70t'y down,, XX to go..
Yesterday was my 70th BD.
Thanks to my kids, G-kids, & all my friends for a fantastic 70th BD party.
I am headed out to the patio, to enjoy a great cigar and some very nice Glenmorangie Extremely Rare 18YO WHISKY, in a Bulletproof glass by the team at BenShot.

Love that precautionary measure too - bullet proof glass! Cool, very cool.

Congratulations! You appear to have survived the indiscretions of your youth in fine form (or at least with good taste!).
__________________
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)

Do you really want to push the edge that close, both whisky and a cigar? Don't do it think of your health!
Send them to me and I'll properly dispose of them.
Happy Birthday! <- not to be confused with pushin' up daisies

Happy Birthday, Jim. I'm catching up with you though. When I was 1, you were 3 times my age! Had you maintained your lead you'd be 210 now.

Happy Birthday, that sounds like it was a nice gathering. Rewarding to have the company of family and memories of a full life. The best to the future as well!
