Unfortunately, I live over a deposit of basalt bedrock that can't be dug into easily.
Ever since I started equating correlation with causality, violent crime has fallen 58%.

Fortunately, the aliens have all vanished, so you won't need the bunker.

Unfortunately, "less young" people may not have the stamina for that type of fun.

Unfortunately, we don't have much choice (but I truly believe it's better to admit to being less young than one used to be than it is to try to deny the progression of time).

Fortunately, people don''t believe me when I tell them how old I really am. The best of both worlds, though it can be embarrassing at a bar.

Fortunately, calendar age isn't important — it's the age shown by thoughts and acts that counts.

Unfortunately, if we go by thoughts and acts, a majorityu of the IBDoFians would be in the 10 to 12 group

Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with the 10 to 12 group — as long as it's a RESPONSIBLE 10 to 12

Unfortunately, I think 'responsible' and '10 to 12 group' contradict eachother
