« on: February 10, 2012 - 11:33:45 AM »
 :clueless: Just turned the Big 50 today and was thinking to myself WHERE DID THE TIME GO between 30 yrs old and now???????I guess your old as you feel and your age doesn't really matter but for some reason sorta bummed today.one way i look at it though is i'm one more year to retirement............  :22yikes: even that word sounds like your puttimg a horse out to pasture.   :lol:
Thinking about retiring march of next year as i'll have my 30 years and out with full pay at 51 years old.maybe then i'll have time to get back to working on my 71 chally again.been doing a R and R tranny job in my dailey driver 99 cougar off and on during the winter so i didn't get to my chally at all this winter.
anyway guys/gals how about a good ol c.c. com pick me up.  :icon16:

Birthdays are a good thing as it means that you made it another year!   In life, anyone can go at anytime . . . be happy about where you are in life and enjoy!   :clapping:

Happy Birthday! I'm right behind you, and have the attitude that 50 is just another number.  :cheers:

50 just makes you a classic. Start to worry when you become an antique.

A woman who was the daughter of an Iroquois medicine man once told me that I would live to see 82. I said "I sure hope you mean 1982."


"She'll make point five past light speed. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, and I've made a lot of special modifications myself."
