Please forgive any bad typing or misseplled word. I have been to the eye Doctor today and he Dilatedmy eyes. Things are still a bit blurry as I am trying to type this.:rolleyes::D

Seems Like yesterday I had just trun 13 and never gave thought of life past the day I was in. At 16 lif was learning to drive and discovering grils. at 18 I was not quit a man but yet no longer a child, But of to the Marines I went.

Then 21 one finely came a night of bar hopping the likes that had never been seen befor as my friend ran me through they canyon a strip of bars on both sides of a three block area.

I lost my mfirst frind when he was 4 years old. the next at 16. At 18 I was doinf Cpr on my Father the only person I was ever able to save with cpr. By the time I was 20 I had barried alest 10 people freinds and family. I seen life was short so I liveed my life on the edge and beon. Never wanting to look back at things I wish I had done or could have done. death had a funny way of working inmy mind. was something I don't fear. But yet it kept me from settleing down like my Borthers and Sister to get married and raise a familey.

Jobs , money and the respect that they bring never ment anything to me. I had become the black sheep. Life and liveing it was all I cared about. people came and went in my life. ONly a very few every touched my heart that I would have changed for. But yet inseed of me breaking their hearts it was mine.

I have bveen in rainfrosted in 3rd wolrd countys. I have looked over the edge of the grand canyon, walked on top of a glasher(sp) climbed moutans Have borken about every bone in my body at sometime or other.

I remember the day I found that oneperson I kenw I wanted to spend my life with and to share it with. Sure theres been good times and bad. But that is life, to be embraced not walked away from just becouse things get hard, or maybe a little boreing at times.

If I could changes things over the last 50 years I would have to say there are things I would love to go back and change. But over all my life has not been that bad. Even through the dark times.

I never thought of the day I would look back and see that 50 years had passed me by. A half century of life oh the changes I have seen the places I have been. What does the next 50 hold in dtore for me?

Yip today is my Birthday.:D
 
REDPAINT

Happy Birthday!

I was born at Cherry Point MCAS, my old man was a jarhead.

I'm older than you. I have 3 regrets: I shoulda gone for a medical degree, I shoulda enlisted in the Marines instead of the Air Force (Marine careers sucked in 1967), and I let my relatives talk me out of forcing my mom into a mental hospital (she killed herself a few days later).
 
Happy birthday may it be a wonderful or at least colorfully dilated day:kiss::rose:
 
:nana: Happy :nana:
:nana: Birthday :nana:

Happy Birthday Red. :D

Here's to another fifty.

Half a century sounds so much longer than fifty years for some reason. ;)

(Having just had my 67th birthday in July, I can relate big time.)
 
Happy Birthday dear. You're exactly 21 years older than me. :cattail: oops I mean... :eek: 21 days. DAYS. You young spry thing, you. :D

:kiss: :kiss:

Thanks Ya'll. I don;t know what 50 is to feel like. I still feel like I did when I was 20. OK I was in alot better shap back then. I was not round like I am now days:D

Not sure how the next 50 will be considering a few years ago I was told by my Doctors I had the bones of someone in their 80's:eek: I told him to find out who had mine and give them back these old bones.:cool: I have to wait anouther 80 something days to get my prestnet. I going on a carbben(sp) Cruise the frist week of Dec. IF we are haveing snow here I may just not come back. :D:D:D

That's funny! (Not the part about the bones being old, but that fact that you could make a joke out of it.)

About a year or two ago, I turned 50, and now, I'm 60, fer chrissakes! Time flies at this stage in life, so enjoy it.

(I too, found the love of my life, but then Xena went off the air. It's been all downhill since then.)

Happy Birthday
 
Im going to be there in a little less than 60 days. Not a day goes by I dont think back on my 1st half century and wish I had done so many things differently. But, as we all know, they are what they are. So I go on.

Anyway, Happy Birthday Red.
 
I'm 4 years behind you, Red, and usually have to stop and think before I stand any hope of acting my age. And, yeah, regrets, I've got a few...

Hope you had/have a great birthday and I'll buy you a beer on your 100th ;)
