Happy Birthday. Around these parts, some consider you a senior at 55. Rough neck miles are about thee hardest and I think that's a big reason. Was hoping to get into the senior center, but apparently I have 10 years to go. Was hoping they had like a "Senior In Training" program or something.


P.S. I can't drive 55 'cause my Hawk just don't go that fast.

My oldest was born in 79. I will have to tell her this. Repeatedly.

I remember a scene in Frasier where Frasier was getting up off a couch and groaned. Then he said, "I'm middle-aged." His father replied, "You think that's bad? I have a son who's middle-aged."

Yep, I called my mom on my birthday and said, "Hey Ma.....How's it feel to have your youngest child on Medicare?"

If I mentioned this earlier in the thread, I forgot, but now I have a great excuse for repeating things.
