New epoch
« on: December 21, 2012, 11:06:00 pm »
So today's my birthday and the Mayans have predicted the end of the world.  You'd think that would be enough to make people shut the h*** up and not try to tell me that turning 50 isn't the end of the world.   >:( 

So today I flipped off a cop and shot a wheelie bow for the first time.  Since the world will be over tonite I thought I'd get it out of my system.  Boy am I gonna be embarrassed tomorrow if we all wake up.

     Happy Birthday, J.W. !  Boy, I wish, I was closer to you, I would take you out to
a local bar, and since it's all over anyway, you buy "ME" all the drinks, I could drink, which by the way, I would use to toast your Birthday.   Who knows, by reversing tradition, it might throw the magnetic anti spinning force out of balance, and cause it to go off into space, and hit the sun, or some such inconsequential object, and leave the earth, to happily, spin on it's axis, and all will be well.   ;)  No J.W., turning 50, isn't the end of the world!  But it is, the start, of when every morning you get up, you will notice another warranty, has run out. :( :P  If, the Mayans were miss interpreted , and the Yellowstone Caldera doesn't explode, then in June, I will be an official "Old Guy".  65!   :o :P  But just remember the more Birthdays, you have, the longer you get to live!  Any day above ground is a good day!  Again have a Happy, and like the others said, many more.     But if the Mayans were interpreted correctly, well, then look at it this way, for a few moments, the winter will be over, and lovely warmth, will envelope you......till the back wave hits, then it is crispyville, we will no longer be the lovely blue planet, but a smudge in the universe.  But God willing, and the Creek don't rise...... ooh, should have put that in the sayings, section of around the campfire..... :)  But hopefully all will prevail, and just in case, I will go right now,and have shot of Crown Royal Black, in your honor.  Shoot, I will even take a hit of Back Berry Brandy to boot.  Well, shoot, I don't want the others to feel left out, so some Rum, Scotch, Tulla More Dew (Irish Whiskey), Tanqueray Gin, some Hot Damn, some Rumple Mintz, Peppermint Scnapps, White Dog, legal moonshine...and uhhl, mm ayl, maybeeee.,.><'.94hfodf tooold.m
tak....e  carra;/.e an,../d hap;.pu,.bijrd ayl..'''m :P

JW, if it helps, my 50th birthday is in two days. It seems just yesterday I saw Lincoln give that speech at Gettysburg.

Prepared to be embarassed, JW  :laugh:  Your right, turning 50 ain't the end of the world.  I turned 50 last April and neither I nor the rest of the world has changed all that much.  Happy Birthday!  May you have many more!

50! is that all?  When my dad was gettin ready to turn 60 my daughter(a teen at that point) says -"Gee! Iddn't know that people could live to be that old!"  My wife is older than you! Of course she always uses a differnet age since she "quit" celebratin birthdays.  In any regards - the world did not end - we all are still here - and a Very Happy Birthday to you!

I awoke to shame beyond all measure.  From now on I gotta live with the stigma of having shot a compund bow....and shot it well!

I'll understand if the Mods wanna ban me and delete every post I have ever posted. 

Thanks everyone, you've been the best bunch of friends a guy could have!
