Old guys rule !!!

Well, I think I am have officially joined the grumpy old codger club. I turned 40 today. I would like to chat some more, but I have to run out, and grab a box of depends, some denture cream, and a box of viagra. Actually, I bagged the rest of the week at work, and I am going to gut and remodel my home bathroom. I really need a break from the salt mines.
Take care pelicans!

Closer to the wall than not and would say that's accurate.

It's so much fun when you are just sitting there doing nothing and some part of your body decides to hurt for no apparent reason whatsoever.

old age!

40 aint nothing! you still have about 30 years to go before i would call you an old guy! i will be 70 in two months and i still do not feel old and do not take any medications! take reasonable care of yourself and you just might become an old guy...in time!

I'll be 40 in Aug. I feel about 25 (but I hope quite a bit smarter).

You are as old as you think you are.

Old is defined as anyone 15 years older than you.

40 is young to me; I will be 60 this year. I will tell you that in every decade your body changes - age can be cruel.

Happy b-day.
