I like a guy who's not shy about advertising himself. Yes, Newsguy--your birthday dinner.
- Georgie - 12-21-2004
...not to mention that he's probably young. As I get longer in the tooth I tend to give my birthdays less publicity!
- Glass_A_Day - 12-22-2004
You guys will have to promise not to give me too hard of a time when I get there as I'm probably the youngest. Foodie will say, "This little whipper-snapper was the one debating politics with me!"
- Innkeeper - 12-22-2004
WW will probably confuse you with his great grandson!
- Thomas - 12-22-2004
whipper snapper? Only an old fogey uses such language [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]
Is that how you spell fogey--doesn't look right...
- Georgie - 12-22-2004
I had to look it up.(It's a teacher thing)..Although "fogy" is the preferred spelling, "fogey" is an alternate spelling. So "fogey" is fine, foodie!
- winoweenie - 12-22-2004
Fogey-Foodie. Has a nice ring to it. WW

Hey, My birthday is only a few weeks prior to the event... [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img] We can do an "unbirthday/birthday" theme on Sunday...
So, how young is young? (It's all in the mind is it not?)
Who is under 40 (besides me) in our group?
Kat
- Kcwhippet - 12-23-2004
Well, mine is the week before. Lot of Leos here.
- Thomas - 12-23-2004
Me a cancer--early July, and CCK, it ain't proper to ask for age, especially if ww is involved in the conversation...
- Georgie - 12-23-2004
Aries is my sign...April 14th...sisterdear's birthday is August 9th, yet another Leo, so we can include her birthday in the weekend celebrations!

I'm an Aries, too: April 13.
And, CCK, there will be others under 40 attending. Anne and I are both under.
- Kcwhippet - 12-23-2004
I used to be under 40. Does that count?
- californiagirl - 12-23-2004
Sorry KC, doesn't count!
I'm also an Aries- April 11th.
I'll be joining the under 40 crowd too!
- Sisterdear - 12-23-2004
I'm trying to post but keep getting told that I don't exist. Depressing, really although there are those who wish it were so. Hope this one works. Yes, WA for me if I can rearrange my schedule. Need comments on wines I received as gifts from residents (they do treat their PD well!). Ask here or somewhere else. I'm never sure.
- Sisterdear - 12-23-2004
Hooray, I'm in!
- newsguy - 12-23-2004
as for ages, i'll be turning 43 at our wine binge... err... soiree next summer. but i don't feel a day over 29! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]
looks like we'll have a birthday, quite a few near-birthdays and tons of unbirthdays to celebrate!

newsguy, after a certain age all celebrations become of the unbirthday type.
I am a little older than you younguns, but I bet I can keep up with any one of you in the celebration department...I know ww, IK and KC can. Gene Pierce is the mystery one!
- Glass_A_Day - 12-23-2004
31 on January 19th.
- winoweenie - 12-23-2004
Have seen 40 my-very-own-self. Feel like it could be 36&3/4. Age is merely a number. Age happens to be the common denominator everyone is judged by. My great-grandson asked if I was older than his dad. Love that kid. WW
