Or is this just bollocks?
Life past 40
I think he only meant performers.
So you can still do writing and shit.
And to be fair your King impersonations should get even more accurate the older you get.
I'm 40.5 today. I didn't attempt to write a routine until after my 40th which I re-read just now...it's utterly shite!
Draw your own conclusions.
