The Warlock is turning 50 years younger today, and since I couldn't throw him a big hoedown & powwow combo hoopla in Hog Town today due to this covid bug, I wanted to wish him all the good things that the rest of his life has to possibly offer. All the very best brother.
Happy 50th Scott, welcome to this wicked club of craziods and creeps.
And now you have earned the right to say, "don't trust anyone under 40", 'cause as youngins under 20, we use to say, "don't trust anyone over 30." Not sure what we use to say in our thirties and forties. I know that I was pretty busy trying to figure out where I was most of the time let alone who I was hanging with.
Virtual Hugs, and love you as always ofcourse.
Robert
Once again, all the best in the next stages of your gigs.

Maxed out at 10 machines, no more. Un max de 10 machines, pas plus.
Une règle suivi guéri de tout. A rule respected can cure anything.
A philosophy of doing shall rule until the days when I can no longer "do" arrive. Because when I am too old to adjust an AX relay or relieve a woman friend from sighing, there will only be memories to fill my time. So, the task at hand is to build that RRSP of memories in order to joyfully cushion the later stages of life.
Personally prefer the exceptional qualities lurking beneath any normal state of affairs. Alas, our day to day is being promoted as extraordinary via a world wide web largely fueled by the new dumb & followed closely by the latest breed of unscrupulous scoundrels & judas goats. So, god bless the fool hearted, the crazed, and the railroaded all in good measure for they will likely inherit what is left of the earth after the screwheads are done with it. God damn darwinian primates, why do they refuse to evolve, even after all we should have learned from being dumb savages for so long.

Re: Half Way Mark Achieved for a Top Notch Member of the Board
Still feeling 23 while my body doesn't agree.
I still feel so young, and yet the ages move us on.
We missed so many moments in the last few years.
I endeavour to catch us all up in due course quite soon.

Re: Half Way Mark Achieved for a Top Notch Member of the Board
Most days, I feel twice my age. (mostly as I make my body do things as if I was still 22; constantly.)
Having said that, I take pride in the fact that I take what I was given and at 50, and I have already lived to 100.
Having said that - my heart-rate is still the same as when I was 17. (!!!)
However: other body parts don't really agree to my overuse of them at all.
Keep moving forward; "NOW" my friends. Da best.
Silence with eventually surround us all in the end.
