A mere youngster! Happy birthday.

I really don't feel a day over 39 years and 364 days old. 😎

Thanks guys.

Actually, my mom would say that I am not yet 40, another 17 hours to go.

Happy happy happy happy b'day Ralph ! 🙂

40 is like 30 and just a bit more, don't worry 🙄

 

[dcsang]

Welcome to my world Ralph 😉

Happy Birthday 🙂

Cheers,
Dave

40's not so bad for a man. You're old enough to be making some good money and young enough to enjoy it!

So I want to know:

What are you getting for your 40th?

Good reason to pick up a new camera.... or lens...

I waited for the 45th to get the SP. A mistake you could correct!

And Remember: tell your wife "Most men freak-out when they hit 40. Have affairs, quit their jobs and start new careers, or by fast cars. I just want a new camera..."

It only gets better Ralph!

Forty! My goodness, he's just a baby! I passed that mileage marker over a decade ago.

Enjoy, Ralph, and do what Brian suggests! 😀

Nick, yes, I think you have it right.

Now Brian, let's see, I have a new job (same career), with only 120,000 miles on my Maxxima it is still going strong and is fast enough for me, I am fighting the more camera thing, surely unsuccessfully, but that is part of our fun. Affairs, well, I have a firm belief that you can look, but you can't blah blah blah.........

I was in touch with Luigi last week and a nice black half case in on its way to me for my M3, that is my birthday present to myself.

 

[Sonnar Brian]

You know, I wonder if Luigi started making a line of leather-wear for women how many of us would start buying it for our wives/girlfriends?

 

[rover]

He has a line of bags for women Brian. I did look quickly, they look nice to me, but nobody would acuse me of having any fashion or trendy knowledge.

I don't think that's the line of leather for women that Brian had in mind. At least it's not what I had in mind 😉

Happy Birthday! It's all downhill from here but the ride is sooo much fun 🙂

Happy B-day, fearless Book2 leader. We don't want to hear any stories about you crying in your beer because none of the young(er) women will bat an eye in your direction anymore. They have an internal "ewww, he's 40" dectector, you know. 😉

the cure for that is to make a ton of money.. or be an obnoxious artist.. I'm working on the latter, myself

happy birthday, old man! (and I'm only 4 months behind you)

Brett,

You know your asking for this....

Well, you've got the obnoxious part down pat! 😛
