Would you like a whole live salmon and a big piece of chocolate cake, or do you have other celebratory plans? ;)

:loveya: :hi:

Do you find yourself saying things like: "I-just-don't-understand-kids-these-days"... "turn-down-that-racket"..."get-off-my-lawn"..."get-a-haircut-son"..."back-in-MY-day"..."those-clothes-look-silly".

If so, you're well into being a coot and halfway to being a geezer.

I hope today was a good one for ya!

My Dad died at 60, but my Mother is alive at 93. It could go either way. :P

38. Happy Birthday, Bear!!

Did I ever tell you I love bears? One of my dearest friends back home is a bear and introduced me to Beardom. (?)

:hug: wish I could give you a hug in person

BTW, age is unimportant unless you are a cheese.

39. Oh Bertha Thank You.

I wish I could give you a big Bear Hug too.

Your cheese statement made me think of that old "Odd Couple" line:
Felix: What's this green stuff in the refrigerator?
Oscar: Either very old meat or very new cheese.

50. I spend a lot of time in your town every summer and fall

running away from hurricanes in the Keys: last year we went to the Orange Lake country club three times to avoid the big winds. Always costs me a bundle because we go with the grandson, so of course we have to go see the MOUSE or to some other expensive park!
