Gettin' old, y'all...

Post by StrangeWulf13 »

On March 3rd, this Friday, a great event took place 23 years ago...

I was born!!

:P Save the applause for later, people. It's not quite here yet. But you'd better get ready, 'cause I'm throwing a party here on Friday!

Which means you had better bring gifts! :evil: Or I'll tie ya up and give ya to Solidus!

Speaking of which... Sol, is my present in yet? You promised me an army of evil robot clones... where are they?
I'm lost. I've gone to find myself. If I should return before I get back, please ask me to wait. Thanks.

Old? Old??!?!? OLD?!?!?!?!??!

23 years ago this Friday was 1983. 5 years before that, I moved out here from Houston, after working at the Space Center for two years.

I remember watching Alan Shepard's Mercury launch, live on TV. I remember when Ike was President. I (just barely) remember Sputnik.

Old, my previous set of bifocals....

Hee hee! =^^=

I'm not that old, the first president I can remember is Ford, but for some strange reason I still cant get my head around the concept that kids born during the '80's are all now reaching legal responsibility age.

Isn't Reagan still president? :P :)

Someone very similar is, so I guess that's true.

I'm turning 17 in two weeks. I feel kinda out of the loop on this one. :P

(sniff) You missed my 23rd birthday a month and a half ago. (course I didn't nobody, but that is beside the point!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WULF!

Happy Birthday, and I have the perfect gift for you. Surplus blackmarket organs, need an extra kidney or two?
Yes, sir. I agree completely. It takes a well-balanced individual... such as yourself to rule the world. No, sir. No one knows that you were the third one... Solidus. ...What should I do about the woman? Yes sir. I'll keep her under surveillance. Yes. Thank you. Good-bye...... Mr. President.

I turned 54 as of last January. Sharuuk beats me by a year or so. Anyone else here of advancing years and retreating hairlines I know not.

Hehe. Yay for birthdays! (I somewhat semi-recently turned 21. :D )

Happy birthday, StrangeWulf! But... now I have to figure out some kind of gift. You would have think up yet another thing for me to do on top of all my homework this week. :P :lol:

Well the hair's all there, but it's getting gray. I just turned the Big 3-0 last December, so I'm still a young-un to some of you. :lol:

I turn 'able to vote' right after Saint Patrick's day-and a little on that: You should check the Oddessy version of Patrick's biography...it's great....and I'll be wearing orange becuase I'm protstant: Okay in other news I have no idea what to vote about, and what I should care about... any suggestions (hopefully regoinal)? Anyway story pitching for the animation club begins the summer quarter so I'm preparing storyboards and screenplays for scenes in this and the N.A.T comic, and more homebound I need to find a studio or room to survive in, since my mom's rent will go up on my birthday so she's forcing me out...even though she was dependant on my SSI anyway to help pay for it... :D :( 8-) :evil: :cry: :)

This wandering wolfie turns 36 on March 9th. The first PotUS I can remember is Jimmy Carter. Nice guy. Lousy President.

Yours truly,

I can remember Lyndon Johnson.

I can also remember Richard Nixon. :ick: Unfortunately, they still haven't come up with a cure for that, aside from total amnesia. :-?

I'll be six years behind you in a few months, (June 23, 1958), but my hairline had already retreated to the back of my head several years ago. :-?
