Good on yer Bill, enjoy mate. I'm having a coldie too and I've just raised it to our mate.

Enjoy, Bill!

I passed that same milepost in May, and it didn 't sting quite as much as expected.

Well, I have eighteen years on you guys, but still modeling away.  Have to have brighter light on workbench, stronger readers, and rest both hands on bench to do fine tweezer work, but models still coming out nice.  I think of old watch repair and camera repair guys I knew, and know you can do fine work at almost any age.  Old dogs can learn new tricks- it just may take a little longer.

Another notch in the door frame. I'm going to like being sixty five.

My wife still loves me, my dogs still ignore me, my daughter has started listening to me, and I un-retired in order to keep my mind active.

Taking the day off to go down Big Sur way and eat hamburgers, drink a little beer and enjoy what God has provided.

Cheers to you all and lift one for Toshi.

Dude--you are a spring chicken at 65. 

Hey. You know what would cheer me up? If I was at Big Sur eating hamburgers and washing it down with beer. 

Enjoy your day, Bill. It sounds like a fantastic way to celebrate. Wish I was there.

Happy birthday, mate, eat, drink, and be merry - enjoy the beer & burgers!

I'm just a tad over 4 years behind ya Bill.

Happy Birthday, Bill.

Mine was July. So far, so good.

It wasn't too shocking, years ago I started noticing youngsters holding door open for me. It was shocking when nice middle-aged ladies started doing it. But that started happening before the actual benchmark.

Happy birthday Bill!!!

Working on getting to sixty-five, if some idiot on the highway doesn't kill me first...

Happy birthday young man 

Happy Birthday GM.  I see you're trying to catch up to some of us.

Enjoy the burger.

Happy birthday. Enjoy it to the most.

Good for you Bill.

I hope 65 is better than 55.  At present, Its all work and no play between work, kids starting out, and now taking in ailing parent.  Its why I'm not here much.

Yes Scott. It seems that the sixties do fair better. Everything hits you at once in the fifties. Health issues show up, parents are ageing and often ill, children still settling....

Happy birthday Bill!

Happy Birthday Bill!!!     

Wish I was 65 (again).

Jim 

Stay Safe.

I was 65 once, I just don't remember when it was.

Don, I'm only six years behind you.

Oh yeah. Happy Birthday, Bill.

Sixty-five? Damn kids.

Happy Birthday Bill.  Fortunately I know when I'm going to die because my birth certificate has an expiration date on it.   

Happy Birthday Bill.

And as the saying goes, growing old isn't so bad when you consider the alternative.

Well happy birthday.  I hope everything went your way.  I wish you many more happy and healthy birthdays.

Paul

Happy Birthday Bill!   I hit 60 next year! not looking forward to that,  mainly cuz  can't believe I'm getting that old.
