Hooray !

Today, my corvette is exactly fifty years old.

I asked my wife if she got a cake. No she didn't!

She didn't seem as excited as I was. I just don't understand?!?!?

My wife has referred to my 65 as my mistress. And btw, she does not understand but accepts it for what it is.

Boy’s need toys. I just need to remember the cards and flowers to the wife.
