Today I celebrate being 50 years old!!!! I will say that it's NEVER to late to get and stay in shape and I will continue to keep staying fit and active till I physically can't do it anymore! This year I'll be the oldest dad playing flag football (next oldest is 37) in our annual "school dads vs school dads" football game in February and still run well and fast with these youngins!
Today all I want for a birhthday wish is a WIN in Seattle!!! Go 9ers!!!!

EDIT: I meant to say CENTURY in the title thread!!! Am I losing my memory already!!:laugh: :laugh:

    At age 5, life was swell, no stress. Seriously, how bad could kindergarten be? No worrying about earning a living, dating, etc. Learning to read and naps. Not bad. So yes, at age 5, I'd be ready for more.

    Happy 50th birthday!

    Happy Birthday! Love your posts! You're a great help to everyone, and aren't afraid to fly the BS flag when necessary.

    I turned 50 last year, and I can out-do some folks half my age at the gym. I really think you either use it or lose it. Staying active will keep you young. But be warned, as tine goes on, you'll find fewer and fewer people our age who take care of themselves. It's sad.

    Have a great birthday! :drinker:

    PS
    I was going to say something about memory loss in your 50's but can't remember what it was.... :grumble:

    Saw title of thread... wondered when 5 year olds were allowed to join MFP.

    Thanks for the chuckle, OP, and enjoy your birthday.

    Happy Birthday Joe!

    The funny thing is, my brain actually read it as "Half a Century", anyway!
