I was born at 3:56 am. The very first words from my drug-induced mother to reach my yet undeveloped ears was "GET THAT COLD DEAD FISH OFF MY BELLY"
Mom used to laugh like crazy when she would tell me that story. When I was a little kid I didn't think it was the least bit funny, but it brought a smile to me years later. She passed away Sept. 16, 2016, and I still think about her every day. We had good times, bad times, and a lot of funny times close to the end. She made it to 91.
Yesterday I was an old fart, today at 70, I am now officially a geezer.[:0][:D]

Reminds me of the time an elderly lady was telling the wife and I about the birth of one of her children in a very lively way, especially when she got to the part about her son being the ugliest baby that you ever saw. [:D]
Only hope for you is buy a Harley and join Hell's Geezers.
The origin of geezer is an interesting one. It appears to derive from the now obsolete term guiser, meaning someone who walks around in disguise, a performer in a masquerade. So a word that was used in the Middle Ages to refer to mummers (actors in traditional plays without words) has now simply come to mean bloke.
Happy birthday you old mummer[:D]
My youngest son's birthday was yesterday.
I've Always wanted to say that![:D]
P.S. Being Bubba Jr. you will never be a GEEZER, because that title goes to Bubba SR. [8D][:)]
BTW, I think my warranty expired right after my 5 bypasses, 3 years ago. [:0][:D]
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
