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.

My standard response is, "well I'm not as good as I once was, but I am as good once as I always was."

Happy Birthday.
Like me (in my opinion & my wife may have a different one at times), I hope you age and not grow old.
I am looking over my shoulder as you close the percent (at 0.9 %) gap on me.
Enjoy.

How do you like your 60D. I've been thinking of switching to the Nikon 610. I haven't been to happy with my 60D but than it could be operator error. From another 70 year old.....and Happy Birthday.

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 whatever! Don't celebrate birthdays anymore. Kid stuff. Who decided that because the earth goes around the sun for a certain time period, we should call that a year, and therefore determine a life span! As for me I' m ageless and I plan to continue that way. Again , happy whatever to you and enjoy your new lens!

Yep doc, the only difference between a Nikon mug and a Nikon lens is that the Nikon lens doesn't hold as much coffee!!
Hey Doc ..... the Nikon cup comes with Jamaican Blue Mountain ..... the Canon comes with instant decaf .....
..... the grey cup dissipates heat, the coffee's cold before ya can drink it .....

I'm "only" 69, but if I can make it to August, I'll make 70. Every morning you wake up, you're already ahead. I'm saving for a mug.
