Don:

Does this mean Gary is having a "Diamond Jubilee?"

Regardless, Have a Great Birthday, Gary. If you are like me, each year I cringe when "that time of the year" comes around.

Being "old" does come with a few hidden benefits. Pretty girls are more likely to return a smile, older women become more attractive and golf can be played from the tees placed just behind the red ones. Then of course, discounts at some of the big box stores just for being a geezer. Life is good!

Despite my age, I seem to be getting around pretty good, as you witnessed with me making multiple trips to the deck, grill, and back to the basement family room. I still get around pretty good on the boat, too, at least that's what the ladies tell me. wink



Thanks,

Well, he does look 'the picture of health' on there. There's something in all those margarettas he's not telling us about. smile

Tony, it's a matter of druthers - I would druther have this young gal in the cockpit of the sailboat than a beer-bellied old codger.


This was a couple months ago, there were 4 ladies on the boat, and I was the boat boy. wink I had her sailing, while I fixed Margarettas, grilled some Johnsonville Grillers on the boat's gas grill, and for a change, the weather fully cooperated. Great day to sail, they had a lot of fun, and obviously I did as well. Notice the red Solo cup on the steering console - Green Coconut Margaretta. The other ladies included my wife, daughter, and a couple friends, including the gal at the helm.

My son says his boat, a 25-foot powerboat, is a chick magnet. The boat cruises at about 35 MPH, which is pretty quick on the water, top speed of about 50 MPH. The difference between him and old dad is dad doesn't frequent the waterside bars and clubs - that's for the younger generation, I think. smile

Yes, there's some magic in those Green Coconut Margarettas, and as the Kenny Chesney song Magic says "I believe there's magic in these sails."

Cheers,

Gary cool

74 today, the ladies at Avondel Retirement baked me a cake, and after the job my wife and adult children took old dad to a great, Greek Restaurant for supper. Nice day, but tomorrow's just another day on the job, and every day next week. This time of year gets real, real busy.

Happy Birthday Gary. I hope you had a great day. When you coming to Michigan?

Re: Gary Diamond will be a year older Friday! - 10/18/14 06:38 PM

Tom, I've only been to Michigan once, upper peninsula, caught some big trout, damned near froze to death. Pretty country, but at my age, coconut palms, sugar white sand, turquoise colored water and temperatures higher than my age are the preferred climate. Sorry old friend, but MI is out for me.

"Temperatures higher than my age" - I guess that only works with Fahrenheit, not Celsius ;-)
Happy Birthday from me, too!

Gary,

You sound like that sissy Mason about freezing to death. Summers are very warm and pleasant here. I have a big steak, a house with extra bedrooms, and adult beverages waiting for you my friend.
