Or as the alcoholic said "if I knew I was going to live this long then I would have drunk more".

David,

Happy Birthday! Glad you could make it.
A couple of years ago, I wrote a song for a friend of mine (yes, I DO have some friends, but he IS a bass player). He was turning 70 and the joke at the time was "he is creaking up on 70".
Since we were a bunch of musicians jamming, the song is based on musical references. Dianne is his wife.

"Bobby Seger sang a song. Twenty years, where did they go
Harold's been there twice and more and you know that he knows
He's creaking up on Seventy. He's creaking up on Seventy

And the Beatles sang a song back then, 'bout when I'm Sixty Four
He's passed that mark some years ago and he's looking for some more
He's creaking up on Seventy. He's creaking up on Seventy

You can tell by the way he acts: the measure of the man
The song he sings within his heart is Please Stay With Me Dianne

Old Waylon's over thirty now and he's still wearin' jeans
Harold's worn out several pairs and you know what that means
He's creaking up on Seventy. He's creaking up on Seventy
He's creaking up on Seventy. He's creaking up on Seventy

Maybe in a few years I can sing it for you too!
Best
Les

Davis and Les you have enough talent to make a CD. And it can double as a coaster.
Rock on!

Happy Birthday Big Dave! Give the pup a belly rub for me....

I received this pertinent e-mail just this morning. Some people are so cruel...

To help save the economy, the Government will announce next month that the Immigration Department will start deporting seniors instead of illegals in order to lower Social Security and Medicare costs.

Older people are easier to catch and will not remember how to get back home.

I started to cry when I thought of you.
