    I'm turning 40 years old today, and really feeling like it's a milestone. I guess I'm over the hill now!

      You will be able to tell when you start to get old if, once you used to scintillate and now, you can only sin till three!:-D

        Don't think of it as turning 40... think of it as reaching the halfway point to 80. ;P

          Hardly. There're more hills ahead, and they're bigger. Or at least it feels that way. ;)

              You youngsters! Over the hill, maybe, but the grass is always greener on this side!

                Actually life is just starting! I'm waiting for when I'm old enough that I can act like a total jerk and people will just say "Don't pay attention to Walt, he's just an old geezer." :cool:

                      What a coincidence, I was just watching "The 40 Year Old Virgin" last night. No association intended, just a coincidence. Congratulations! :-D

                          No, life ends at 18 and begins at 60. Imagine the fun of passing inappropriate comments to teenagers, pissing in public areas and general dis-array. WHAT FUN!!!

                                    Well, time to get the ear plugs now so that when get out of bed in the morning you won't notice all the new popping sounds :) Many people told me that 30 should bother me. My niece even bought me a black t-shirt with "Ha Ha!" all over it and a big 30 in the center. I really did not even blink on 30, but 40 made me think a bit more. Now, wish I was back at the 40 :) I use to think I was indecisive, now I am just not sure!
