Kev, do you think we are going to pay $.42 for a stamp, another 42 cents on the SASE, only get a dollar in return, and buy a beer? I don't know anywhere I can still get a 16 cent beer.

Oh, and many happy returns on your birthday!
No kidding. The place I drink the beers are 6.00 each. (But the dancers are nekkid and free) Happy birthday my friend. Hope it was great.

And Happy Birthday as well to Gary. All my best Ranger.

All right guys, point taken. Life is too short to drink cheap beer, so I'll fold up a $3 bill and send it. No need to submit a receipt.
I'm pretty happy about this middle-age thing. Studies are now showing that people with the most birthdays live the longest.

Hope your day of realization was profound and soul enhancing. Personally, I dont get this birthday thang. Why the fuck does anyone want to celebrate another fucker making 1 more year. Life aint a goal, its a journey. OK, OK...Im not Scrooge, jes sayin, its a dumb tradition. But, if we are all gunna get all weepy and celebratory, hold hands and congratulate the poor fuckers, at least "wish him more sex and BJ's. That wont do any good either but maybe you mamby pamby gay wads will feel good about it. 8)

Studies have also shown that 5 out of 4 people don't know fractions, and that 98.634% of all statistics are made up. :lol:

Happy belated Birthday Kevin. I had a brew in your honor, Scold!

If you don't pass on in 18 years, promise me you'll attend a NY Yankee home game with me - all expense incurred by your from your home to ball park & back & if you want your HH6 in attendence - that's okay too. If I should pass before you, I'll have my brother mail you the $ to see the Mets instead. Either way, I hope you get to eat a Nathan's Famous hot dog.
