Thumbs up Earl joins the geezer brigade

The big problem you're going have with age is losing 17 sets of car keys everyday. Congrats on making it through 6 decades worth of good livin'.

Happy Birthday Earl!


Best wishes for a wonderful day




Turning 60 is no fun... believe me, I know...


because I had fun once!




Seriously, I found this article awhile back about turning 60. Although it is a couple of years old, it makes a good read.

Best wishes Earl,

Ron reckons I am an old fart, the old bugger. Way to go old man.

Still farting furious, Trevor.
