...Yesterday was my 70th Birthday, TB!
Thanks for asking. (sarcasm emoji here)
Now: You kids get/stay off my lawn, Burn your Real Books, and Stop calling the #9 a "b10"!
Sheesh.
Thx.

Happy Birthday!!!

I guess I beat you by 6 months, but my wife's 70th was Friday. So we're sympathetic.

Our problem, and I suspect yours too, is a lack of mental maturity to match our ages. We're still 35 in our minds, and we're having trouble adjusting.

True story: we go to Disneyland a lot, and just about every time while there, someone looks at us and says "I want to look just like you guys when I'm old". My wife and I have started replying, "But we're just 35!"

Oh well. Happy Birthday, and many more to come!

Happy Birthday, Don. Not to make it about me, but while being introduced to a group of students as a Guest Lecturer for a class, the Principal Instructor said "He's an old guy with a young mind". I think that's the secret...to keep thinking young (not immature) as we get older. From what I've seen here on TB, you fit that description, Don. Enjoy your birthday month.

I see 2 J-shaped objects - the Black one is commonly known to be a Crutch, while I'm not sure what the second, the Silver one, is called...???
Any help?
Thanks.
