Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

I think that farting is still funny and I’m 72!!! Today actually! How in the hell did I reach 72?? <sigh> I wanted to get to 60 and then start going back down. :crying:
:laugh:
You know, Paul, for quite a while I was kind of in shock that I turned 65. It felt like I had entered some sort of abyss or something. All my life I heard about 65 being some big milestone and for old people. I'm finally getting over it. I've realized-- I'm still that same guy who was rocking out Tush at 21 like I can at 65. It's not so scary anymore. Shoot, I turn 66 in February and it doesn't scare me anymore.

I met a drummer last year who's energetic, youthful, and kind of kooky, you know. I really enjoyed working with him, he has his stuff together. Then he mentioned to me, he had a birthday. He turned 70. I think we boomers are re-defining what getting older is. We refuse to go out to pasture and we're gonna rock our geritol off! :laugh:
 
Geez! I edited my post to make it more obvious!! LOL
Sheesh! Happy Birthday, Paul! In honor of this auspicious occasion, I've assembled an online party and hired a band to sing for you. Please suffer through the full 1:30 and enjoy your birthday song!

EDIT: I changed the birthday video.



:p

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, @BassmanPaul! And many, many more.

I second @alaskaleftybass' dancing girl and raise you one funny fart. No grump on such a special day! :hyper:
 
The rules...just like Mr Stubby...have a few minor drawbacks
It's stinkin' cold again, ice storm last night... Mr. Stubby is turteling.

OK, forget the rules, we have STANDARDS here!

Wait a minute! I didn't hear about any rules when I joined this group of goons and that was a while ago, so I declare that the statutes of limitation have run out and the rules no longer apply. It's anarchy bros! It's time to rise up, throw off the shackles of oppression, then lie down for a nap.
