Well its my birthday today. I'm posting a big happy birthday to myself since everybody in my family forgot. Yes its only 10:40am, but if you knew my family, you would know normally I'd get flooded with calls starting at the stroke of midnite.
Even my wife forgot, but since MS ruins your memory I'll let it pass.

So I'm 45 today, quite surprised I've made it this long.
So here goes.
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Mike, happy birthday to you.

Signed your alter ego BigCountry :headbang:

P.S. Dear GOD, all I'd like for my birthday, today and for the rest of my life is for mankind to find a cure for multiple sclerosis, or find the kindness in their hearts to make the drugs that work for this terrible disease affordable for regular folks. Amen.

Your wife forgot your birthday? That's awesome! Its like a 'Get Out Of Jail Free' card for you. Save it until you forget an anniversary or her birthday. Marital ammo is the most valuable present you could get.

Buck up son, My body hurts more all the time but I think life is getting easier too. Or maybe I just don't care as much?

Happy Birthday young man. May your wishes come true. I'll be hitting 71 in January, so getting old doesn't bother me. Getting old sure as heck beats the alternative.

A late Happy Birthday BC.
Now your 1 day closer to 46.
I feel ya I quit counting Birthdays around 30.
As for the MS , We have a Couple we met through our kid's Kindergarten class last year & we =(the wife son & I ) have went to hang out with them on a few evenings , heck the wife & son went with them on a trip to the N Ga Town of Helen Yesterday.
The husband is from the Netherlands & this town has a Dutch Motif, I would have went but it was a last min, thing & had planned on Relic hunting. BTW No Relics but +$10 in clad.
Anyway the Wife Kimberly has MS (She is 44-46 ) & I see the toll it takes on her & her family= It Sux.
Had a neighbor in the mid 80's who's Mom got it ' Man she went from normal to a wheel chair in only 4 or 5 years.
It seems Dr's have come along way since then, I pray for a cure Today but ill take Tomorrow.

Funny I can not remember if I'm 42 or 43 hmmm, 43 I think So i,m not far behind you.
Good Day

Mike, sorry I missed your birthday! Gee, 45? Real youngster! lol I'm 72! I used to try to forget my birthdays; now I brag about how long I've lived.
I think it was last year, my daughter, son, grandson, and son-in-law, all forgot my birthday. I didn't even mention it. Several days later, my daughter and I were talking about something, don't remember what. In the conversation, something made her recall my birth date. She looked kinda blank for a moment, then said, "Hey, we missed your birthday!" lol
Some people just don't have the mental ?? whatever to remember dates. When it comes to history, I'm about as bad as most; but the family's birthdays, I seem to have not problem remembering.
Mike, I hope they find a cure for MS also. I've known several people who had MS.
My wife died in 2006 from HEP C. They had a few experimental drugs they were working on at the time. My daughter told me just yesterday that it was announced that they now have a cure for HEP C.
