Cliff, You Jacka$$!!!

Thanks for reminding everyone. Y'know after awhile birthdays start to mean something different to some people like "Gee'z I survived anonther year" or "great another year closer to death..." instead of "Whoo Hoo I wont get carded at strip clubs anymore" and "My car insurance is sure going to be cheap next year"

So, Bill.... What kinda flowers you want for your funeral :p :D :p

You look pretty damn good for a retired guy. I should be so lucky. May your boots kick dust for a long, long time.

Speaking of 'CLICK' ... oh, sorry to hijack the thread ... and btw Happy B-day old man. I'll never forget when I was young I was hanging around in the workshop with my Dad and asking him about the all the tools. He said something really profound, "Funny thing about tools is that you'll lose interest in using them long before they actually stop working." Now firmly planted on the yander side of mid-life and 24 years in the same saddle I know how correct he was. But I digress ...

Anyway, back to 'CLICK'. I was flying yesterday and read about developments in computer interfaces for the handicapped. Voice recognition is big and so are alternative types of input devices. I read that they were working on a vision system that could basically "read" face or hand jestures. I was thinking how cool to program the thing so that you could just stick your middle finger up to the screen and it would automatically 'CLICK', or delete, escape, whatever. I swear Bill, as soon as it's commercially available I'll buy you one as a belated b-day gift. The visual of you sitting at your PC just flipping us all off (well, some of us, not me of course) would be wonderful.

Happy b-day dude-cicle

Dave

Hmmm, does Dave have a medical problem?

And Bill, may your drives be straight and your puts be true...

I must admit that is different. For my birthday I like cake and ice cream.

Happy Birthday CWKII

You mentioned firearms, what do you think of the other old geezer grandmother who pumped two shots into the legs of a "sonufabitch" (her words)that broke into her house and hid in a closet, I assume to wreak some havoc if he hadn't been discovered. I love the dialogue on the 911 call. She apologizes for the profanity, I say that was this milleniums best conversation with a perp ever recorded!!!
