I'm 52 and still excited about every birthday. When my kids at school ask me how old I am I am never embarrassed to tell them. Usually, they are impressed! Every year when I get a year older, I feel like I've accomplished something, and I feel good. I feel sorry for the people who hate their birthdays.

I don't want wrinkles or gray hair and I do what I can to prevent them. The maturity thing is not really my bag either. Eventually I will act my age. Probably when I am 120. I think you have great hair!!! It's like silk. Although you may want to color it when the gray starts to really come in. You'll understand when you're 40. Happy Birthday kid!!!! -S (almost 41 going on 17) I have never liked the idea of physically ageing….and I think it’s just vanity getting the better of me.

I was warned about several things, from marriage to hitting 30 and home ownership. Had the advice been right, I would be on my second home and still looking for a bigger house, fighting each night over my wife's lavish expenses, and due for a 30 lb "husband poutch" next August. Fortunately, Anna's never had a manicure either (except for the wedding), I've accepted that my home will serve as my future, roomy coffin, and... OK, so maybe there's be some truth in the whole weight thing. Maybe I'll end up on those packaged meals that Dan Marino peddles on TV. Happy belated birthday to you, your corps, my corps, our corps and the Marine Corps. I guess I still need to get drunk, eat some cake and ruin a perfectly good dress uniform. -GK Charles Shultz is indeed a great example for us procrastinating cartoonists. :)
