Birthday Greetings

[peterg]

It is rumored that today marks the anniversary of Bob23's entrance to this planets environs........many, many, many eons ago.  We are not sure of the precise number of years he has been with us, but it is understood that he is accepting birthday gifts of any quantities of Pabst Blue Ribbon swill. Let's all chip in and make this a memorable occasion for the old wharf rat!!!   Happy Birthday, Bob23!!!

[Bob23]

Tis true, laddies. At my advanced age, I do not speak in terms of years but rather millennia. So what you may ask do I attribute my stamina, good looks and witty personality as well as my unequalled ability to spin a yarn at the drop of a hat.

  Tis my steady diet of PBR along with an occasional Guinness and a Newfy's Screetch or two now and again along with large doses of fresh air aboard my beloved 23!
 
  Thanks mates! You've truly made this birthday special!!

and just how old is bob?

When your asking about Bob, it's "How young of heart is he"?

[Bob23]

The curmudgeonny truth my friends, as much as I'm able to tell the truth, is that I've passed my 70th year yesterday and celebrated the first day with my good friend Kev who has just become the proud owner of a brand old CP 16! But I'll let him tell the story, as I'm prone to distorting the facts!

Welcome to the eight decade of your somewhat dubious existence.
