Happy Birthday Nedstacey2.

Always enjoy your posts Ned. Five more years and you become an official member of the old farts club. Hope you day was a great one!

Wow, Bugman, thank you so much for this. I'm supremely honored, not for the least reason that the recognition comes from a well-known figure around here whom I respect as much as you!

And judging from my poor eyesight as evidenced by how I managed to overlook your kind post so completely, as well as my slow reaction time in responding to it, I daresay I'm fully deserving of an early honorary membership in the Old Farts section right now. Hope that entitles me to a monogrammed hearing aid, which I'm still waiting for from the cheap-ass AARP which I joined immediately after my first mid-life crisis. I still maintain the only reason I need one is from the shriek-filled chewing-out I got from my late wife after I raided the kids' 529 to buy me that boy racer-red Corvette convertible.

You're quite welcome Ned, and much too kind. And the respect is mutual.

PS I'll see what we can do about that honorary membership.

Really appreciated, Bugman. And I hope you're impressed by how promptly I've responded to you this time; best decision I ever made, finally succumbing to the pitch of those Ageless Male[SUP]TM[/SUP] commercials.
