ReplyDeleteYour birthday was the best experience I have had this year. Though I wasn't there in person to share all the fun with you I have a vivid imagination. Can't wait till next year!

I am glad that you could get old, quite a few don't. I came looking for Mr. Putz today, I hope he hasn't dropped off this life someplace along the way.
Anyway I posted another (finally) Ask Dr. Jim just for him and he is SILENT.
BTW, I enjoy being among older folk, I am older you and you are a bit older than Mrs. Jim.
Cheerios™, Dr. Jim (I hope this doesn't mess you wonderful statistics up.)

ReplyDeleteI've been camping again and just got back to 'civilization' or I would have wished you well sooner!
Billions of Birthday Wishes to you, Mr. Bob! You are a fungi. I mean Fun Guy. You are a real person in this world where there seem to be fewer and fewer. Live long and prosper, my friend!
