When I was younger I had a powerful shout / bellow that would do a sergeant-major proud. Mind you, I was completely tone-dumb. That was nearly 20 years ago. I can’t do it now. I can’t do it now. How come? Is it simply lack of exercising the muscles.
You’re just gettin’ old, Pa.

Hell’s bells man! I’m only 40! I know Drill Instructors who are older.
Well, you have to take care of it.
Well, 40 ain’t 20. Next thing, your pecker won’t work right either.
