Turned 70 today, and just received this nice gift from my sis-in-law. It's a new Canon 24-105 L IS lens, should work great on my 60D.

Oops, just looked at it more carefully...it's a coffee mug. Oh well, it's a very nice coffee mug. ;-)

Happy Birthday from another 70 year old, Jack. Your sense of humor will keep you young at heart.

Thanks all. Turning 70 might suck a little, but it's certainly better than the alternative. :-)

Happy Birthday from a guy who just turned 71 a few days ago.

Kinda scary to realize we were "in our prime" half a century ago, but so many fewer things to worry about now. :)

Happy Birthday, and many more. I wish I'd just turned 70.

Happy birthday from one who will turn 79 in two days, i.e. on Wednesday Nov. 6.

When friends ask me how I am doing I say that I am still alive and kicking but not as hard as I used to kick.

Ol' Frank Loc: Orlando,
 
Yes, it gets better when the most exciting thing you do is waking up in the morning. Every thing else is rather mundane by comparison. I turned 80 a few months ago,

I'm not far behind. Enjoy your mug. My birthday is coming soon and I'll have to buy my own mug.

Hey, happy B-day. Remember, it's the thought that counts.
Your SnL was just being nice and showing her concern for you.
You are obviously doing VERY well.
If not, you would have sent the mug to Canon, and asked them to fix it !!
:lol:

Happy birthday. My Olympus Micro Four Thirds 75-300 is the size of a soda can, and I don't have to keep it cool.
