[nebby70]

42. no, no, no -- you're not cranky....

... we 'grown ups' are just a tad impatient with foolishness....
... being 70 is great - you'll see ....
... your joints may complain or such; but you've had enough life experience at out age to deal with most things....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY and welcome to the club

[Wicked Blue]

40. Congrats! I used sparklers instead of candles for my older brother's awhile back, and...

having only ever used sparklers at night, I had NO IDEA how much smoke they give off!! The smoke alarms went off throughout his entire apartment building.
Everyone was frazzled and upset at first, but eventually sang happy birthday to him. Whew.

Hope your birthday is **almost** that memorable!
