Default 40 = 30 ??

So .. Today I turn 40, while i sit on my deck enjoying a Budlight Lime in favour of this warm day ... My wife tells me 40 is the new 30 ... I don't feel 40, but then again I have never been 40 before so don't know what it's suppost to fee like LOL ...

anyway, thought i'd see if others are being told the same?

30 year old's drink Budlight Lime for starters...we don't have decks, we have patios and we definitely don't listen to our wives. Lay some interlocking in the back and get yourself a case of Corona and some miniature limes and we'll discuss this "listening to your wife" issue in more detail.

All of this is in jest of course. Happy Birthday and congratulations.

you know the difference between the two beers is the work to cut the lime and drop it in? My cooler has both in it ... just didn't feel like getting up to cut the lime lol

and i'm ok with my deck, its 12 feet in the air and definitely not a standard deck so I have no problem enjoying it ..

Born in '67. Haven't even come close to reaching 30 yet. No wife and no kids, ah the freedom, is keeping me young.

Happy Birthday Ice, you old guy you.

I've been told by my therapist that single men should adopt the theory/code that men in the military have and that they can morally date any woman half their age plus 7 years. So in theory, for you, 40 could be the new 27!!!!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

I do believe that you're only as old as you feel. I'm 44 but I honestly feel better now than I did at 34. I'm certainly having more fun now than I did 10 years ago! (a new, much nicer wife will do that!)

Belated Happy Birthday!

I was born in '46, believe me it's just a number that should be ignored most of the time. Trick is to stay healthy and enjoy your toys.
