I am officially a geezer. 65 today.

I really never thought I'd make it this far.
Happy Birthday to Me.

[ThomCat]

2. Congratulations on your Geezerhood!

I hope it's long, enjoyable and memorable for everyone involved. :7

[trof]

26. Miz t. sez "It's already been plenty memorable, thanks."

She (as well as I) survived my "fighter pilot" years.
Never in combat.
I was 'safely' ensconced in the air guard.
Me and George**.
:-(

But still... the strapping of that hog on my ass three or four times a week and hanging it as far over the edge as I could while still being able to pull it back.
Night, weather (thunderstorms) air-to-air refuelings.
Gunnery practice.

I believe there was also a fair amount of Scotch whiskey involved.
Possibly some Martinis in there too.
We called 'em, 'see-throughs'.
Fightin' whiskey.

It was, indeed, another life.
Somewhat fondly remembered, and (thankfully) survived.
:-)

[Joe Fields]

25. does that make it official?

[trof]

43. Yes. 65 is the official age:

You have to start wearing plaid Bermudas with Aloha shirts.
Suspenders AND belt on the shorts.
You should purchase all the gear at Wal-Mart.

Black nylon socks (rolled down below your ankles) and plastic gummy-bear sandals.
A baseball cap with your former military branch's emblem on it.
If you weren't in the military, your former company.
Or a beer brewer, heavy equipment maker, pick-up truck manufacturer, etc.

You get the drift.
:-)
