Got up to 8 more inches, just in time for Town meeting! Plowed 6 inches of yesterday. Grumpier now that I'm back from the meeting and need to remove all the dang snow. Barely got over the bank coming back into the driveway!

Nothing long with getting old.  I'll be 81 in two more days.  The biggest issue I keep coming into contact with is looking at people my age and thinking they look so damned OLD!

 

I was young once but I wasn't very good at it.

SO!  Forty is having another birthday!!  
 

Seems like just yesterday he was racing with Alley Oop and fell off of his brontosaurus coming out of the fourth turn at Stonehenge!!

 

 

Happy Birthday, Pard!!  :lol:

Where were you sitting?

 

I lost a good spear and a stone axe to Eyesa Horg's book, on that race!

I was in the infield just past the finish line.  I was herding a dozen triceratops to summer pasture and stopped in to see the Druid Games.

 

 I bet on Oop and cleaned up!  Forty was a big favorite and I got 4 to 1!!

I was just on the phone with Forty and we was

discussing old age ‘n’ treachery!!!  :lol: B)
 

 

We both agreed that it ain’t cheatin’ if ya’ don’t get caught!!  ‘Sides! They was racin’ with war clubs and stone axes!!  
 

 

Ol’ Forty made out all right.  Him ‘n’ Oop spent the next three days eatin’ bronto-steaks and drinking Druid brew!!  
 

Rumor has it that Forty Rod studied at the feet of the head Druid and later taught “those who came before” how to build the Medicine Wheel!!

WELL !

I didn't get invited!!

Hey. Now that I think about it, I have a question:

If those two were partying together, was that race fixed!?!?!?

 

THAT'S IT!

I ain't never bettin' on another Bronto race again, if Forty's up.

You WAS TOO invited!!  We kain’t hep it ifn’ you wadn’t home ta’ check the mail box!!

 

That race wasn’t fixed.  It might’a  needed repairin’, but it wasn’t fixed!!

 

Twern’t Forty’s fault he fell offn’ that bronto!  He was foggin’ around the track ‘n’ got his war club confused with the stone axe!! He give his bronto a whack wit’ the axe instead of the club ‘n’ that ol’ dinosaur, (the brontosaurus, NOT  Forty) went ta’ buckin’ and sunfishin’ and pitched him, (Forty) into a mess of prickly pear! 
 

Forty crossed the finish line first, butt scootin’ and howlin’ like some banshee with its tail on fire, but the stewards awarded the race to Oop ‘cause he was still settin’ on his steed!!

 

Took the better part of the afternoon to get them prickly pear spines outta’ ol’ Forty’s backside, but when it was all said ‘n’ done, the Druids set a purty fair spread and bronto-steaks and taters with Druid brew and prickly pear jelly on frybread is a fine birthday meal for any self respectin’ Cromagnon!!

Y'know what tickles me?  Back 60-65 years ago there was a lot of folks bettin' I'd never live to see 21.

 

Most of 'em are dead now.   :lol:


Was having breakfast with one of my old drag racing buddies yesterday morning. We were talking about some of our friends who have passed on.  We were teasing each other about taking care of ourselves and I said something about having passed my “USE BY” date by about forty years!!

 

 I was even listed in the ten and twenty year high school class reunion programs as deceased!  I’d moved away and completely lost touch with everyone. They assumed that I had succumbed one of the wild shenanigans I was known to perform!

 

Me outliving my “USE BY” date has become a running joke among the now rapidly shrinking list of people I grew up with!!

 

 I sometimes wonder how many of my cowboy pards are the same way!!

I often tell people that I have reached two of the three major goals in my life. They are as follows.


1: I have lived long enough to amaze me friends .

 

2: I have lived long enough to piss off my enemies.

 

3: I have almost lived long enough to spend my kid’s inheritance!!!  :lol: B)
