"I hope they don't have it wrong??" Free

- What a tangled web I weave, when I practice to deceive! -

Thanks guys.

Perhaps we're all victims on this one.
I'm delighted to announce my age. I was born in 1954.
But I've gotten in the habit of trying to avoid a fuss when possible.

Yuku (or Ez?) doesn't allow registration by year, but also requires registration by month and day.
And since I enjoy celebrating Independence day so much, I welcome the birthday fussing on that day.
It's not Yuku's fault. They've just got the wrong info.
I'll be happy to correct it if they ever allow age registration by year alone (if it's technically possible to withdraw the currently specified date).

But the truth is, it's not my real birthday. That remains a closely guarded secret.

But thanks Free, tron, & L8.

PS
I continue to be amused by those (often women) that lie about their age.
Even a very youthful looking (for her age) 70 year old woman that claims to be 58 might seem relatively to have been run over by a bus.
But though for a 58 year old she might look rather far gone, for a 70 year old she may look fabulous.

It's never made sense to me to lie about my age, or much else for that matter.
I tried lying when I was a child. It didn't work out.
In my adulthood I've found it's just more trouble than it's worth. I claim no vast moral superiority about it. It's not an issue of morality. It's just not practical.
So I've given it up. "Between honesty & duplicity is silence." Dr. Joy Browne

Happy birthday U.S.A.

And thanks all for joining in the celebration.

"you're a geezer"

Usually when a sweet young thing slaps me tron, they yell "Masher!" or "Pervert!".
But life springs external. One of these days, one of them is sure to yell "Geezer!". And then at long last I'll know I've finally made it.

I loaded up the tractor w/ cooler, dogs, folding chair, etc.
I was taking it all down to the stream to have a cookout down there. Great way to celebrate. It's gorgeous down there.

Problem is, I got the tractor stuck in the mud. I'm not sure how I'll ever get it out. It's up past it axles, listing badly to one side.
It's 4 wheel drive, and it's got a bucket on it. I had 3 wheels spinning in the mud (the front axle isn't posi) and I was using the bucket to help push me along.

Zippo. It won't budge. It's not easy to get that thing stuck. But I've done a superb job with it this time.

I may go back there Saturday with a jack & etc. and try to get it out of there. But I may just have to leave it there, & hope for a dry August.

Well IB1,
First you live.
Then you die.
Might as well die happy.
