Half Century

Well, guys, today is my half-century mark !! 50yrs. old as of today !! It's weird how it feels looking in the mirror and telling myself i'm 50, instead of 49...

!!

Anyway...I know a lot of you guys aren't even as old as the cars that we're all here talking about. But it seems most everyone on the forum doesn't take things too seriously, and that's as it should be. If there's one thing that I've seen so far in my lifetime, it's that way too many people take life way to serious, and never have any fun on the way through. Sure , you have to be responsible ( well, for the most part ), but you gotta enjoy the journey , too !!

Have a great birthday MootsMan yep I think it takes a certain type to drive around in these little things, i guess cars do represent there drivers and I guess most of the forum members are practical, innovative, intrested in engineering go anywhere people (some of us with a little surface rust). Keep on Terc'in

Happy five-oh MootsMan, from another oldie. As with ARCHINSTL, 50 was some time ago for me - I've forgotten what its like to be that young

I certainly agree with your sentiments - have fun, but be responsible. I've always believed (known) that we are all really just kids (in older bodies) pretending to be adults, acting out the role. Some of us do it better than others...

Sorry I missed it... Grats! My uncle hit the big 5-0 yesterday.
All 50 means is you get some money off some things. That and you get more right to gripe at teenagers

Grats again!

Thanks, guys !! When it's all said and done, I guess it's really just another day, but something about us humans is that we have this need to mark the occasions in our lives. And, as "they" say, it's better than the alternative !
