I’m passed my prime

Yes it’s a math joke. Today I turn 38.

I’m not too worried about getting older. According to Statistics Canada, life expectancy keeps rising, to the point where 38 is not even 50% of what I can expect to get out of this body. Okay, maybe not THIS body, but I’m working on changing that. You see, I can still do many activities that make me feel young.

I can still…

pop a tent

Pitch a tent (Look how it makes the kids happy).

Get woodW

Get wood.

Mighty Excalibur

Hold the mighty Excalibur. (I know I looked surprized).

So, Happy Birthday to me!

    Besides, psssst, that’s MC up there, fool!

    Have a great birthday, man!

    Oh, and now you’re double-prime! Those are half as frequent as primes, you know. Eight years until another. (Of course, next year you get to be triple-prime, so there’s that.)

    Yes, I am a math nerd.

    @NYCWD: 27 years… Well when you put it this way, it makes me feel really old. ;-) By the time I hit 65, CSS might be some moose fur and a bottle of skunk Twist Shandy. :-(

  22. Happy Birthday, hon!

    Now, wait. Canada is on a different time/calendar, right? So, like 38 Canadian years is like 25 American years.

    I think that’s right… :)

    Happy Belated Birthday.

    “Get wood” made me snort a little.

    I pitched a tent just the other day. It made a group of kids happy as well.
