Important Annoucement TOOT, TOOT

sonny

If memory serves, tomorrow Ray A will officially be older than I am. x:D Shall we all meet up later for a party? Or at least a nation wide Happy Birthday song (or toot)?

Have a great year Ray

rad

Wa-hoo! Party at Ray's place! I'll bring the vodka.

Happy Birthday Ray (fellow Gemini!!) x:*

Hey, A party in Oswego NY sure beats my weekend plans so far.

But considering the age of Ray's house and the whole outhouse thing of another thread, maybe we should rent a hall...

Cheers and best wishes!

And if you go to Oswego instead of Owego, you'll be 110 miles too far to the north on Lake Ontario.

HRinNH

Well, either one would be more exciting than Epsom NH this weekend. :DD

Sonny, you know what they say about paybacks. I have your birthday listed on my calendar and I will get even.

Thanks for remembering.

Hey how about we start going backward this year?

LarryC

Welcome to the other side of 50, Ray. It's not so bad over here.I think you'll like it.

National Guard

Well, Gosh darn! Happy happy happy Birthday, Happy happy happy birthday, Happy happy happy birthday to you to you to you Olay!:oo

(sung to the Chi-Chis tune)

The really distressing part is getting the invitation from AARP to join the membership and the free monthly magazine. Oh yes, and you will regularly get opportunities for AARP Life Insurance, Car insurance, and great deals on vitamins.

Where's the walker, I want to go get this months issue.x;-)

ray a

Eh Marc, speak up. I can't hear you.

Re. AARP. Yep, you can bottles of aspirin with 3,624 to the bottle for $3.98.

System

It may not be so bad, Raymond. Most menus have senior citizen discounts. Oops, that's 55 isn't it? Order it anyway. I'll bet no one 'cards' you. So where's the party? What party? I don't remember any party.

lnelson

Hey Ray -
Just want to wish you a Happy Half Century Birthday. x:D
Now, where is this party? I make a scrumptious martini, who's bringing the vodka? =P~

sonny

I don't think Ray drinks, but rad will bring Volka. .I'll try your Martini but would prefer some tonic and fresh lime. someone can make a Coke a cola cake, perhaps Don would bring beans . Imagine the feast with recipes from the other thread. In the 90's here today. .too hot for a picnic. Guess we will have to go to Ray's. Look at this way. We could all buy property while we were there.

Gee Ray, it appears you are going backward already. .at least in the minds of your friends.

Don D

Speaking of my bean recipe, Ray, I gotcho Toot Toot!

Happy birthday, Ray! Geez, I had no idea there were so many old geezers out here. Glad I'm still on the underside of 50! x;-)

Leslie

Another year on the Forum will make you go backwards. Happy Birthday Ray! What time's the party? With a three hour time difference, I just may have to leave work now to make it!

Cinderella

Excellent point Leslie. Beag and I will pick you up on our way to Ray's. x;)

Happy B-day Ray!

sonny

I like this rule Leslie. .if you are over 50 you go backward, if not you continue forward. .hence Beag will soon be older than we are and have to watch that smart mouth of his!

Parabeagle001

You're right, Sonny. Mea culpa. I need to watch my smart mouth. Mom always told me to respect my elders... x;-)

Happy Half-Century Ray A...enjoy.

HRQ

Happy Birthday, Rotsaboola!

Don D

Ray! I've shipped those boxwoods I dug up, knowing you have a liking for them. Hope this will do for a gift. I got all the wasp nests out of them as far as I could tell.

ray a

Thanks everyone, including Don for those boxwoods. Just for the record, Sonny and I are 51 this year even though "I" look much younger. And watch for another birthday announcement in less than 2 weeks.

Don D

I think I heard someone say Ritaanz's was last week. She must be AWOL or pissed. Telling womens' ages will get you nothing good Raymond. And no amount of apology or whining will reverse the sin.

ray a

That's OK, she let the cat out of the bag last year. Besides, she'll just say its time for my meds.

Don D

Either that or we'll be having 'Ray Fries' at the gathering. And let's not get into that discussion.

ritaanz

I thought I could escape the birthday thing if I went on vacation. Up to now it seemed to work.

Ray Fries on the menu? Is that like rooster fries? Hee...Hee... Don, you devil.

sonny

Happy to you too Rita. .xclap

sonny

I let the cat out last year cuz it was the big one. Doesn't mean we have to bring it up EVERY year. Besides, since I've gone backwards I will never have another big one, hence never have to tell my age unless Ray blabs again. Just re read this. Makes sense to me, but doubt it will to others. . . Can I borrow some meds Ray?x;-)

ray a

Meds are being Fedexed. Watch for them tomorrow.

But Sonny, if you go backwards you will hit 40 again - another big one.
