I was 7 when Paul Henderson scored on September 28, 1972, to win the Summit Series for Canada. It is the most famous goal in Canadian hockey history.

Well, I was in the military under 5 presidents. Last one was Reagan. Vietnam in 1969 and 1970. That would make me a couple years under 70.

I bought my 1st Vette in 2008, at 33 years of age (2000 Coupe). Purchased a 2006 C6Z this year as a military retirement gift to myself (2nd vette). I will be 43 in June.

I ordered the car in my avatar new when I was 17, and took delivery when I was 18. I'm on my second Corvette(C6), and just turned 70 last month!
