Elder Status!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like now I'm a part of an elite bunch of posters! Today is my 500th post! There are many of you who have already met this milestone and I would name a few but I dont want to leave anyone out! Well I just felt special and I wanted to take the time to say "THANKS" to all my FTE friends.

Kevin Bigwin

I suggest we change Kev's name now to Kevin BigWIG.... seems much more appropriate

It is heartening to see that some of you younger boys attach some status to being elder. I, for one, am not an elder by any stretch of the imagination, but, looking ahead, find comfort in the notion that being elder is good stuff.

Tip of the hat to you, Kevin. You have earned your esteemed status.

youthfully, himmelberg

Kevin,

You DO understand that this "milestone" means that you will now misplace your truck keys on a regular basis. And occasionally, the entire truck in the mall parking lot.

Being an elder, I've noticed that ... now I forgot what I was going to say.

My problem, being a little older is getting up, going out to the shop to get/do something and when my key hits the lock, suddenly realizing I don't have a clue why I'm out there! It is happening more and more lately.

Oh by the way, Congrats Kevin!
