little more research - spread the geezer Thursdays and Fridays.

• 25-34 - you have made an attempt at the path to geezerhood and this is good...

• 24 or less - perhaps you have strayed from the path of the geezer...perhaps you have forgotten the ancient ways...or perhaps you have had too many wipeouts and mentally you are a few bearings short of a complete set hey, who said life as a skategeezer would be easy?
