Growin' old with Me

Well folks, it's finally happened. I'm on the downslope of a quarter-century. I turned the big 2-6 yesterday. Turnin' 25 was hard. I realized that 1/4 of the way to 100, I hadn't done as much as great men in history. My only claim to fame, creating the Internet, penecillin, and mens capri's. Hey, 2 outta 3 ain't bad. Or so Meatloaf says.
I had a great birthday, and to all the folks who showed up at the b-day dinner I say thanks. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did. A pitcher 'o pizza, and slice 'o beer is the best way to celebrate a b-day ever. 17 in all showed up to bask in my residual old man glory. Only 1 was younger than I was but nonetheless.
Getting old is nice though. I believe I should get my first social security check next week. And my AARP card showed up yesterday. So the perks of old age are already showing up. Who knows, with a little luck, I can get Viagra in a month. Yippee!!!!
