Not the oldest ... 41 on the 31st .... but still act 21.
Someday I will grow up and stop pulling the gray hairs out.
Congrats Rich

yes - as rbird was referring to ... the song written so many years ago.
... and now she recently left Paul McCartney.
The rumor is because he won't stop smoking pot.
She made him fire his long-time manager - due to the fact that he got it for Paul.
I guess now, Paul can hire him back.
Well, all talk from the radio - I have no personal connection to the Beatles.

But your not as old as the combined ages of your two cars...one is 28 and the other is 37...or a combined 65 years!

Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday.
My sons pointed out I'm one year older than Smokey the Bear.....(not sure about that one...)

Edit: Oh dang,two years !!!

Initially the Forest Service used Bambi, from the Walt Disney film, on its posters, but Bambi was only loaned to them by Disney for one year, so a new animal mascot had to be created. The bear's first poster was prepared on August 9, 1944.
