Happy B-day Spider. 50 wasn't so awful...look at it this way..you can now get AARP discounts and you're closer to getting your "government cheese" checks. I know, I'm grabbing at straws, but best to look at the bright side! Don't worry...good music will continue to keep your spirit young. Have a wonderful day!       Cathy

Welcome to the 50's dude. Like Cathy says, it ain't so bad (he says, preparing to leave the 50's....) sad

RIP Iron Man

Rock On and keep the Faith

Re: HAPPY "50th" SPIDER!!

Thank you everyone! This truly is a great board. I hope one day I get to meet each and everyone of you!

No Bluesman I won't grow up. I may have to act my age but I'm still a kid at heart!

Cathy I'm already getting the gov't cheese. 5 back surgeries will do that. Thats why I stick to lightweight strats. But I do love my LP's!!

Jane the nickname was given to me when I was in the military. For the most part it's stayed with me. Better then some of the names we bestowed upon some others!!

My wife has a surprise party lined up for me tonight. OOPS! Guess I better act surprised!! LOL!!

Thanks again BonaBuddies!

Watertown NY area and Tampa and Charleston SC. Now I'm in the Binghamton area.

Had a great time yesterday/last night. And I was surprised. I've got a wonderful wife. She's "my kind of crazy"! Thanks again everyone.

I grew up in the Watertown, NY area (Carthage, NY) and went to  school with a kid nicknamed "Spider" who is 50, but he would recognize my nickname, "Rocket"...and you said you got your nickname in the military.

Sorry but no I'm not the one. I left that area in 75 and never went back except to visit my adoptive parents gravesite. Theres nothing left for me there anymore. Just a load of memories.

Happy Belated Birthday Spider!!!  Forgive the delay, but, as you know, I've been away!!!  Poor Paul must have missed the secret pact meeting, but, I'm glad that YOU and DEEZER and MELISSA and I were all there doing the pinky swear thing!!!  LOL!!!  Maybe we could let Paul join us next year as an honorary member of the Secret Birthday Society. 

Sounds like you had a great day with your fabulous wife and fun friends!!!  Perhaps we should work on celebrating together next year - all four of us!!!  Talk about FUN FRIENDS!!!!

Here's your song, Spider - enjoy, and have a TERRIFIC year!!!

I know that Joe could play one of those kid's guitars with the plastic strings and make it sound good-

Re: HAPPY "50th" SPIDER!!

Thank you Libby. Your a sweetheart! I hope you enjoyed your day as much as I enjoyed mine!

Maybe something will work out for next year that we all can hoot and holler together on June 20th!!!!

Yea I have a special girl. She's "my kind of crazy". And yes the Delbert McClinton song by that title is "our" song.
