Happy Birthday, Stainless!!!!
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

You can't make a race horse out of a pig. But if you work hard enough at it you can make a mighty fast pig. - Bob Akin

Having 2 birthdays a year is hard on a person... since this is my first birthday, I am only 1 and not sure if I am old enough to drink!  Yes most of you have noticed sometimes I act like I am 5, but on this birthday I am 1. 
Guess I will have a beer at lunch if they will serve me... I won't tell them my age unless they ask, and then I could average...
It is almost believable that I am 32, just led a really hard life...  :roll:
 :cheers: everyone have a beer to celebrate... when I drink everybody buys...

Stainless turn around and go back. The meet has been cancelled.

You can celebrate your b'day at home if you can find your way back.

  Bob, It's no use. You will never catch me in age or beauty.......... but I want to congratulate you on your first birthday since someone up with Ray allowed you to survive that horrible crash and then for icing on the cake fixed up your ticker in time.

Thanks to everyone who commented, celebrated or thought about posting a smartass remark but were overcome by good sense.  I appreciate all of you thinking about me on my 1st birthday...  :-D
Hoping to see everyone at WoS  :cheers:

I know I'm late, but I was thinking - - that for most youngsters, as they grow older their celebrations get bigger and more exciting.  You, however, managed to arrive on your original day -- all brightly colored and decorated and moving with much help from other folks.  That's kind of like a newborn, and now that you're all of one year from that -- you're not nearly so easy to find in a crowd.  Faster moving, though. . . :evil:

Happy first anniversary.
